It seems kinda silly to me though, that this marks the middle of winter... We're gonna have snow on the ground from now till march... and we didn't get snow till late November... How in the hell does that make Dec 21st the middle of winter, you tell me?!?!

That aside, any excuse for good wishes, food and drink shared with old friends and sympathetic magic that get's good and sympathetic eh!!

Keep shoveling folks! Spring is coming someday!
