We live in Florida, so I can't honestly say we really *experience* winter. However, this has been a particularly nasty one by Florida standards.
If you live in a northern climate, feel free to just skip right over this post and go shovel your driveway for the 1,045,872nd time this winter.
It has been in the 40s every morning this week and -- gasp -- we've had frost on our car windshields! (Seriously, I had NO IDEA how to deal with this little predicament until The Smartest Man Alive clicked the defroster button on my dashboard and cranked the heat.)
My baby soft hands are now cracked and dry, and I've had a major headache for two days from traveling between the heat and cold. And God forbid it's dreary, cloudy, or rainy!
So, if you live in a northern climate AND you're still reading this, tell me how you survive MONTHS of this. What comforts you during the winter? We've made chicken 'n dumplings and soup this week, but that's getting old -- fast.
I never thought I'd wish for our Florida heat back. Rest assured, I'll be complaining about it come June. (The humidity! The heat! Can't we move up north?!)

Sarah, you crack me up! I love that you had no idea about the defrost button. It makes me miss you.
You should make comfort food like chicken and dumplings or chicken potpie. Smitten Kitchen's recipes for both are good. Or meatloaf and mashed potatoes. YUM. I'm making myself hungry.
