As well you should. It's one of those things that define compatibility even when you have differences over politics, religion etc.

Not long after my wife and I met, we went to a church "Las Vegas" night. One of the things you could gamble on was a wheel of states. Every 20 minutes or so, women would come around selling tickets with state names on them. During the evening, I had the choice of some Northeast states. I chose Vermont and said to (my then girlfriend) "It must be beautiful this time of year". With no hesitation at all she replied, "All that snow."

I knew at that moment that she was a keeper.
