The holidays are over, but you don't have to give in to the winter blues! Here are a few ways to enjoy Summer in January:

• Fire up the grill. Whatever the temperature outside, you can still grill burgers and hot dogs and bring them indoors for a picnic.
• Have a film festival. Rent one or two of those kid-friendly blockbusters you missed last summer, pop some popcorn and mix up some fun, fruity umbrella drinks.
• Enjoy some ice cream. Never underestimate the mood-lifting effects of ice cream in the winter. Make sundaes at home or venture to your favorite frozen yogurt shop!

Now I know all you moms out there are far more creative than I am, so let’s hear your family’s favorite wintertime blues buster. Here’s to Summer in January!
