AN AFTERNOON OF HYGGE: The Danish Art of Cozy

AN AFTERNOON OF HYGGE

A simple practice of cozy. There's nothing like the comfort that can be found in the company of good friends and a warm bowl of hot soup.  

A Definition: Hygge: (noun) A Danish word for a quality of coziness (=feeling warm, comfortable, and safe) that comes from doing simple things such as lighting candles, baking, or spending time at home with your family: You can read more about Hygge here, through this fun article courtesy of The New Yorker.

Come to find out, I've been practicing this lifestyle since I was a child, I just never knew the word for it before now.
