    It's one of our favorite days of the year - we love winter.

    On this, the shortest day of the year, I'll be serving short ribs, short-cut scalloped potatoes, a variety of "short" raw veggies (yeah, I know, that's pushing the "short" thing) and shortcake.

    I wouldn't say I celebrate but I love the shortest day of the year. I love winter and long cozy evenings.

    The cold earth slept below; Above the cold sky shone; And all around, With a chilling sound, From caves of ice and fields of snow The breath of night like death did flow Beneath the sinking moon.

    While there are various cultural and religious interpretations of the event, I simply see it as the end of one solar year and the start of a new one.
