With the first day of spring still a month away, we’ll have to put up with the chilly days of winter for a bit longer. While you wait for the seasons to change, there are still plenty of ways to have fun while staying warm indoors.
Listen to the Music
Now’s a great time to liven up the home with some music, so go ahead and turn up the radio or bring up your favorite playlist. You could also deep-dive into the music of artists you love, and listening to an album start-to-finish is a great way to experience the creativity of the musicians you enjoy most. CDs are coming back, and you could even mix your own for that perfect soundtrack to your day. If you happen to have a record player, you could even take those old records off the shelf and take some vinyl albums for a spin.
Spice Up Dinner
Even the most dedicated gourmands tend to stay in and eat more meals at home during the winter months, but that doesn’t mean that anyone has to settle for the same old dishes night after night. Take this opportunity to learn a few new recipes, whether you just want a new way to use old ingredients, or delve into the details of a specific culinary technique. You could browse online for tips and ideas, or invest in a few good cookbooks from old and new culinary creatives. Don’t hesitate to call up a relative to learn the secrets of those old family recipes, either. Once you’ve picked up a few kitchen tricks, you could even start crafting your recipes with all that newfound knowledge.
Chart a Course
While your next vacation might feel like a long time away, it doesn’t hurt to start planning now. Having a fun trip to look forward to can also help brighten up these chilly days, and planning can ultimately make your trip smoother. Consider the sort of sites and experiences you want to enjoy on your next excursion, then search for places that can provide the sort of memories you’ll talk about for years to come. Try a travel site like Only In Your State for destinations within quick driving distance, or Atlas Obscura if you want to discover something off-beat and unexpected.
