In the spirit of Christmas, I wore a green dress to the Christmas Eve service. Finding something appropriate for both the weather and holiday was difficult until I remembered the sleeveless dress I purchased last spring. When the high temperature in Burlington, Vermont is 68 degrees, you can imagine the high in the more southern city of Raleigh, North Carolina — a balmy 77 degrees. Then, there’s Boston… 69, New York City… 72, Norfolk, VA…82, Naples, FL… 89!
Missing the normal holiday temperatures? Turn on the air conditioning, put on your fuzzy jammies, warm socks and snuggle with your family while reading these snowy books.
