Do You Want To Build A Snowman?

The snow has both its ups and its downs, of course the ups being the kids can have hours of outdoor fun making their very own Olaf. And the downs, well the fact that it literally does take hours… in the freezing cold. Can you think of anything worse than a standing in the cold with numb fingers and toes? We can… and that's standing in the cold and being hungry! Well… that is why we are here to help, whilst the little ones are off making snow angles and maybe your partners are too, why not indulge yourself with a warm pot of Tomato and Basil soup whilst you supervise. It'll keep the hunger at bay as well as warming your hands. No need to thanks us, that what we are here for.

Of course, we all say "New year, new me"  and do something completely ridiculous like decide we would like to climb the tallest mountain or give up shopping (of course, if you are a women or in fact know any women, you know this is the most ridiculous suggestion that has possibly ever been made, it will never happen).
We'd love to know what your new years resolutions were and if you have stuck to them or, well, given in.
