my bed is like a little oven

Let me tell you about my favorite Christmas present: an electric blanket. It is so fantastically warm. I haven't been cold a single night since I've had it, despite temperatures in the low 30s. My favorite feature of the blanket is that it has a 'preheat' setting.

Oh electric blanket, you are just as wonderful as freshly baked chocolate cookies (which also necessitate preheating).

That's a beautiful poem. :)
I just want to say A.) it's effing cold in NorCal, just as cold as in was in Oxford, so I'm really glad you have an electric blanket; and, B.) I just want to thank you for keeping up with my blog and my posts, I really appreciate your comments and reflections on my own reflections--I always love to hear your wise perspective on things. Anyway, just wanted to say that! Have a great (and warm) day!

Did you know they make heated mattress pads too? I've actually acclimated a bit and only use a very thick down comforter now.

I'm trying to revive my blog and read others blogs too. It's a new year's resolution of sorts.

I can't wait to see you!
