Make Warm In The House

On this New Year's Eve, the SJG would like to send out an APB: Make warm in the house. You heard me. No matter what state of denial you're living in as we close out 2014, it's cold. Even here in Sherman Oaks, it's brrrrrrsville. Fine, it's not 10 below. It's not snowing outside like maybe it is by you. Temperature aside, it's mandatory to follow my Russian grandmother's excellent, multi-purpose advice: Make warm in the house. Turn on the heat. Put on a sweater. Wear a blanket as an evening gown. Light a fire. Snuggle up. Get cozy. What it comes down to is this: Take care of the people you love and vice versa. Above all, remember the good things that went on in 2014 and delete the rest. As my sweet daddy would say, "Onward!" So please. Listen to the SJG. Make warm in the house. Unless you prefer to freeze your kreplach off. In which case, stop that. Come inside and chill. Have some hot cocoa and thaw out. See? Isn't that better?
