A Californian's Guide to Winter
Oct. 5th, 2006 02:29 pmIn my last post, I made reference to strange definitions of wintry things because here in California, we don't have winter like the rest of y'all do. So, for a bit of humor on this Thursday afternoon, I decided to share a few of them.
Can y'all think of any more? :)
- Winter
- The rainy season
- Snow
- What makes the mountains look pretty
- Ice
- What goes in your drink
- Frost
- What you do to a cake
- Blizzard

Can y'all think of any more? :)
