S'more action.
The transition from Indian summer to winter last week was brutally abrupt, and the frigid arctic air mass that arrived Wednesday hasn’t left. Everyone likes to brag about our lows of -25º F but I think having "highs" only in the single digits is worse. In any case, it's a challenge to be joyous during the holidays. But there's a remedy ...... s'mores!
