The Great Snow of February 2009!
THE GREAT FROST - John Gay (1716)
from Trivia: Or, the Art of Walking the Streets of London
O roving Muse, recall that wonderous year,
When winter reigned in bleak Britannia’s air;
When hoary Thames, with frosted osiers crowned,
Was three long moons in icy fetters bound.
The waterman, forlorn along the shore,
Pensive reclines upon his useless oar,
Sees harnessed steeds desert the stony town,
And wander roads unstable, not their own;
Wheels o’er...

Here’s how to stay warm-n-cozy:
Sip some creamy egg nog at a local pub – http://www.viewlondon.co.uk/christmas. I do realize people have a love/hate relationship with the nog, however, so a belly-warming alternative is mulled wine or some classic Christmas ales. I drank my first hot toddy ever in London, so if you’re keen on staying in and curling up to It’s a Wonderful Life, here’s a recipe for stirring your own mystical holiday concoction that can also be used...

NOW WINTER NIGHTS ENLARGE – Thomas Campion (1567-1620)
Now winter nights enlarge
The number of their hours
And clouds their storms discharge
Upon the airy towers.
Let now the chimneys blaze,
And cups o’erflow with wine:
Let well-tun’d words amaze
With harmony divine.
Now yellow waxen lights
Shall wait on honey Love,
While youthful Revels, Masks and Courtly sights
Sleep’s leaden spells remove.
This time doth well dispense
With lovers’ long discourse;
Much speech...

‘Tis the season to be jolly! Nonetheless, while the temperature is dropping, this rainy weather we’re having may definitely be dampening your spirit, which can drastically hinder the achievement of said ‘jolliness’. Now that we’ve entered December, if you’re aching to feel Christmasy but having difficulty doing so (especially if you’ve relocated to London from a locale that has snow in the winter, not rain), my strong recommendation to you is to hop...

Descend into the Dark Depths of'..BLACK FRIDAY!!!
From London Relocation Blog, 2 year ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
(photo from http://iheartfood4thought.wordpress.com/)
Americans, you know what I’m talking about: Black Friday, the dreaded yet most anticipated day after Thanksgiving when the stores do their most outrageous price-slashing, thereby drawing the sleep-deprived and–I’m convinced–mildly insane masses to line up at their doors at 3am in order to be the first to charge forth into the discount extravaganza. They race, they pillage, they conquer at the cashier when they pick...

Giving Thanks, American Style
From London Relocation Blog, 2 year ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
Sitting at my desk, I am now realizing what a huge bummer it is not to get Thanksgiving off of work outside of the United States. This is my first Thanksgiving without a visit home, so I am inwardly *sighing* a great deal as I think of all that I’m missing out on…in about 3 hours, my mom will probably be loading up the oven with the big bird and dashing about the house with last-minute preparations before my siblings and their spouses and children arrive. The lunch-time gorging...

Speaking the Queen's English (Home & Garden)

You'll feel more at home when you know what everything's called.
I left off on my informal little British-to-American English glossary with a sub-series of posts devoted to food. As you store your purchased goods in your kitchen cupboard (versus cabinet), it is time to likewise bring the terminology into your home. (Some of these terms might just emerge conversationally rather than being absolute substitutions. Nonetheless, it helps to be familiar with the synonyms so you can...
