1. Number of daylight hours in your neck of the woods?
- Sunrise at 07:31, Sunset 17:47 (it will be 1 minute, 56 seconds longer than yesterday).
Answer directly stolen from ED because I have no clue.
2. Food you eat this time of year that you might not eat during the other seasons?
Big chunky soups and chocolate. But not together !
3. Number of times this month you have had take out food?
- None. I don’t get take out that often anyway because it’s expensive and mostly disappointing.
4. Do you drink anything different in your coffee this time of year? (flavorings etc)
- Yuck. What a nasty idea. Coffee is coffee isn’t it ? If I wanted to drink a different flavour, I’d choose a different drink!
5. Can you ice skate?
I used to skate quite well but now I’m scared of falling and breaking bones. I have a very problematic wrist already. I definitely don’t need to add to it.
6. How bad does it hurt when you sled?
If it hurts, why do it ?
7. Would you like freezing rain and ice -or- big fat snowflakes with a howling wind?
What kind of option is that ? Greece has the “pleasure” of my company partly because I don’t do cold. In any form.
8. What do you stock (keep on hand) for winter vegetables?
How do people keep vegetables in stock ? I buy fresh from the laiki (market) every week, mostly whatever is in season.
9. What do your pets think of the change in weather?
I used to have a tortoise who was as unimpressed about winter as I am.
10. Snow tyres or all-season?
Pardon?
11. Do you have winter sheets for your bed?
No.
12. Have you ever barbecued in the winter?
Yes I have and it’s more fun than you’d imagine!
13. Anything you miss?
Being warm ?
14. Do you go out as much on the weekends?
I do but mostly to indoor places
15. How many birthdays?
Lots
16. Do you go to bed earlier or later?
Same.
17. Do you like to shovel?
Is that rude ?
18. Do you own a roof rake?
I have a rake but I don’t know if that’s the same as a roof rake?
19. Do you eat ice-cream in the winter?
I would if I could get a regular supply of decent mint chocolate chip.
20. Mittens or gloves?
Neither. Cold is bad. Stay indoors.

I, too hate the cold and so we have winter sheets here in the western Peloponnese. In fact, I have two sets so I can wash one and put the other on the bed. But maybe its because I’m American. I know that’s why I have a clothes dryer because I can’t put up with moist clothing for days on end. Also, I’m a true princess in that I have silk glove liners (thermal underwear for my hands)!
