- snow covered mountains and landscapes - those mild sunny days now and then - fireplace keeping us warm from dawn till midnight - a massive, plush bed with quilts and duvets to keep out the coldness - rosy cheeks - warm steamy tea or hot cocoa - faux fur throws all over the house for extra warmth when needed - scarves, coats, beanies and gloves the way only Scandinavians know how to wear fashionably - winter lights - frost on the bedroom window - seeing your frozen breath outside - a true winter wonderland
