Winter in Lebanon is all about getting creative. Without 24/7 electricity, staying warm despite the power cuts is a challenge that ultimately develops into a skill, a very rare one at that. Here are 8 ways to stay warm without having to think twice about electricity this winter in Lebanon:

1. Find someone hot-blooded to cuddle with

2. Warm up with some wine & cheese

3. Stop ordering in, heat up the kitchen with some home cooking

4. Dance, better yet throw a dabke party

5. Snuggle up with your argileh

6. Build a fort with all the old blankets your grandma gave you

7. Beg your mom to make you some sa7lab

8. Steal your jiddo's camel wool 3abaya
