This is my favorite time of year- I love autumn with all of its beautiful color and crisp air; I love falling leaves and hay rides and apple-cinammon anything. I love the winter, too! Aside from the freezing cold, the dry skin, the icy streets, the sleet, and the paying of taxes, I love the winter. Really, I do. I get to wear cute boots and see twinkling lights strung up everywhere and I get to sip egg nog as I wrap presents and watch my favorite old holiday movies. (There is nothing in the world more satisfying to me than perfect corners on a perfectly wrapped gift.
