In the deep mid winter - Wine Wednesday

Tomorrow at 12:28 pm Atlantic Time we will celebrate the Winter Solstice. Time to light the ole Yule log, fill the house with freshly cut evergreen boughs, and heat some glog to sip by the fire.
 
Once we survive the shortest day of the year, less than eight hours of daylight, we’ll turn the corner toward longer days and the coming spring. Alas, that spring is a long way off and we’ll have many weeks of cold and snow still to endure. At least we’ll have more daylight hours to gaze upon the frozen slush. Oh joy. Oh bliss.
 
           “Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and                    for a talk beside the fire:  it is the time for home.” Dame Edith Sitwell
 
            “No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn.” Hal Borland
