Winter warmers

This winter has probably been one of Cape Town’s coldest thus far. And keeping warm in these weather conditions is essential. I truly believe that winter is a wonderful season, even though it is the coldest season of the year. Even though winter has its disadvantages there are also many advantages. During this season there are many things that could be done. Most individuals prefer staying indoors during this season because of the cold whilst others are fine with going out as usual. There are many fun, exciting and relaxing activities to keep oneself occupied with when staying indoors. These activities include partaking in various exciting board games, watching movies, reading books, trying out new winter recipes and relaxing in front of the fire place with a lovely warm cup of hot chocolate.


Each of us have our different preferences when it comes to keeping warm and busy during the winter season. My personal favourite winter warmers are relaxing in front of the fire place; watching movies underneath warm blankets; cooking delicious warm dishes, layering myself with clothing; turning on my electric blanket when I get into bed, playing board games with friends and family; drinking lots of hot chocolate with marshmallows in it and exercising.

Winter is the perfect opportunity to spend loads of time with family and friends. But keeping warm is certainly the most important during this season. In cold weather, layered clothing is essential. I personally believe that one should wear at least three layers of clothing. Eating warming foods is also good during winter. This covers a large spectrum of foods. As you’ve read and already know there are many winter warmer tips which we could use. So don’t forget to keep warm!
