Loving right now....

Gosh it's cold at the moment! The weather is rather crazy with tornado's and hail yesterday in our part of the world. And some rain - which is so appreciated. I am not going to lie - I am not a fan of the cold. But I am loving some of the little things that make the cold a bit more bearable.

I am loving going to the gym  during lunch times. It warms me up totally - especially those 5 minutes I spend in the sauna after exercising. I used to hate going ot the gym in winter - now I love it.

Citrus - all the glorious citrus. Oranges, mineolas, naartjies.... name it. I love it. Not a fan of pomelo though.

Electric warm water bottles - every night they get heated and placed in beds with little (and not so little) bodies to keep us all nice and toasty. I also think that it aids in falling asleep - I get that nice warm sleepy feeling if my feet are nice and warm.

Boots - I love love love boots. I found the perfect Jeep boots this year and promptly bought it it black and brown.

Scarves - I love pretty soft scarves. They keep you warm but also add a splash of colour to any outfit.

So what are you loving despite the cold or because of the cold?

    Oooh I'm so behind on all the blogs I follow, but I'm here now, with a glass of red, and I'm catching up!
    Flip well done @ going to gym in winter, what a good idea to sauna!!
    Boots and scarves are awesome.

    I'm loving soups and stews and pizza and wine. You see a theme here? Oops!!

    Scarves and the way hot and spicy food tastes better when it's cold.

      I enjoy a good curry any time of the year but in winter it's fantastic

    Love that everything is turning lovely and green instead of brown and dead.

    Well, I could write many posts about all the things I love about winter....

    the cold weather nipping at your face, mugs of tea and hot chocolate, pasta, soup, curries, spicy anything, scarves, coats, gloves, hugs, my electric blanket, and so on and so on :)

    I love winter. Dread summer. Exercising at the gym in winter is usually fun as it is not as fun. And my electric blanket love the warm toasty feeling. So much so that we even got one for the lounge for the rare days we watch TV

    Food wise my diet remains the same all year round if I feel like a salad I have it even in winter and if want soup in summer I gobble it down :)
