We have that in Imperial Beach. There are no vacancies.
Cold evenings with warm cat cuddles.
Don't like how unpleasant these are for much of the year
It's not even summer yet and I'm already contemplating if I can afford to move to New Zealand for half the year.
Ripe fruits!
Cadbury cream eggs
Goodbye teeth, hello diabetes.
I'm pretty sure that those are available year round. I tend to see them throughout the year. If your local retailer doesn't carry them year-round, you can just order 'em online.
Girl scout cookies
My closest grocery store has knockoffs that are available year-round.
It looks like various companies have also done so.

I imagine that if they aren't available in your local grocery store, that you might be able to order them.
Though, of course, you're not making a donation to the Girl Scouts that way, but you can just do that directly, if you'd like.
butternut squash
If you have room to stock up they’ll keep for months, I still have a squash or two from our last summer harvest.
Wish I did. Thanks for the tip though 😁
Snow
Peppermint hot chocolate.
... Swiss Miss with a shot of peppermint schnapps?
(Also try it with Sailor Jerry's spiced rum instead of the peppermint schnapps, though that's totally different)
(I should note that I make SM with water, not milk, so if you make it with milk and it sucks, don't blame me. Though, on the subject of white liquids, eggnog with peppermint schnapps is also good)
(Maybe I should try eggnog with Sailor Jerry's to round out the set. What? You say that's a thing people do already?)
Cinnamon butter! It just tastes better when a megacorp makes it.
I must ask... what is cinnamon butter?
Butter with sugar and cinnamon in it.
Ahh nice, so simple
Shamrock shake?
Based on this, looks like you can start with a vanilla shake, add mint extract, and add green food coloring.
This is basically it, yes, but sometimes I'm drunk-ordering 40 nuggets and a milkshake and adding the mint myself is enough effort to make me reconsider my reckless disregard for my wellbeing.
Blue Jay's staring through my window in the morning
And their death screech to say good morning :). I like BJs too but fine with the robins winning the territory this year.
Turkeys
Those are. Just not in the abundance as the fall. And maybe not thawed everywhere.
Cold weather. I love it! ❄️
Pastel de Natas (Portuguese Custard Tarts) at Trader Joe's in the U.S.
They only have them in the spring and they run out fast.
Pineapple Fanta.
christmas lights
Figs. Fresh figs are only occasionally available here and I never remember when so miss them half the years. I also wish my citrus trees had fruit all year, that would be awesome.
And the afternoon thunderstorms. It's so hot already and they haven't started yet, and last year failed entirely because of el Nino. I wouldn't mind them being all year.
