I get a little worried that I am going to be one of those crabby old hermit ladies, I so love my lazy weekends.

The power most often goes out, so TV is out of the question. I love curling up to read with a booklight, the periodically falling asleep, waking back up to read, falling asleep again... you get the idea. Always, of course, with sleeping cats and open windows so we can stare at the lightning. Here in the South, hibernation days usually come around because of BIG thunderstorms rather than snow.

Ideally, it would involve a marathon of cheesy reality tv -- Project Runway or Top Chef, depending on what's "in season."

That hotel looks AMAZING and it's only 5 hrs south from me :) I've never heard of it before. FYI, in Madison, WI is the most awesome little B & B called The Canterbury Inn... each room is from one of the Canterbury Tales. It's above a bookstore / coffeeshop, and the whoe caboodle is in a restored historic building :) OMG viajera!

Last snow day was banana cake with cream cheese icing and Prison Break. Getting high, baking, and tucking into an entire television series.

I'm actually venturing out tomorrow to see my godmother tomorrow (at the the first place in NYC that I ever had a meal back when I was ten), but I think there will be lots of lounging around and some movies being played over this weekend. And speaking of movies--GoodFellas has been playing on Saturdays very often lately around these parts, and I CANNOT TURN AWAY FROM IT, unless it's after the point where Henry Hill gets raided in 1980. Working out will also be involved because I work out at home, but it gives me a sense of accomplishment (along with making awesome dough, of course).

My best wishes for a joyous holiday, no hangovers and lots of hamantaschen. :-) On a snow day, I like to go out and shovel the snow. Really, I do! I love the quiet and seeing everyone excited and happy with the weather. And it's so beautiful! Then I crawl in bed with kitties and a good book and read and nap. Aaaaah, lovely.

The absolutely perfect place in the world (imho) to do a hibernation day: <a href="http://www.sylviabeachhotel.com/" rel="nofollow">The Sylvia Beach Hotel</a> on the Oregon Coast. All you book-lovers, take note. All the rooms are named and designed after an author (but in a classy way, not typical theme-room fare). On the top floor there's a common reading room with a fireplace, a deck and lots of windows with an amazing view of the ocean just below and a lighthouse up the beach, and lots of overstuffed chairs and couches with reading lamps and throws at the ready. Plus cats! Plus lots of tea on hand, and mulled wine at night. Delicious meals are served family style at communal tables, so you meet all the (always interesting) other guests there. If you're ever in Oregon, I highly check it out. (and no, I'm not affiliated with this place at all, except as a happy repeat customer) I just remembered something else after I posted.

Plus time to catch up on some blog reading. Perfection!
