I like wearing new fuzzy scarves (or moustache cowls).
I love the smell of snow and the cold fresh feeling in my nose, funny as it might be! Right now we're having really cold weather here, and I love it!
I like using my cozy quilt made by my great grandmother when the weather turns cold.
I'll have to copy your idea, because I don't really like a single thing about the cold. I think snow is beautiful, but I'd rather look at it while sitting in front of a hot fire.
Making snowmen was always fun. =)
Thanks for a chance to win.
I love the way the sunlight glistens on freshly fallen snow, and the beautiful hoarfrost that gently coats branches, and twigs, and even cobwebs and blades of grass.
LOVELY giveaway!!!! i love needing to warm up the best about the cold. :-) cozy sweaters, hot baths, hot chocolate... yum!
It's gumbo weather!!
Thanks for hosting the giveaway. I love snow! And watching my dog enjoy the snow too!
I like how it lets the flowers and trees rest up for the spring. Thanks for the chance. I enjoy seeing what you are working on.
I do like wearing sweaters in the winter; I can't think of anything else that I like about cold weather.
What I like about cold weather is getting cozy in my quilt room and not even thinking about going outside! Thanks for a great giveaway!
Homemade chicken soup and hot chocolate, not at the same time. ;-> Toni Anne
I like being snowed in with sewing supplies handy!
What I like about the cold, is being comforted with hot drinks!
I like curling up in my rocking chair and hand quilting a big warm quilt.
I love sitting by a warm, crackling fire and snuggling under cozy quilts!
What I like about the cold?? Being in Florida! These old bones can't take the cold weather like they could when I was younger! Love the tonga treats! Thanks for the chance!
I love that you can bake all kinds of yummy things and cook casseroles and chilis!! Nice warm, yummy to the tummy stuff!! Oh! Also, quilt a quilt or sew a binding without sweating bullets! Thanks for the giveaway, I'd LOVE to win!
Stews and soups, and call me crazy, but I love a burst of cold air seeping through my out of date windows as I am dozing in bed under a warm quilt.
Thank you!
There isn't much about the cold that I like, but I do enjoy watching the snow fall, when it's those big wet flakes! It's always so pretty! Thanks for the giveaway! :0)
The only thing I like about the cold is the starry nights when it's freezing, but that's about it lol.
I enjoy the cold when I can be home snuggled by the fire under an nice cuddly quilt. I actually love snow storms when I am "stuck" home and can quilt all day!!
Nothing! I hate the cold.

The smell of woodsmoke outside. Warming fire in the fireplace. Redskins football. Chili, homemade soups, and snuggling under a quilt or one of my Mom's knit afghans. Thanks for a chance at your giveaway!
It's invigorating! And, it often brings snow. I always say a cold day w/out snow is a sad waste of cold.
I love skiing! Thanks for the giveaway!
What a fun giveway!!!! I was just out reading blogs (been a bad bad blog reader lately) and what would you know...this awesome giveaway. Thanks!
Er I absolutely without a single shred of doubt in my mind hate the cold.. just plain hate it, it brings out the worst in me..I get stupid and just don't know what to do with myself when I am cold..I prepare for winter as though it will be an ice age, and I live in TX.. so the only thing I can think of.. is it gives me a great reason why I cannot leave my house and I must keep myself occupied with crafts or quilting.
The cold weather gives me an excuse to stay in the house to quilt or just read by the fire and I don't need to feel guilty about doing this as I do in the nicer weather when I should be out working in the yard.
Cold days here are usually clear, bright and sunny. I love that. The rest of the winter is usually so grey.
I love winter - I love how crisp and clean everything is. I love walking in the snow with my dog, or better yet snowshoeing.
eww I dont like the cold, the only good thing is the excuse to sit and handsew with hot chocolate
Flannel sheets, and snuggling up in bed with my husband and now my baby girl too! Especially if it's raining outside as well :)
It rarely gets REALLY cold where I live, but I love it when it does, because that means no bugs or snakes in my yard! (I know, that's just sad, isn't it?)
I don't like winter. Not one little bitty bit. But it does take care of bugs for a while. No mosquitoes and no gnats.
I like to make snow candles (outside) when the snow settles!
I like staying inside and sitting in fron of the fireplace!
Not a fan of the cold. The only thing I like about it is that winter means spring is right around the corner.
I like that the cold is not here for long in South Carolina :)
I like crawling in bed under a down comforter to get warm.
I like bundling up under the covers.
I love the way the trees look when they're completely bare of leaves. The design of the branches is incredible.

Being in Florida, I'm not a huge fan of cold. Dusting off coats is kind of fun.

