I gotta whitewash. Buen día, leviosa! Good morning, everybody. It is so hard to get out of bed in winter, but I have to stick to some kind of a routine. So today I'm going to show you my winter routine. The very first thing I do every single morning in winter is put on my slippers because my feet are always freezing cold in winter. First things first, I need a cup of hot coffee. We have a Keurig at my mom's house, so I just take one pod of coffee, put it in the machine. Oh my gosh, are you seeing this? That's crazy. We've accumulated a lot of snow overnight. Let's go take a closer look. I feel like a kid again. I'm very very excited to see the snow. Wow! It's gorgeous. Usually when we get snow like this, I check the news right away to see how the road conditions are, and when I was younger, I would always check to see if there were any school closings. Come and join the fun! Hide, back in bed under the covers. I guess my mom is telling me to get my butt out there and shovel. Before I go outside, I have to bundle up. In winter, I usually dress in layers, so I'll have 2 pairs of pants on, 3 shirts. I put on my hat. I feel like a marshmallow. I haven't seen snow like this. Since I was a really little kid. When you're a kid, snow is a lot of fun. When you're an adult, it's a lot of work. You're doing great. Wow, look at those muscles. Wait a second. I just realized what that sound is. I think we've got a snowblower in front. Why am I shoveling? I'm going to get the snowblower. Get some ammunition. No, Volp. No, you're not. No, you're not. Are you trying to kill me? Get him off. I got a whitewash. That's what we call that, a whitewash. What's so funny, huh? I'm soaking wet now. I think I have to throw my clothes in the dryer. It's so cold even Willy had to put his sweater on. You warm, little guy? Soups in the Crock-Pot are the perfect winter meal. If you don't know what a Crock-Pot is, it's a kitchen appliance that cooks soups in stews very slowly. So you can make it in the morning, let it cook all day, and at night you'll have a meal ready to eat. Today my mom and I are making white chicken chili. I haven't eaten this for a very long time. Chili is a very common winter food in Michigan, but this is kind of a different version of it. We have all of the ingredients here and we will just throw it in the Crock-Pot and let it cook all day. Raw meat gives me the ick. We're sprinkling spices on top of the chicken. 1 teaspoon of cumin, 3/4 teaspoons of oregano, 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder. Don't cry, Mom. Why are you crying? You just love me so much you're overwhelmed with emotion? You can tell me, it's okay. I'm crying now too. I just put in 1 teaspoon of minced garlic. Next, we're adding in green chilies, a can of corn. My mom chopped up some fresh cilantro, which is the best. I know some people hate cilantro, but I'm a big fan of it. I'm going to use a measuring cup to measure out 24 ounces of chicken broth. Mom measures with her heart. I measure according to the recipe. Alrighty, and then I think that's it. And now I am covering it and we will cook it on high for 3 to 4 hours. That will be perfect because when we come back in after sledding, it'll be all ready to eat. Mmm, it already smells good. I am heading back outside because there is still a little bit of work to be done. Oh my gosh, I cannot believe it's still snowing. Earlier it was a whiteout, but now we're just getting some light flurries. But it has been snowing nonstop since I woke up. It doesn't even look like we shoveled this morning. Usually after we shovel, we salt our driveway to make it less slippery, but I think we need to shovel again before we salt it. Look at that icicle. Come on, come on, cameraman. Look at these icicles. These things are dangerous. Actually, when I was young, I used to suck on them like a popsicle. Now I know that it's very dirty. And that's disgusting. Wingardium Leviosa. Ah, have mercy. Have mercy. We're about to go on a little adventure, but first I need to start the car. When I was young, I remember having to use an ice scraper to get all the ice off the car, but now they make remote starters. It's the best technology in the world. Luckily, the car is all nice and warm, but we still keep an ice scraper in the back just in case of an emergency. This is how you know you're from Michigan. On a day like today, most people would not leave the house because the road conditions are not the greatest, but we're going on a little bit of an adventure. Luckily, my mom is very experienced when it comes to winter driving because she was born and raised in Michigan. So