Hello everyone,
On this first day on winter and
our winter solstice I have a
cosy little winter retreat
for you.
It is nice to know that our days here
are now starting to get longer.
You can curl up with a warm furry throw
and a hot cup of cocoa in my
new copper mug from Homesense.
We have a good dusting of snow
here and our pond has a thin
coat of ice....not enough for
ice skating yet though.
Cocoa and whipped cream
with a sprinkle of cinnamon
is a favorite winter treat.
A broader view
Christmas touches add some
charm to our little nook.
Happy Winter Solstice!
I wanted to include a snowy winter
shot of our little Boathouse from a
previous winter when we had a lovely
coat of snow. We are expecting some
snow tomorrow but alas, it will be
followed by rain.
I am looking forward to going for
a drive this evening to see the Christmas
lights.....it seems every year there are
more and more to see.
I will be back tomorrow with some indoor
shots of our home but now I better get
some baking done!
Thanks for visiting,
Carolyn
Dearest Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteA very cozy setting for the shortest day of the year!
Happy winter solstice to you and yours.
Hugs,
Mariette
A lovely post
ReplyDeleteSo welcoming, the idea of a reading nook is right up on my to-do list! Such a sweet little place, may I ask, How do you heat it in Winter? I am cold by nature and often wonder about such things! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOh definitely very cozy! I just love that little boathouse.. every time I see it, I want to live there! I guess I need to make a cozy corner like that in my house. Those copper mugs are so pretty, and hot cocoa with cinnamon would just be perfect, with snow falling outside. We have a frosting of snow here in central Oregon, just enough for me! xoxo Marilyn
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy your little boat house and all of the tea parties and other activities you show from there. I just wish it could be moved 'down south'.
ReplyDeleteFor instance USA Texas. Here is wishing you a Happy New Year 2022
Dear Caroly,
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful and cozy corner! There I would like to linger a moment and enjoy the beautiful view. Happy holidays and warm greetings from Berlin
