It's not the heat...

Adam and I enjoyed a sleigh ride in Freeport yesterday. We had a small date mixed with lots of Christmas shopping in which we purchased two items. It was cold. The night before we'd had our first snowfall of the season in Maine and everything was beautiful.

While we waited to get on the sleigh, we took a quick walk to the British store each purchased a Cadbury Crunchie. Yum! Then we got on the sleigh and took the little ride around town. From the website's description we'd exected to see more than the loading docks to the stores in Freeport, so Adam made lots of fun about this. But it was festive and it was really good to be together without the kids.

Poor Adam wasn't wearing a hat. His hat seems to have gone missing since we've moved. When we got back to the car we were pretty frozen and I leaned over and said to him (with the movie Cool Runnings in mind), "It's not the heat, it's the humidity that will kill you." He started laughing and then I asked if there was some idiotic saying that people who live in cold places like Maine say about the cold weather. We came up with nothing.

Does anyone know some really stupid remark that people make to others when it's cold out? Just curious.
