I AM NOT sure why―when it happens every year―I am so unprepared for winter. The cold. The dampness. The continually overcast skies. And most of all, the darkness. Yes, the days have been, happily, incrimentally longer every day since winter solstice, but tonight, the sun still set 4:17pm. 4:17pm! On Sundays, for us, everything moves a little more slowly, so by 4:00, we’ve barely just had our lunch. The day is just beginning for us, except that it isn’t. According to winter, it’s the end. Time to draw the curtains and turn on the lamps. Time to feel sleepy, eventhough we’ll still be up for at least another 8 hours. The only thing that has made winterime tolerable though, is how lovely things look in the English countryside under a soft blanket of freshly fallen snow. The wildly pink sunsets are stunning as well, and there’s cake and frangipane and tarts and a cosy fire in the living room of our cottage that makes things feel really rather romantic. And so, here are a few beautiful photos of wintertime this year…
