Having the oven pumping, pots boiling on the stove, the kitchen full of steam and delicious smells...stews and pies and curries and casseroles and soups and more, and HOT desserts, like crumbles and puddings. Eating a beautiful hot meal and feeling wonderful and warmed through, washing it down with a glass of wine and feeling even cosier. As opposed to summer: peeling your sweaty self off the couch to organise a few carrots and a piece of lettuce from the barely coping fridge, moving slowly to avoid further sweat. Upon eating you feel heavy and hotter than ever, alcohol equals instant headache and doing the washing up is like a half-hour in hell. Oh and I love the black warmers without buttons! Winter cooking!

There's just something about the cold and snuggling into a giant, heavy pile of blankets that makes for good sleep. As I am one of those people who get very paranoid about my much-needed beauty sleep, this is a very good thing indeed. (Though this has been mentioned before), having a boyfriend next to you as a convenient hot water bottle isn't bad either. :) Hello :)

All the whilest doing the occasional shift at my local Kmart folding towels and chatting up cowboys. A big yee-hah to the 'Vintage Style Teal Crochet Armwarmers' too.

I love winter for its wild storms. I am drawn to stand out in the rain and listen to the wind roar. I don't know why, I just can't help myself. The streets are usually deserted and it seems you are all alone, but I do look a little crazy! My favourites are the Long Length Navy Crochet Armwarmers With Vintage Buttons :- ) Storms.

I live in the Rural South of the United States and it can get really, REALLY cold. I'm cold-natured to begin with, so I have to bundle up like an eskimo. But that gives me the oppurtunity to layer all my cute striped long sleeve shirts, break out my super cute heavy coat and beg all my friends to make me brightly colored scarves. But I have to say that my favorite thing about winter is the air. The South is notorious for being very humid, but in the winter the humidity is gone, leaving the air so crisp and clean. If feels like you can see for miles and miles and miles! It's like you can see little frost fairies whirling around, shaking the dead trees or even kissing your exposed cheeks. And when it snows on very special occasions, if you stand in the sun and watch the snow fall it looks like glitter cascading from the sky. That and I think "Winter" is one of the most beautiful names ever. I'm going to name my daughter that... Whenever I have one. >.>; And my favorite arm warmers are the Long Length Black Crochet with Vintage Buttons.

I love everything about winter, but my absolute favorite thing would have to be seeing my breath when I exhale. There is something so frivilous and special about it; it takes me right back to being a kid and seeing frost for the first time and thinking that it was snow. Every winter I look forward to being able to see the clouds of breath when I exhale, just so I can feel happy and silly all at once.
