Hah, that's awesome lol, a "chilly" 10C, eh? Our British winter nights are warmer than your Australian summer nights :S But yeah, I love rain when camping, provided it's not all day and the tent isn't leaky
*chuckles* Brussels sprouts have a bitter chemical in them, same as in broccoli (but less in those), that makes a lot of people hate them, while other people are lacking the chemical receptor to taste it, so they think it tastes fine. Weirdly enough, though, I can taste the bitterness, and so can Casey. However, I always sorta liked brussels sprouts so long as you don't just boil them, if only 'cause they're traditional Christmas things that everyone loves to hate - they're cheap, and somehow I made them edible enough for Casey to like (!!) - he's a notorious veggie hater XD Trick was, he loves pepper and citrus, so it had tons of pepper in it, along with onion, garlic and sausage, along with orange zest and lime juice. I even slipped some matchstick carrots in there with them, and he liked that, too XD Even suggested, "Hey, we should make this regularly, so we make sure we get enough vegetables," which surprised me o_O The only veggies he likes generally are celery sticks with peanut butter, carrot sticks, and British mushy peas :b Oh, and spinach salad, so long as you put a lot of other non-veggie things in it XD

Well, sometimes the temp stays up in the 20s - and muggy humid, which makes it difficult to sleep. But overall, I like the weather here, even if it does tend to be long-sleeve weather for me most of the year.
That's interesting about the Brussel sprouts. I like broccoli, and many other veggies. I even like cilantro/coriander leaves, which my hubby says tastes like soap to him. (Apparently there are certain taste receptors for that as well.) Yay for finding a veggie dish that Casey is willing to have often!

Yeah, we had that happen last summer back in BC :S It was awful =/
lol, the way our Spanish roommate keeps the heaters going, it's STILL not long-sleeve weather. I can sleep in the buff with no covers on and still be comfortable :b

Hehe, thanks :3 It was painted a few years back, but it wasn't something that got posted at the time, so I figured now was a perfect chance!

Don't really get why they're common symbols of the holiday season?
