SUGAR
AND SPICE
by Bill Smiley
A WINTER WEEK -END
Winter is a delight to the
young, a bit of a horror for the
old, and a blasted nuisance for
the rest of us.
Yet even for me, one of the
most violent winter -haters in
the last category, there are mo-
ments when it has a mysterious
charm that cannot be duplicated
at any other season.
Today is one of them. Nope,
it's not one of those sparkling,
crunchy, sky-blue winter days
which no one but a complete
misanthrope could fail to enjoy.
It's just the opposite.
It's one of those brooding
winter days when the shadow of
the great monster of the north
hangs low over the shrinking
earth, and his icy paw feels
about the walls of the house,
seeking a weak spot where he
may enter and strangle. __ ...
His cold, blue breath raises
snow -ghosts that sift silently
among the naked, shivering
trees. His very presence makes
the blue-green spruce huddle
closely, like frightened cattle in

a storm. The water of the bay
reflects fearfully the slate -gray
of his sightless eyes.
Don't be frightened, children.
The old spook won't get us. As
long, that is, as the snow doesn't
block the roads, and we don't
run out of fuel, and there isn't
a power breakdown.
It's a day for sitting by the
fire with a hot noggin, dream-
ing, shivering deliciously once
in a while, as the monster out-
side gives a snort of frustration
that rattles the windows. And
that's exactly what I'm doing.
We've been spending the
week -end with the grandparents
in the country. It has followed
its inevitable pattern. The night
we arrived, it blew and it snew.
In the morning it was gusting to
40 miles an hour, piling up the
drifts, filling the driveway.
Late in the day, the snow
stopped, the wind dropped, and
so did the temperature, to a
nice round figure—zero. Typi-
cal visiting winter weekend.
But we care nowt. Flames
dance in the fireplace, faires on
the television. Tomorrow is time
enough to dig out the car ,pray
that it will start, and hope the
snowplow will get through the
side -road.
While the monster prowls
outside, all is serene within.
Grandad reminisces about win-
ters 30 years ago, when he drove
a rural mail route, with team
and sleigh. Bundled to the ears.
Buffalo robes. Snow piled to the
top of snake fences. Stopping

for lunch in the still shelter of
deep spruce woods. Lonely as
the Ancient Mariner, on a white
white sea. And home, darkness
deepening, to cosy lamplight,
snug farm kitchen, hot food,and
anxious wife.
While he talks quietly, Gran-
ny produces endless pots of tea,
cake, sandwiches, chocolates.
The kids sprawl on the floor,
strumming guitars or dreaming.
The Old Battleaxe dozes, silent
for once.
And even yours truly, lulled
by the fire and stunned by a
huge dinner, admits that there
are times when winter can be
wonderful.
