Most mornings I experience this scene for a few short moments before life throws me over it's shoulder and hauls me away to work in a distant town beside a dark river.

Our frangipani tree has begun to grow new flowers, the first signs that the heart of winter may be behind us. We have somehow managed to survive this cool season without using a fire or any other heating device. We warm the house by opening the shutters to take advantage of the sunshine afforded by Mother Nature during the shorter daylight hours. Extra blankets at night, thick socks, hot tea and home cooking warms our bodies in our winter home.
What environmentally friendly methods do you utilise to keep warm during the winter time?

Your Winter Home looks so beautiful. I love those shells. x
ReplyDeleteThank you Elizabeth. I collect seashells every time I visit the beach... I had accumulated so many that I have begun to return a few every now and again. It's a habit I've had since I was a small girl :)

I live in my big snuggly dressing gown (over my regular clothes) when I'm at home during the day. I stick Dear Boy in a million layers and a hoodie and we're all good without the heater until around 4:30pm.
ReplyDeleteOh that dressing gown sounds toasty :) It's a great idea to maintain warmth for as long as possible before using the heater, layers definitely do the trick around here too :)

Lovely.
ReplyDeleteThank you Katie. I will post more revealing images from my home in the coming weeks.
