Summer, it’s not you, it’s me. We’ve had lots of fun, and made some great memories. Yet I’ve decided that Autumn understands me better with its;
- crisp mornings
- scented candles
- comfort foods
- snuggling up on the sofa in front of the fire
- oversized sweaters
- pots of tea and more – the list is endless! ♡
I never thought I’d be someone who loves and adores the colder seasons; but as the air gets cooler and the days get shorter, I am reminded of your imminent return. The leaves are beginning to morph into beautiful shades of red, orange, and gold eagerly anticipating your arrival. A big smile fills my face when the first leaf of the season falls gracefully to the ground. That is all it takes for my heart to melt. One simple leaf can flood my memory of all the reasons that I love you ♡
As Autumn sets in with its cold, grey mornings and the sun disappears a little bit earlier each day, beat the Autumn blues this season and take out time daily for ‘hygge’. Being a Scandinavian (Norwegian to be exact), Hygge is something that I am very familiar with and have been practising for years. . .
“Tis the season to get cosy.”
Hygge is the art of creating a warm and inviting space for friends and family to linger together, sharing warm food, drink and conversations. Yet, it’s also the enjoyment one finds in curling up to a good book on the couch with a hot cup of tea. Join me on this ‘7 Days to Hygge’ Challenge and welcome the new season ♡
