Hmm... I haven't, but if I can get my hands on some vintage catalogs...

W30 L29

After another fresh layer of snow appeared overnight, I was thrilled to hear Lincoln share his plan to build raised beds in the backyard this spring. "We need something to look forward to," he said.

Lincoln emerged from the cellar with his toolbox. "Just checked - we've got everything we need to put those shelves up today."

"We're just in time," he said, pointing up through the windshield. We both leaned forward in our seats, gazing upward at the meteor shower blazing across the sky.

Oliver laced his ice skates up and took a bracing inhale. "Promise you won't laugh if I fall out there," he said.

Louis placed the freshly cut logs in a neat pile next to the fireplace, and dusted his hands off. "Can't wait to get this roaring," he said. "This is snuggle weather."

The party was joyful but starting to feel claustrophobic. I found a quiet corner, away from the noise and closed my eyes. Then I heard Julian's soft voice. "Are you hiding?" "No," I lied. "We can leave any time," he said. "I'm willing to sneak out the bathroom window if you need to." I smiled. So loyal. "I don't need to." "What about we start saying our goodbyes and I'll fake a headache if they take too long? I'd rather spend the rest of our night together."
