Dearest Readers,
I write this missive ensconced in my favorite flannel robe which is layered snugly over long-johns... wool stockings upon my feet. A blazing fire in the woodstove and a hot cup of tea are keeping me company. 'Tis the "Tucked-In Season"....my favorite time of year to be certain.
I have slowly been transforming our little home into a cozy chipmunk's nest complete with heavy velvet curtains adorning windows and piles of warm throws upon settees and chairs. As Eventide draws near, the curtains are drawn against the chill of the night and we are, once again, cocooned inside our snug cottage.
Evenings spent in my easiest of easy chairs, Dearest nearby, hand-work of one kind or another to keep my hands busy...such comfort and delight. The night descends upon us so much earlier now, gently pushing us indoors, closer together, love gathered under one roof...so much happiness.
The"Tucked-In Season" has come again....joy of joys!
Yours so kindredly,
Shan

A friend of mine can't understand my recent need to clean and organize everything in the autumn.
I told her it's because I stay inside more in winter (especially since we moved to the country) and I love it to look decluttered as well as beautiful in this season. :)
Good to see you posting more again!
I too love to snuggle in this time of year.
Love to heat the kitchen with the oven while baking goodies to serve with the hot soups and hot tea or coffee.
Stay cozy and warm.
I enjoy your blog so much.
