It’s official! Winter has begun! And along with it, the cold, the early sunsets and depending where you live; snow. Our snowfall totals this year are right at about: one entire inch. Most people won’t miss the snow should it decide to pass us by, but I like to get one good snowfall. Do you too, or does snow, cold days and the sun’s setting early leave you feeling a little blue?
