Snow Light

The first snow of winter fell on Surrey last night and I woke to the beauty of snow light.

The time has arrived for knitting and sitting by the fire. Also, the time for cooking hearty winter soups and doing occasional bits of a certain kinds of baking -- gingerbread dogs and other winter and Christmas delights.

And of course, the time for donning toques and gloves and winter boots and going outside to walk around in the snow. It's also a perfect day to visit Christmas at Hycroft, and that's where we plan to be before long, providing the roads are passable.
