Not for me  :D

Shows what scripture does to you. If you had a more fluid oral tradition the celebrations would just have been moved to your winter.

And it would have made sense. The whole christian calendar is based on the seasons.

You are right, but ey, for me Easter is the time of the chocolate, because it's coldish. And we had delicious ice creams for Christmas  :)

   Hmmm, wonder if the Summer and Winter Courts take into account who lives north or south of the Equator?    Maybe the stone table turns? :o

exartiem:
Maybe the "Capitals" of winter and summer move around the Earth, always on opposite sides of the planet.  When winter is in the northern hemisphere, summer is in the southern.  When summer resides in the northern, Mab has to travel farther to reach Harry, spending more energy to keep the portals open.  When she comes to Chicago in the summer she is farther from her power.
