Things I Love About Winter

Giselle

* Walking on a cold clear morning where the frost glistens on the grass and trees.

* Warming up by the fire in the dark and watching the flickering patterns on the wall.

* Hot bath, jammies, cocoa, and a good movie.

* The dark evenings, just for that moment when you get back to your nice warm humble abode.

* Making homemade soup and bread to have after a long walk on a freezing day.

* I LOVE Christmas.

* Long lie-ins on Saturday mornings, reading and listening to the radio.

* Winter clothes are the best. Hats, gloves, scarves and boots, I love them all.

* People are just nicer to each other in December.

* Lying in bed listening to the wind and rain outside, all snug and cosy.

All of the above.
And of course SNOW!

I hate being cold but for some reason the second it starts snowing I don't feel cold anymore. :pac:

I love being in bed and hearing the wind outside, ooh, and rain on the window.

I also love the smell of air on a really cold morning - all crisp and fresh.

Cosy warm fire! Only nice thing about winter other than warm slippers and warm clothes and hot water bottle at the ready!

I like leaving a big handful of seed in the backyard for the robins (or any other hungry bird that wants something to eat). I should probably buy a bird feeder really.

Queen-Mise

i love winter for fashion. All my boots, scarfs, hats, dresses, coats etc.

cherryred

I love winter.

The excuse of "I can't come out, I'm all cosy by the fire" is universally accepted.

That moment when you pull back the curtain to see snow. Everything is blinding white and calm.

Hot Ribena is the best drink ever.

Getting the use what I consider to be the most civilised piece of technology we have yet created - the electric blanket.

I love the leaves falling off the trees, I love the cold mornings and the frost and I love snuggling up at night and watching a nice movie and having a lovely dins when it's freezing out and then cuddling in bed to keep warm after, bliss:D

Posy

I know it's been said a hundred times but..
CHRISTMAS, CHRISTMAS, CHRISTMAS!! The dark evenings when the Christmas lights have been turned on, the bright twinkling of them. They just make the place look like magic.
Walking home from work and thinking 'ooh, another Christmas tree up, that wasn't there yesterday.'

i hate the wind. My house is south facing. I hate the rain for the same reason. It keeps me awake at night.. However

I love fires.

I love all the lights on and sometimes mood lights.

I love all the red clothes, my other half looks fab in red.

I love christmas,christmas dinner and christmas television

No matter how bad a year it is I always make a point of enjoying christmas.

WindSock

Less traffic and less people in places. Not feeling obliged to go outside when the weather is good. Less kids hanging around and shouting outside. Things are cheaper too.

I love just reading this thread !!!! makes me smile to remember all the good things about winter, can be hard when its dark all the time to stay in a good mood.

I love the summer but I don’t mind the winter either. For some strange reason I have always thought that girls looked really cute in scarf’s and winter hats for some reason, weird I know.

Dozen Wicked Words

Love taking the dogs for a walk through the snow, they are fascinated by it.

And I love this song:

Hate frozen/burst pipes I had last year though!

ICE HOUSE

I love complaining about how cold it is,
until the summer arrives when I can start complaining about how hot it is.

StereoLove

Snow and wrapping up warm:)

WindSock

I love it when the air gets crisper. It feels nice and fresh and I imagine it is cleaning my lungs out. Especially when exhaling the condensation. I also like walking on the frosty crunchy grass with my boots and thick socks on, and the eerieness of the bare trees and low hanging sun in the mornings, when it hits the frost and makes everything sparkle.

Hells Belle

Hot water bottle with a fleece cover- old school but jaysus what an invention.

Also - clothes straight off the radiator :pac:

Banjo Fella

It hasn't happened yet this winter, but I love when it snows! In particular, I love those crisp, clear mornings after a night's snowfall, when everything is covered in a heavy blanket of snow and lit warmly by the sunlight. So many whites and blues and browns, it's all very beautiful and instantly puts me in a cheery festive mood.

Asphyxia

I love the sound of walking on the snow *crunch *crunch *crunch. Been doing it all day

dirtyghettokid

i love the beautiful sunrises and sunsets in the winter.......and the way the snow cleans off the bottom of my shoes

squeakyduck

Our water pipes have frozen over, which puts a bit of a dampener on everything. But my favourite thing is, I get two christmasses! Christmas christmas with my family, in the snow, which is gorgeous, big christmas dinner and st stephen's day beverages in the local. Then post-christmas christmas in my apartment with the lovely boyfriend. We have a real tree, my first ever non-artificial tree! What else... Christmas market in dublin- wonderful place. Especially at night with the bands and the lights. Having a break from college. The view of sunshine over a snow-covered landscape has to be one of my favourite things ever. Sitting in front of the fire with a giant mug of tea. Seeing the family and the nieces and nephews that I miss like crazy. In summary, Christmas is fantastic and Winter is great.

The one thing I like about winter is a crisp and brigh sunny day. And as long as there's no ice around I can jump on my bike and work up a good heat from whizzing around town. After that I come home, warm as toast, to a mug of hot chocolate and a snack.

I love the cold weather
