Us New Englanders have been in the thick of winter for quite a while now.  And of course, I’m looking forward to the warmth of spring, and wearing flip flops well before the temperature actually warrants it.  However, there’s more snow projected for this weekend, so it seemed like a good time to list some activities for all the snow lovers and those less than pleased with winter’s dander.

For rhe Great (Snowy) Outdoors

  • Make snow angels
    • I’m embarrassed to say that I haven’t made snow angels since I was a freshman in college, which really means it’s been too long, especially when you factor in how much snow we’ve gotten this year alone.
  • Throw a snowball
    • You really can’t go wrong with this one… unless you miss your mark. Oops.
  • Snowshoe to work (or anywhere you need to go)
    • Or to the public transit that will get you to your final destination. It’s environmentally friendly, a workout, and makes passersby chuckle.
  • Polar Bear Plunge
    • Irregardless of the fact that I think people who skinny dip through holes in ice may have lost a few too many marbles, this one goes on the bucket list. May be this year is the year. 
  • Snowman scene
    • Instead of making a lame and lonely single snowman, create a whole snow family. There’s plenty of a snow around, so go big!

The Warmer Indoors

  • Hibernate
    • Seriously, sometimes it’s just nice to nestle in with a blanket, a book, or a whole season of Mad Men or Rome. (Thanks to @hublawer for that last one.)
  • Stock up on tea
    • A hot cup of tea with honey, lemon or even milk, if you’re one of those people (I am), warms you from the inside out. Nummy, yum, yum.
  • Build a fire
    • A fireplace would be ideal; however, if you don’t happen to have one, I hear the MBTA may have a few steel reinforced trash cans they’d part with on the cheap. (Seriously though, do not set a fire in a trash can, no matter how safe it seems. I don’t want to get sued. Thanks.)
  • Prepare food
    • Get your crockpot started in on dinner when you first wake up.  Turn the waffle maker on for breakfast. And get the oven going for all your baking delight. If your food projects don’t turn out, you’ll probably have heated up the place trying.
  • Roll out your mat
    • I suppose you could expect this from a yoga teacher, but one of the best snow days I’ve had this year was largely because I rolled my mat out well before everyone else woke up and rocked a home practice.  And because I had practiced, I didn’t mind leading a class in the living room for everyone else a few hours later.  If you don’t happen to have a yoga teacher spending the night in your place, there are great resources available online (Yoga Zone on Hulu, MyYogaOnline, and Yoga Vermont on YouTube). 
If we actually get any more snow, how will you pass the time?
