While it isn't much more than a light dusting, today marks the day of the first snow of winter. When else does precipitation bring about excitement? I am almost never excited to see rain. Unless I feel the land is in great need. Or I didn't feel like watering. Or.... I really did not want to go to that thing that will be cancelled because of rain.
Snow conjures up images of play, of fire places and hot chocolate. Why, I can just see me now curled up in front of the fireplace with a quilt, a book, and a cup of hot chocolate. Okay, my little electric "fireplace", a Snuggie, a Kindle, and a smoothie. Who am I kidding?
You finally feel that Christmas is right around the corner. It has nothing to do with the store displays, or the Christmas music that has been playing over the airwaves since the day after Thanksgiving. No my friend, it is that first sighting of a snowflake.
