Happy Winter Solstice

I don't plan to be around much today, but I imagine a lot of other people are busy too. Feel free to use this as an open thread, but if anyone has anything to share about Winter Solstice and how you celebrate it, that would be most welcome.

The unrelenting rain here doesn't convey a very Winter Solstice-y mood to me--or maybe it does. It certainly has me "longing for the light".
