Winning Winter Woes

How many of you hate the crippling cold weather of winter?  I don’t believe the season to be hateful but the kind of weather the season brings, affects many people’s lives. Winter can be easier for some while for others it can be challenging. In any case, we all love having a cup of hot tea and getting under the warm blankets. Moreover, basking in the winter sun, having peanuts and oranges satisfy us to a next level.

What are your winter plans?

Besides waking up late, or struggling to get out of blanket, do you have any plans for the winter. I believe this Corona pandemic has already ruined everything, from our finances to our festivals but still there is hope that a vaccine would be available and we would be back to what we call our normal life.

All about the winter clothes!

After Dashain, all the winter clothes will be available in the market. From industry manufactured jackets to hand-woven sweaters, from warm thermals to fancy high-necks. So, have you already bought them? Or are you planning to buy? My favourite accessories would be a knitted sweater, gloves, muffler and socks. Yes, all knitted. Don’t you feel these knitted clothes are so warm and afterall it supports our local products?

Ahh! That masala Chiya

As a tea-lover basically, tea is never out of fashion either its a burning summer or the frosty winter. But especially during winter, the importance of a good tea can’t be summarized in words. And the milk tea with ginger, cloves, cardamom and cinnamon is just unbeatable.

Hot Baths

Winter season is all about the hot water baths. Don’t you think hot water baths are soothing? As scientific reports mention, there are various benefits to taking long hot showers. It has proved to lower sugar level, helps maintain blood pressure level, improves blood circulation in the body and reduces headaches.

Playing with the snow

How many of you are planning to visit Kalinchowk this winter? For some years, visiting Kalinchowk and playing with snow in winter has been on the trend. Some have already fulfilled their wish to visit this place and play with snow; and for some it’s still on their bucket list.

Chapped lips and dry skin: I got them too

One of the problems during winter is chapped lips and dry skin. I hate them too. Lip Balm and moisturizers, please save us.

Bring us the fire

The one thing that we like about winter is sitting near the fire, eating the roasted potatoes and being together with the family.

So, are you guys excited about this winter?

It’s a short and sweet one! I loved how you managed to jump from one point to the next. Apart from the weight of clothes we have to bear and the scarce rays of sun, winter is my favorite season. This is good, keep going!
