Baby it's Cold Outside!

I am not kidding. The temperature in E-town has dropped to -20 degrees Celsius (-4 degrees Fahrenheit) and it is brisk! We have had so much snow that EBN and I were nearly unable to make it up our back alley into our parking garage. The cold weather makes me want to hibernate at home. In an ideal world I could cocoon on my couch with this fleece blanket my mom made, a movie and a glass of wine. Do you have any favourite things that are indispensible when the weather gets chilly? Here is a list of handmade gems that I’d like to have in my cocoon.

Flower Power Hottie by lalaloop
Warm up fast by taking this cozy hot water bottle and crawling under the covers. I used to bring a hot water bottle to bed with me in the winter when I was kid. How lovely to have such a beautiful cover. I used to wrap mine in an old towel.

Mink Fleece Socks by bewakeful
EBN has ice cube feet. He likes to crawl into bed and stick them all over me. I think I would be much happier if he invested in stocks like these!
