What is it about spring that makes people feel great? Is it just the warm weather and the ability to open the windows without freezing? Doesn’t anyone love winter, I do. I love playing in the snow with my little one. I love making all different kinds of soup. I love baking when it warms the house instead of creating a sweltering inferno. And who doesn’t love the winter holidays.
