1. WHAT DO YOU DO IN THE WINTER THAT BRINGS YOU JOY? I like to do little things by going for a walk, reading a book, blogging, treat myself to flowers, exercise, and go out to lunch with a friend.
2. HOW DO YOU STAY WARM AND COZY? If I'm not leaving the house, I love wearing a black long sleeve top, a sweater/cardigan/sweatshirt, and black jogger pants to stay warm. If I'm going out to dinner, I like wearing black or straight leg jeans and a turtleneck sweater with black boots. I bought the black sweater shown below from Amazon. It's so comfortable and keeps me warm.
I also love taking a hot shower at night and getting into comfortable pjs, a bathrobe, and be on the couch with a blanket and watch TV or read a book.
3. WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS WINTER? I enjoyed for the first time in two years a few snow storms this winter. The snow storms weren't huge storms like we've had in the past. The snow was pretty to look at and not so bad or deep to shovel the snow.
4. FAVORITE WINTER ACTIVITIES? I love taking walks on sunny days and walking in the snow. We planned a trip last year to Maine, and it was fun going there off season. We visited Portland, Maine and it wasn't crowded and we went shopping at the LL Bean store during a snow storm. I love reading a book, crocheting a small project, watching a movie, and blogging.
5. FAVORITE MONTHS OF WINTER? I like February because we celebrate Valentine's Day. I also like the month of March because we like to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. I usually like to celebrate the occasion by making Irish Soda Bread or muffins. We always like to go out to a local pub to have our traditional Irish meal of corned beef and cabbage.
7. GAS OR WOOD BURNING FIREPLACE? I don't have either one. A gas fireplace sounds nice to me because you don't have to worry about putting wood in the fireplace. It must be nice watching the fire and staying warm and cozy.
8. FAVORITE WINTER BEVERAGE? I love a hot coffee or hot latte.
9. FAVORITE WINTER MOVIES? I just watched Paddington Bear with my daughter and I thought this was the cutest movie.
10. HOW DO YOU STAY HEALTHY IN WINTER? When the weather permits, I go to my gym at least three times a week. I usually walk to and from my gym which is a twenty minute walk. I usually do a weights and Zumba class. I try to drink lemon water or homemade iced green tea and I try to get a good night sleep.
