Yeah, yeah, I realize that 50 F and rainy is not "cold weather" for much of the world. Guys, I have only ever lived in Maharashtra and California, and mostly in hot parts of both! I am thin-blooded!
Currently in oven: chopped baking potatoes, red potatoes, sweet potatoes, and garlic. (What I had minus onions; I'm extremely sensitive to onion fumes and couldn't face them when I can't open a window.)
Awaiting oven: Chicken parts rubbed with brown sugar, cumin, salt, and pepper.
In refrigerator marinating: more chicken parts soaking in soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, and chopped garlic.
Contemplating: cake. Though that would require leaving house to buy milk.
Tell me of your favorite cold weather food, either ones you make or ones you just eat. (Recipes are great if you actually make them yourself.)

1. Pour boiling water over some dried mushrooms & let soak.
2. Put stew beef (or chuck in one-inch cubes) into a pot with carrots, celery, onion, fresh rosemary & bay leaf, add water, simmer for 1.5 hours or so.
3. Add the water from the mushrooms and some barley, and some water. Simmer until the barley is cooked. (I was out of barley so I used brown rice, worked fine.)
4. Add the chopped dried mushrooms and a bunch of chopped fresh mushrooms. Cook for another 20 minutes or so.
Salt & pepper to taste. Goes well with crusty bread, and freezes well.
