Dear reader: what's your favourite way to hygge?

Ted Lasso & tea under a comfy blanket when the world spins to crazy. Maybe crochet & create a reminder later that cozy is necessary. When I snuggle that blanket I create from the crochet...

This time of the year I go to the Brown Bear Webcam @ Brooks Falls in Katmai National Park - the sound of rushing water is soothing while watching the bears “fish”. Mamas bring their cubs and yearlings for “fishing” lessons.

Hi Katie

So easy to think Cosy in autumn and winter but now in the heatwaves seeking the hot summer equivalents

So far come up with

Watermelon slices (colour texture and taste) cool from the fridge

Cool water as I remembered to fill a bottle and pop it into the fridge

Cool coffee make two cups and pop one in the fridge for later

Greenery in a vase

Winter - my favorite tactile blanket, a favorite book or TV series, hot coffee, snuggling with my dog, home alone preferably with snow falling outside.

Spring - alone in my office, working on art projects (or not) , cool water, spring flowers in a pretty ceramic vase, windows open.

Summer - iced tea or coffee, sitting on my front porch where it's cool and I can see out but no one can see in, a selection of cool fruits, and adult coloring.

Fall - crackling fire on the patio, spiced rum, 1 or 2 good friends, my fave jacket or sweater.
