Fall Evenings


I am in love with our fireplace.

I didn't think I would be - I have been fiercely devoted to the idea of the wood stove or better yet, the masonry stove. Fireplaces are inefficient and drafty. . . and oh so beautiful. Hubby banked the fire last night, and this morning there were enough coals to start a new one.

Spending the evening (after the girls have gone to bed) curled up with a book and a glass of wine, maybe a blanket on the loveseat is nice, but add the fireplace with a crackling fire and it becomes heaven.

BTW - the glove garland is not meant to be decorative, but rather an indoor line to dry snow encrusted accessories when winter does come. But it is cute.
