December 19-25, 2002 mixpicks WinterfestThere was a time, once, when we had real winters -- back when power lines wouldn't melt the snow, when icicles hung perilously from gutters, and when the local pond would freeze over, allowing for a little ice skating. Salvage your sanity and galvanize your gaiety this month by taking part in Winterfest, University City's fifth annual holiday tradition. Participants can take advantage of skating at the Class of 1923 Rink decorated for Christmas and Kwanzaa, seek refuge from winter's hostility with a soothing cup of hot cocoa and indulge in cookies, fruits and delicious carrot cake cupcakes compliments of the Carrot Cake Company in University City. Best of all, this pre-Christmas celebration is free and skate rentals are only $1. Reward yourself a break from the holiday horrors of shopping, cooking and cleaning by relaxing and unwinding with traditional style. Winterfest, Thu., Dec. 19, 5:30-8 p.m., 3130 Walnut St., www.UCityphila.org.
