Happy Tuesday! Chelsea here.

I can't believe it's already February. To be honest, it sort of snuck up on me yesterday and I felt a little unprepared for it. I always tend to think of February as being the end of winter, but with the weather right now, I think we can all agree that's wishful thinking. While we're all snuggled up avoiding going outside into the frozen wasteland that is Columbus, let's treat ourselves to a nostalgic history lesson.
