8 things we miss about warmer weather
Since we're painfully aware of being stuck in the throes of winter, it's hard not to think wistfully of warmer times.
Sand between your toes
How nice was it to have sand between your toes -- as opposed to sand on your roads?
Your car was actually clean
And you could wash it -- without having to worry about the windows freezing shut.
Smelling the flowers
Plants that aren't evergreen actually looked good.
You could eat outside
Remember that? When you could eat outside without seeing your breath?
Farmers' markets
Tomatoes -- and just about everything else -- are in season at outdoor farmers' markets in summer.
Summer beer
When the weather lightens up, so do the beers. Remember sipping a tall wheat beer on the patio?
Baseball
It'll be a while before we can watch the Brewers outside in Wisconsin without having to wear long underwear and hand warmers.Â
Ice cream
Sure, you can eat ice cream in the winter. But it's not the same. You can't go outside and walk around with it.
