thoughts on snow...

It snowed here this weekend, making it seem as though this winter will be long and filled with lots of precipitation (we've already had a few major storms; even a thunderstorm, complete with lightning). I don't mind- in fact, I enjoy winter.

Sure, the sunless days get old by February...digging out your car only to have the spot taken over by someone who thinks they own it, and shows said ownership by filling the spot with random pieces of lawn furniture and broken wood (true)...the added stress of no plowing/salt (thanks, Mayor D)...wait a second. I think I'm getting kind of sick of winter!

Maybe if everyone dealt with it like so...

In Chicago, people rarely ever shovel their front stoop, much less the bike lane.

More fun, after spending the weekend holed up...
Flimsy, but cute clothing from Eternal Child (via Vintage Mint).

Still needing to finish some presents.
And why does everyone look good on a bike in Europe?
