Winter seems to have adopted a "better late than never" mentality, and so here we are in February with our first real coating of authentic urban slush. Yes it's ugly out there, but you can't live solely on Seamless and old episodes of Friends forever, so seize the day, get out of the house and enjoy all the city has to offer, including film festivals, hot dog competitions, and the upcoming Chinese New Year. Then get psyched for Beer Week, book signings, butcher training, and so much more. We promise all of your puddle-jumping will be worth it.
