I love winter in North America.
There's nothing as emotionally satisfying as leaving work at 5 pm in the dark, nor as serene as getting blasted by freezing air while waiting for the car heater to warm up.
Since most of us are probably dreading the onset of Spring, I'll offer one reason to look ahead: summer fruits!
I'm not talking about the homosexual snowbirds returning from Palm Springs.
I used to hate fresh fruits as a fatty (except pineapple). Now, as a fit-fatty-at-heart, summer has become a veritable smorgasbord of good, inexpensive fruit! Strawberries, peaches, watermelon, raspberries, blueberries, etc. etc. etc.! It's a lot easier to eat of lot of them and stay fit than ice cream.
If a fruit company ever makes a commercial about summer fruits, maybe this could be the slogan:
"Summer fruits make summer the 3rd season of the year!"
