Here in Minnesota, our winters can sometimes start to drone on. 6+ months of short, gloomy days and frigid temps really start to take their toll once the Holiday glow subsides. In preparation for the winter drudgery ahead, I’ve made a list of things I’d like to accomplish during the winter months in hopes that it will help keep my spirits up over the long haul. Below is the list so far. What’s on your to-do list this winter?
- Plan the details of our Spring trip abroad!
- Take swing dancing lessons.
- Learn how to make Norwegian Krumkake for Christmas.
- Take a ski weekend away in Lutsen, MN.
- Plan a spa day.
- Go snowshoeing after (or during) a good snowfall.
- Make a wool felt ball rug.
- Have an impromptu sledding party.
- Go ice skating at Rice Park in St. Paul.
- Learn how to make croissants from scratch via Craftsy.
- Go to the St. Paul Winter Carnival.
