Ramblings-n-Writings

Archive for September 22nd, 2008

I’m a winter person – I love the snow, cold weather, the holidays, layers of clothes, mittens and hats. However, this year I’m getting really excited for fall to come. Why? I think it’s because our new house has a gorgeous fireplace that smells wonderful and takes a little bit of the bite out of the cool mountain evening air.

Yep, we already used our fireplace one evening last week. Don’t worry – the temps dropped to the 40s that night so it was quite appropriate. Now I’m dreaming of drinking hot chocolate piled with marshmallows, gazing out the window at the fall colors, and listening to fire crackling. Oh, and most importantly, curled up in my blanket reading a good book!
