It is snowing (about 6" on the ground), the wind is blowing, but we will weather the storm. Christmas shopping and decorating is finished; so we are relaxing, listening to Christmas music, watching tv, reading and baking cookies and bread... and trying to keep warm! 

Right now I am reading For All the Tea in China (How England Stole the World's Favorite Drink and Changed History) by Sarah Rose and The Big Rich (about the beginnings of the Texas oil industry) by  Bryan Burrough.  Anybody have some suggestions for future reading?
