Snow days are the perfect excuse to slow down, relax, and enjoy the little things.
Whether you’re heading out to embrace the chill or cozied up at home, we’ve created a step-by-step guide to what to do on a snow day.
Expect cozy atmosphere, tasty treats, a little cannabis infusion, and the best snow day ever.
Step 1: Start with a snowy stroll or sledding adventure
There’s something magical about walking through freshly fallen snow, especially when you’re bundled up in your coziest winter gear.
Bloomfield has plenty of charming spots to explore when the snow falls. Brookdale Park and the Clark’s Pond Nature Reserve offer scenic winter views and perfect paths for a snowy stroll.
If you’re feeling adventurous, grab a sled and head to Pulaski Park, home to one of the best sledding hills in the area.
The brisk air and frost-filled landscapes will leave you feeling invigorated and ready for the next part of your snow day.
Pro tip: Enhance your outdoor adventure with cannabis-infused chocolate or a disposable vape to keep the chill vibes flowing.
Step 2: Cozy up with a warm drink
After a cold, crisp walk or an exciting sledding adventure, it’s time to warm up with a hot drink from one of Bloomfield’s favorite spots.
Head over to Casa De Flora Bar, 23 Skiddoo Cafe, or Brandon’s Coffee Shop for a comforting spiced chai or a classic latte to stay energized while you enjoy the snow-covered scenery.
Pro tip: If it’s a true blizzard out there, make hot chocolate yourself. Just modify your favorite hot chocolate recipe using a cannabis-infused chocolate bar of your choice.
Step 3: Indulge in comfort food
Bloomfield has plenty of local gems to satisfy your snow-day hunger, whether you’re craving something spicy or warm and hearty to keep you toasty.
After you’ve defrosted with your drink, treat yourself to a comforting meal from one of these spots. Eat in, or grab takeout and bring it home for the next step in our snow-day agenda.
- Dhamaal NJ: For a flavorful escape from the winter chill, Dhamaal’s warm, aromatic curries and tandoori dishes will transport you to another world. They’re perfect for those looking for bold flavors on a cold day.
- Tacos La Gringa: If you’re craving something fresh and satisfying, Tacos La Gringa serves up tacos, burritos, and more — guaranteed to warm you up from the inside out.
- Anthony’s Cheesecake & Restaurant: Whether you’re in the mood for a filling entrée or one of their famous, melt-in-your-mouth cheesecakes, Anthony’s has everything you need for a comforting meal.
Step 4: Head home for your favorite snow-day movie
There’s no better excuse to binge-watch your favorite movies or revisit holiday classics than a snow day.
Once you’ve sledded down and grubbed up, it’s time to curl up under blankets and get yourself lost in a cinematic world while the snow falls outside.
Whether you’re in the mood for a feel-good classic like The Princess Bride or a snowy escape with The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, the right movie lineup will make your snow day even more magical.
For an extra touch of relaxation, light up a Dogwalkers pre-roll or enjoy an Oria Gummy. The smooth, mellow effects will keep you in the perfect headspace to kick back and fully immerse yourself in the comforting vibes.
Step 5: Get creative with a cozy activity
After your movie marathon, tap into your creative side.
Create a snow day scrapbook by gathering photos, postcards, or mementos from your winter adventures and adding your personal touch with doodles and quotes.
Alternatively, dive into a craft, such as knitting a chunky scarf, starting a new puzzle, or experimenting with watercolor paints.
Pro tip: Pair your creative time with a Diamond Dust flower from Clade9 or a Banana Mochi Pre-Roll from Garden Greens to keep the energy light and fun.
Step 6: Pamper yourself with a pre-bed self-care routine
Snow days are the perfect excuse to indulge in a bit of self-care and unwind from the hustle.
After you’ve played both outside and in, there’s no better way to continue the relaxation than soaking in a warm, cannabis-infused bath or enjoying some downtime with an edible to help you unwind.
For a truly rejuvenating experience, try adding The Healing Rose CBD Bath Salts to your tub or massaging away any snowball-fight soreness with Drool’s Recovery Stick.
You’ll feel refreshed, balanced, and ready to tuck in for a cozy night’s rest.
Step 7: Treat yourself to a nightcap
As the day winds down, treat yourself to a soothing cannabis-infused bedtime tea.
Simply brew your favorite tea — chamomile or lavender work great for relaxation — and add a few drops of your preferred cannabis tincture. We love the Strawberry Orange Cream 1:1 from Avexia.
Stir gently and adjust the tincture to your desired strength. For extra flavor, add honey, milk, or a dash of cinnamon.
Step 8: Enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep
After all the fun and relaxation, it’s time to get some rest.
Slip into your pajamas, create a cozy sleep environment, and let yourself drift off to sleep knowing you’ve had the ultimate snow day experience.
If you need extra assistance getting those good ZZZ’s, try the 1906 Sleep Tablets or Camino Sleep Midnight Blueberry gummies.
