Some cheerful things on a cold, cold day

November 30, 2007 by Jen

It's cold. Frightfully cold. The kind of cold that makes my bones feel chilly and puts me in hibernation mode.  Though born on a snowy day in New Brunswick, I somehow never transcended my genetic roots (India) to embrace my Canadian climate.  I detest the winter and wish I could crawl into … [Read more...]
