My name is Will DeFrees and this is the Sunday Scaries Podcast, your cure for the Sunday Blues.

To kick off the new year, we're going to start off with some list of questions, so let's get right into them.

Our first question this month. What's your ideal winter Saturday from morning to evening?

Because we are saying ideal here, I'm going to take that literally rather than simply describing an enjoyable normal Sunday that I could really replicate at any time.

So we're going to start off with just this entire itinerary. I wake up just before sunrise with no hangover and I watch it from bed.

I make a cup of coffee that I sip while reading the newspaper. A fire is gently going while I eat my toast with jam and butter on it.

After seeing Manchester United win 7-0 against Liverpool, I begin to put on my long underwear and preparation for first tracks skiing on the mountain.

Rubbing my dog on the head to say goodbye for the next few hours, I walk out of my ski-end, ski-out mountain house where I take large, arcing turns at a comfortable speed down to the chairlift.

After enjoying some conversations on that chairlift with some friendly strangers, I return to my house to clean off my skis and get changed and waiting for me.

Is a freshly made steak sandwich created with leftover ingredients from last night's dinner.

Thenly sliced filet, a horseradish sauce and some grilled onions on it. It's got a side of kettel chips and a pickle spear.

And of course, a beer to wash it all down.

To wind down during the afternoon, we go and meet some friends for some apare ski beers at a local pub.

One Guinness for me please. And with them, we scheme up a dinner that ends up being a potluck situation at someone else's dinner.

You know, I'd offer mine up, but I don't really feel like cleaning it comes Sunday morning.

Late into the night as a fire roars, we dive into conversations, we play some games, and we listen to music before the fire finally dies down.

And as I lie in bed with my eyes about to shut, I remember to turn off my alarm for Sunday morning.

Yep, that's the good life.

Our next question. I'm going on a ski trip this year. What's my ideal apare ski fit?

If you're like most people in their 20s going on a ski trip, you're probably going more for the apare steamed than the actual slopes.

And yes, this is completely normal, but really there are two schools of thought here. Let's start with the first.

The first way to look at it is really by looking at the people who only care about the apare ski scene.
