Keeping Warm When It's Cold Outside

It's been cold recently. Has anyone else noticed that or is it just me?
I like the occasional cold spell now and then. But, I don't like feeling cold for long periods of time. So I've been looking into ways to keep warm.
Exercise. Um... Pass?

Cooking. The problem with cooking warm, delicious comfort food (especially when you have the above exercise regimen) is it tends to expand the waist... thighs... etc. And while I'm a fan of a more Ruben-esque female form, one must be careful.

So, once you've stared at your exercise tapes and enjoyed some warm yumminess, what should you do?

Why READ a book of course. A really good, make-your-toes-tingle, thrill up the back of your spine, lose yourself in the world on the pages, forget to eat, sleep, and put off using the facilities until you finish the next page book.


So, who are you reading? And how warm are they keeping you? I'm looking for a new read so I'd love some suggestions.
