Oh the weather outside is frightful,

but the fire is so delightful.


Today is just the kind of day to enjoy inside by the fire with a book. The wind is blowing the last three days worth of snow around creating a chill that you would feel deep down in your bones. I am hesitant to look and see what the thermometer reads.

I have since devoured the homemade toffee pictured above. I could easily eat my weight in this stuff. Thankfully, we only make it at this time of year ;)
