Day 10: What do you miss most about Winter when...

I miss snow days; the hope of a day off from school or a 2-hour delay was always exciting. I miss how resistant I was to the cold & wind; I could stay out in the snow for hours. I miss the excitement of New Year’s; trying to stay up late wasn’t easy. I miss getting valentines at school for Valentine’s Day. I miss the Christmas vacation from school.

Day 9: What do you dislike most about Winter?

I hate the cold, freezing temperatures of winter. I live in Pennsylvania, which is perfect because I get snowy winters and hot summers. As I’ve grown up, I’ve increasingly hated the cold. In recent years, I’ve realized that I can get cold pretty quickly, and it’s miserable to be cold. I can’t do anything at home if I’m cold; I just have to stay bundled up or...

Day 8: What do you love most about Winter?

Snow makes winter worthwhile. Snow is everything to me when it comes to winter. There cannot be a good cold winter without it. Snow makes for beautiful landscapes and backyards and houses and everything in between, especially when there are icicles. Snow is enjoyable when it’s deep - perfect for snow forts and tunnels and all kinds of childish fun. Sledding is the best of all when plenty of...

Myself On Taylor Swift's B-Day

Not the best lighting. Bracelet crazy, just like Taylor. Also, sporting the Speak Now bracelet. Showing off the Love Love Love bracelet and #13. Lip-syncing to “Speak Now”.

Day 6: Favorite Holiday Story

I honestly don’t know many holiday stories, sadly. It’s kind of by default that How The Grinch Stole Christmas! by Dr. Seuss is my favorite. The book and the cartoon have always been in my life. I can’t say that for any other story. How The Grinch Stole Christmas is a delight, a classic. It’s a story that anyone and everyone can enjoy. It has the wonderful message of...

Day 5: Favorite holiday present you’ve received in...

I’ve received numerous wonderful presents, and there are many favorites. Two years ago I got an iPOD Nano (to replace my dead iPOD Mini). In 2006 I got some Grey’s Anatomy gear - calendar, journal, and t-shirt. I received my first portable CD player one year, a ornament tree another year (that I use for keychains). I remember the joy of opening up the soundtrack for Mad About You, a...

Day 4: Favorite Holiday Snack/Cookie

I’ve never had a favorite holiday food. There are many unique treats that are only around in the holiday season. One that comes to mind is candy canes. I don’t care for them, at least not the regular peppermint kind. What I’ve enjoyed most are chocolate chip cookies and Hershey Miniatures - two treats that are around all year. I remember the cookies being baked and kept in...

Day 2: Favorite Holiday Tradition

For my whole life, my parents & I have had Christmas Eve dinner at my paternal grandparents’ house. On Christmas Day we see my grandparents again at our house, and later, we use to visit with family at my maternal grandparent’s house. The traditions have changed since my maternal grandparents no longer host Christmas dinner. We don’t venture out on Christmas Day anymore. And...