it's not her first time driving in bad weather like this. But still, you have to be very careful, drive slow, and look out for black ice. I don't know if you can see what's behind me here, but we're actually going sledding. This This is definitely not part of my normal winter routine, but I do try to stay active in the winter and get some fresh air. Wow! Well, we just arrived to the middle of nowhere. Actually, none of us know where to go. This is a real true adventure. We're just going to walk around and hopefully find this hill. Hi! Sorry, um, is there a snow hill nearby here? Back here. So just walk in front here. Okay, thank you so much. I just asked inside a school, but we're in the right place. What the— it's getting deeper. That looks very steep. This is a little Little sketchy. I'm not going down. What? I'm not going down. You've got to go once. We've got a classic sled here, which is similar to a toboggan, and my favorite, a saucer. I like these ones because they go really fast and they spin a lot as you go down the hill. Wow, that was a good-sized hill. We had to walk through some huge snowdrifts to get there though. I'm shivering and I feel like my fingers and my toes are numb. So we're going to head home and get nice and warm so we don't catch a cold. I look like Jack Frost and I've got snow everywhere. We made it home from sledding. But we have a few more winter activities to do. I'm going to make a snow angel and build a snowman. Do you wanna build a snowman? Ooh, the snow is not great packing snow, so this might be a little bit of a struggle. This is the technique. You make a small snowball and then just roll it to make it bigger and bigger. It's kind of nice when you build a snowman with someone, not alone. I even got a real carrot for the nose. I should be wearing snow pants for this, but I'm going to make a snow angel. Whoa, the snow's heavy. I got to do more leg day. Whoa. Is actually a beautiful snow angel. You can see the wings. Now I'm freezing cold. And I feel like I might have frostbite. Let's go in. Hey, Mom, look at my snowman. Where? Wow. Oh, I see ya. Oh, it's cute. It's really little, but it's cute. The soup's ready inside. Okay, just a minute. I gotta stomp the snow off my feet. I don't want to track in snow. I'm checking the thermostat and cranking up the heat. When the temperatures are extremely cold, like far below zero, sometimes we have to drip our taps, which means we leave a small stream of water running so that the pipes don't freeze. Soup looks to die for. It's been cooking for about 5 hours, and I think it's finally done. I love eating warm, hearty food in the winter. This was a new recipe that my mom and I tried. Mom gets the first taste. Mm. Do you think you like white chicken chili more or traditional chili? I wouldn't say I like one better than the other because they are so different. It's really good though. Turned out great. You did a good job. You helped me. I helped. Success. Crush a few tortilla chips. On top. This is really good. I like that it's a little bit creamy. It's not as spicy as I thought it would be, but it's got some good flavor to it. I usually end cold winter days the same way that I start them, with a nice warm and cozy beverage. Normally I make herbal tea at night. But after dinner, I was craving something a little bit sweet, so I'm making my mom and I some gourmet hot chocolate. We've got a raspberry-flavored one and a salted caramel-flavored one. I'm pouring the hot cocoa mix into the mugs. I need a little taste test. To see if I need to add more water or not. Mmm, I like the raspberry, that's pretty good. Let's try this. I like the salted caramel more. I'm going to spike our hot chocolate tonight with some white chocolate Irish cream liqueur, so we're making adult hot cocoa tonight. You can't have hot chocolate without some marshmallows. Usually I like to use mini marshmallows, but we only have big marshmallows on hand. Cheers! Cheers to a good winter routine. Mom loved sledding today, you can tell. Yours is good. Mine's better. It's better? That's how much I love you. I made the best one in the house for you. That's how much I love you. I participated in winter routine all day long today. We can do it tomorrow if you want. Nope. I can't believe it's only 7 PM. It feels like midnight. It gets dark so early in the wintertime. I'm all snuggled up with my cocoa and a new book. I just recently started this. It's called The Great Believers, and it had a great rating on the Goodreads app. If you want to take your English to the next level, check out our membership options. That's it for my winter routine.
