Friday Five answers (3/6/26)

Ironically for me, it's unseasonably warm here this week! But thefridayfive questions are winter/snow related 😁

1. Do you know of any other words for snow? What's your favourite and why?

I suppose "flurry" and "blizzard" count, yes? I don't like actual blizzards, but I do love the word itself. I'm weirdly fond of words with double z's in them 😅

The Japanese word for snow is 雪 (yuki) which is also a word I like. (It's easy to remember)

2. What's your ideal temperature range for winter?

50-60F 😂 I don't tolerate cold very well so anything under 50 is unpleasant for me.

3. Favourite winter activity? What about it makes it your favourite?

I used to enjoy spending Saturdays in January/February walking through the woods. (Technically, I was hunting, but in reality, it was 99 percent just walking through the woods.) Anyway, if you go through the woods in winter, you can see better because there are fewer leaves, and you don't have to worry about snakes! It's very pretty.

Our hunting group doesn't get together anymore, so I haven't done this in years. But I do miss hanging out in the woods.

4. What are three things you can't do without when winter arrives?

My winter coat. Soup. Christmas decorations. (they make the cold months bearable 😁)

5. Do you have favourite winter holiday activities?

I enjoy putting up the aforementioned Christmas decorations! Holiday baking is nice too but I don't do it often.
