“Its lovely to be going home and to know its home” Anne of Green Gables

 

A pet picture...I know right, the LAST thing you'd expect from me. But she just looked so cozy on top of the couch that I couldn't resist. This is was home is like. Cozy, peaceful, safe, just generally comfortable. Home is on the couch with a cat to keep your feet warm...that is when she's not sleeping on top of the couch.

The ultimate in cozy. My yet again amazing grandmother comes into this blog. She made this Irish Knit afghan for me and my husband as a wedding shower gift. It moves from bed to couch and back to bed. Home is under a blanket made with love.

The home fires burning....this is the closest we have to a fireplace for now, which I love as a symbol for home. Home is a gathering place, a safe place and a nurturing place...fireplaces seem to provide the perfect atmosphere for home. Home is light and warmth...and cinnamon scented soy candles.
