Quote of the Day
I like this quote by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, who was born on this day in 1807. As someone with a wanna be perfectionist nature, I've always been harder on myself than others have, because I know my potential and capabilities.
I absolutely love his handwriting!! I recently heard from my niece Amanda, who just started high school that they no longer teach cursive in school anymore. What a shame! Cursive when done right is so beautiful. I love his "D's". When we lived in Australia, for every class that we had and every project that we did, we got a grade for our work, and then a grade for our penmanship and neatness. We had a sheet with slanted lines that went under our paper, and you had to put one letter on each line, so everything was slanted and properly spaced out.

Season
February 27th falls within the Winter Season in the Northern Hemisphere.
Winter is one of the four seasons. It follows the Fall Season, and is before the Spring Season. It is the coldest and darkest season in the Northern Hemisphere. It also starts in one year, and ends in the next, so it straddles two different years.
Check out our Winter Season page for information about Winter, Winter Dates, Major Winter Holidays and Observances, Major Winter Festivals, Fun Facts About Winter, Winter Food Tips, Winter Gardening, Winter Preparation, Winter Quotes, and Winter Weather Information.
Kerry has put together some great information and tips on winter foods:
