Teen Perspective: On Eating Snow

by Louise December 20th, 2010| Teen Perspective
Winter is my favorite season, and that's because I absolutely adore snow. I love sledding, skiing, playing in the snow, and of course, coming inside to enjoy the cup of hot cocoa that always follows a few hours of activity in the snow. Shoveling? Okay, I don't enjoy that
