• Snow can be fluffy! Oh my gosh, it is possible to be hit by snow and it not feel like a cricket ball, how exciting!! It is not snowing at the moment, and there is very little snow settled outside. Alas ( Read more... )

UK snow isn't fluffy? . . . Well, I'll find out eventually!

Have you had poutine yet? You must have poutine. You simply must. It's perfect winter food.

It is not cold in buildings! DUH, but still! I was so prepared to shiver constantly, and so far I think I'm doing okay! I have been teased a little for crossing arms over in cold while people around me are wearing t-shirts, haha, but largely it has been successful so far and I am glad. True test will be tomorrow, where ( ... )
