As the temperature bottomed out this morning at -1 Farenheit, I was thinking about nominating the inventors of Cuddlduds and other really thin long-johns for an award, because I can wear them without looking like a polar bear who’s bulked up for the winter. Then I started thinking about the other best ways to stay warm, and I came up with a few good ideas to share. Here’s the first:
Kalamazoo House B&B’s “Warm Hearts, Fine Wine and Hot Glass” package starts with a two night-stay in one of our beautiful fireplace rooms (where you might also have a jetted tub if you choose wisely). That’s the “warm hearts” part. Once you’ve picked your room, adding on the package adds:
Enjoy wine tasting and get $20 of merchandise as well as mulling spices.
Wine tasting for two at downtown Kalamazoo’s own Tempo Vino Winery. You’ll taste their lovely wines and ports, and you’ll receive complimentary mulling spices and $20 in merchandise. That’s the “fine wine” part. And for the “hot glass” part….
It’s impossible to be cold when you’re working with molten glass at a 1600-degree glory hole!
A 3-hour glass blowing session at the West Michigan Glass Art Center. The talented instructors there will show you how it’s done and then help you each create a beautiful bowl or plate or glass to take home. You’ll be amazed at how much fun you’ll have creating a work of art, and believe me….you won’t be chilly any more!
Stay tuned for Part 2 of keeping warm in Kalamazoo….
Cheers,
Laurel
