"Build Yourself A Nest" A few days ago I suggested that, at this time of year, you may be wondering why you didn't prioritize building that sunroom or greenhouse to hang out in during the cold winter months...a place you could go to in your home, to capture maximum light whilst still staying warm. ORRRR....for a LOT less thrash and money, you could 'build yourself a nest', and spend this time "gunched down" (a term we use in our family to denote ANY particularly warm and NESTLED IN situation) in a plush (preferably velvet-covered and down-filled) seat with pillows, soft blankets, and oodles of delicious reading material. I mean, 'nesting' isn't just for birds and humans who are expecting off-spring. It is ALSO for any time you particularly need to 'gunch down' and get through one season, whilst preparing for the next season!
