Chilly temperatures beckon warmer dishes; luscious morsels to snuggle the belly and cozy us up. Growing up in a tropical country with only two seasons and little seasonal variation of temperature, I don\u2019t recall paying much attention to colder weather seasonal dishes. In fact, summer bounties \u2014 garden-grown and local tropical fruits \u2014 were more often awaited with much anticipation rather than winter produce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After more than 15 years spent living in countries with colder winters, I\u2019ve grown quite fond of the seasonal fall and winter produce. And I have to say, colder weather \u2014 although probably not a -40 \u00b0C Canadian winter \u2014 agrees better with me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My love for baking contributes greatly to this but mostly I find the cooler months much more peaceful. It\u2019s a time for renewal and spending more time with myself indoors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apart from cooking, I love spending time crafting, painting, crocheting and watching Japanese animes. If I had a sewing machine, I\u2019d most probably be sewing too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mushi-Shi<\/a> is one anime that I very much enjoyed during the winter months just cuddling up under the duvet with a hot mug of chocolate and cake<\/a>. The soundtrack is blissfully soothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