I like how cozy it seems when you come back inside! Not a big fan of the cold. Thanks for the chance at your giveaway.
I like sitting by the fire sipping hot vanilla. And sewing all winter!
I like snowshoeing. and flannel sheets :)
My goodness... something I like about the cold. I'm one of those people that are prety much always shivering and complaining about needing the heat turned up, but I guess the one good thing about the cold is having an excuse to bundle up in blankets and flannels and huddle in to watch a movie or read a book.

Those look beautiful -- thank you! I love to come in to my nice warm house and put slippers on. Does that count?
Everything I like about the cold is to sit inside and drink tea or hot chocolate! But we have a long period of cold, I'm from Russia.
I enjoy looking at its splendor from the inside of my house!!!
I miss the brisk feeling of being in a hurry that I associate with colder weather. There is nothing quite so beautiful as fresh-fallen snow!
I like the rosy pink cheeks of my students when they come in from Recess after being outside playing in the winter time.
Regards from Western Canada,
Anna
I love taking my kids sledding and snowshoeing
I like basking in the heat of a woodstove or fireplace.

I actually really dislike the cold... But if I could turn it into something that I do like, it would have to be all the blankets I sleep under in the winter. I like to be all bundled up :)
I like winter walks in the cold and crispily fresh air.

The best thing about cold weather is I don't have to move the grass.

I love walking through the snow on a cold winter night, there's just something magical about it!

I would love for it to snow here in Salt Lake City in the valley there is no show and my kids want to go out and play.
I bought snowshoes a year ago and haven't had enough snow to take them out of their bag. In Minnesota that's crazy! Thanks for a great giveaway~!
I love the snow, but not if I have to go out in it!
I love the cold and snow, but VA is not the best place to enjoy it. Cross country skiing or tubing are my favorite snow activities.
Ohh another snowman fanatic ... luckily I get to use my kid sisters as alibi .. or sometimes my red winter jacket and my rainbow hat .. you can't really tell that there is a mid-20ies person making the snowmen in the park if you don't look too close
I like curling up under a warm quilt.
I love to watch it snow.
i am a knitter so i LOVE it when old man winter comes round !!! :)

Thanks for the giveaway! It doesn't get very cold here in TX, but when it's chilly outside I like to have hot chocolate. Kinda hard to enjoy at any other time of the year when it's sweltering outside. wonderlandbyalyce at gmail dot com
In the Midwest we generally get a lot of snow and sometimes that means a snow day for the kids. Love the surprise of the announcement that school is closed! Thanks for your giveaway.
I like the hot chocolate you get to drink when you come inside.
I like that I don't live in it anymore!
I love having grown children so they can shovel the snow. Thanks for the opportunity on the draw. Merry Christmas to you.

Hot chocolate and the fireplace.

I like the snow, and since it doesn't snow unless it's cold, that's my favorite thing about cold weather. Second favorite thing is that there are no snakes and the spiders and scary bugs die. Terrible of me, but I hate snakes and spiders.
I love the snow & fresh air during the winter. A great chance to wear my hand knit scarves.
nicolesender(at)yahoo(dot)com
Since I live in Florida it is seldom that our "cold" is really that cold but it is a nice change to go out wearing a jacket or sweater. And the best thing is to climb into bed and get under a quilt to stay warm.
Hot chocolate when I come in! Thanks for this chance.
I like sledding & skiing, but apart from that I would rather be inside. :)
peachstateme(at)hotmail(dot)com

Hot chocolate!! Yum
That I get to wear coats! They sit all sad year round until winter hits again.
I just like the cold period! You can always add layers of clothes if you need them. It's my favorite time of the year! :) Thanks for such an awesome giveaway! Happy Holidays to You! :)
i like when you walk outside and the sky has the lavender haze in the evening and you can just smell that the snow is coming. That is one of the things I miss the most now that I live in Central Florida.
Coming inside and bundling up in a quilt - just don't like the cold!
I love to sit in front of the fireplace with cocoa, christmas lights on, and holiday music!
Hot chocolate and a good book under a warm quilt and home made soup!
Coming in from the cold! And smoke puff breaths. And this little verse from two sides of the window from the book Arm in Arm by Remy Charlip:
Isn't it nicer to be in a nice warm bed rather that out in the cold?
Isn't it nicer to be playing out in the cold than inside in bed?
The only thing I like about the cold is snow. If it's going to be cold it should be snowing. thanks for the chance to win!

I love going skiing!
I like wearing interesting tights, winter books, and snuggly handknitted cardigans.
I love the way freshly fallen snows looks before anyone has walked on it. It sparkles.
We get a lot of winter here in Alberta. It's hard to love it, but today I was really stunned by the beauty of fresh snow on branches, while the snushine made the air sparkle with flakes drifting off the trees! Wonderful.
Thanks for the chance!
Wearing scarves and mittens.
I love watching the snow fall at night
