The feeling of warmth and togetherness gets me.

The aesthetic of trees, lights, holly, and snow is pure bliss.

I know another year is over and I have spring to look forward to.

BING MF CROSBY (and I grew up in Romania, was born at the end of communism) and his fantastic voice.

And more recently I've turned to celebrating in a more pagan way - by hosting dinners on the Solstice.

I just love Christmas, I can't wait to put up my tree! (Putting it up early isn't really a thing here, I might set it up around the 20th, for reference).

More seasonally related but I've come to really not enjoy peak Summer's as much. The 10 year old in me is bitching and moaning but they truly aren't enjoyable, Fall is the best what with the temperment climate and leave colors but probably some of the most blissful days happen in the winter with soft snow covered ground, clear skies with sunshine, no wind and maybe a balmy 20F. That's when you go for a nature hike or run outside or ice fish.

Summer is overrated by far.

The best times of year are September, October and May.

Summer is for hiding from the sun and trying to not get sweat-glued to your chair.
