(pronounced: fro'-zee)
When one's cheeks are red or pinkish from being out in the freezing cold, they are frosy.
Important Note: When one's cheeks are red or pinkish from other causes besides the freezing cold (physical exertion, embarrassment, youth, etc.), they cannot be said to be 'frosy' but merely rosy.
