I Feel Your Pain
A few weeks ago on Facebook, a friend who recently moved to San Francisco from Toronto posted a screen shot of his weather app when it was 70 degrees. I remember thinking that it was a novice move, too cruel for those in the midst of an historic winter. Yet I appreciated as a new Californian, his exuberant glee. Hang in there winter warriors. Spring is on the way.

What a striking photo! You’ll have to count me as one of those who love seasonal changes, though, including the snows of winter. That said, I’m ready for spring (Jan. was warm, but Feb. was much colder than average)–with the kitchen remodel, I didn’t get to enjoy the cooking that (usually) accompanies the snow and cold (hey, prime time for stews and braises). Now, with the end in sight (I’ll be cooking in it within a week), temperatures are slated to warm up. Of course.
I do feel seasonal changes in California. They’re just more subtle.
I love the cold and am thrilled to get one last big storm in Philadelphia. Wait a few years and I wonder if Mr. Toronto will start to miss having four seasons?
I’ll be tracking Mr. Toronto and will keep you posted.
