Ode to winter

The thing about this winter is that most of it has been plentifully snow-free.  However, just this past week, most of my hopes of only having to put down a little amount of snow-melting salt on my walk were potentially dashed by all the storms that lept out in our mild California-like, Vermont weather.

Others like Pascal and Harvey hold onto pretty snow memories because pondering possible ski trips politically lets them be seen as totally marketing their movie star looks on the slopes. I, on the other hand, am not so wild for snow and instead, am enticed by hot chocolate au lait as I land on my mostly soft mattress.

Ok, so I am now keeping my large winter coat out until helluva warm winter ends.
