  6. I learnt that the novelty of snow does eventually wear off, and that there is no such thing as too much chocolate (not even chocolate chip cookies with hot chocolate pushes the limit).

    Will be interested to follow the book club, but my own book reading is sporadic at times :-)

  8. Completely with you on 5, must still learn 2 for myself.

    What I learnt:
    a) It's sometimes good to slow down.
    b) Cold calamari tastes pretty good the next day, cold mussels not so much.
    c) I'm sure there was something else, but I can't remember now. Didn't learn that very well, now did I?

  9. 2, 9, and 10 hit the spot, especially 9! Hence, I make it a point to stash 10-15% of my wage bimonthly in a safe place I do not see often so as to avoid being in this kind of rut again.
