Home, Sweet (Fall) Home: Where The Cozy Things Are

“Home is not a place... it’s a feeling.” — Cecelia Ahern

🍁There’s something special about cozy weekends at home in the fall 🍂

The air turns crisp, the light softens, and suddenly it feels right to slow down — to stay in, light a candle🕯️, make a warm drink☕, and let the world quiet down for a bit.

“Peace — that was the other name for home.” — Kathleen Norris

Whether you’re curling up with a book📖, cooking 🍲 something comforting, or just taking time to rest, I hope your weekend feels peaceful and cozy🛋️.

This weekend, here’s to small joys, warm blankets, and the simple joy of doing absolutely nothing in your home.

“At home, I find the rhythm of the seasons — the scent of cinnamon, the glow of lamplight, the quiet that feels like a hug.” — Unknown

Happy weekend, everyone 🤎

Nina Hollander, Broker I plan on a CUTY Fall day tomorrow - Cleaning Up The Yard. I'd much rather have a cozy day, but it has to be done! Have a great weekend!

Nina Hollander, Broker - these are happy thoughts for a cooler night in Texas. I will remember your post when that day comes. For now, I'm loving the sentiments you shared on ActiveRain in reference to Jane Austin. She on my Book Club's list for upcoming readings and discussions. You did a great job here!

Well it's in the 80's so it's not exactly fallish weather but it sure feels like it in our home Nina. Cozy for sure when we turn the candles on at night and enjoy relaxing after Gary's back from Norman's walk. We only have one event this weekend so it's going to be nice to just chill out.

Our special fall days are enjoyed looking at all the special colors of the leaves as we take them out from under the shrubs and push them off the lawn.

They look far better when seen looking up at the trees.

I enjoy having cozy weekends at home, especially if it is too hot or too cold outside, haha. I still have to get out and soak up some vitamin D, though!

It doesn't happen often Nina Hollander, Broker so I consider when I can't wear shorts outside as too cold, haha.

I have a wonderful quilt/blanket on my couch which my neighbor made for me. But it must have some sort of sleep dust in it because the moment I get on the couch and pull that blanket over me, I nod out. It's impossible to stay warm and awake!
