Light my fire

So much for the fifty degrees. It is cold and rainy and dark and I'm trying to motivate to go to the gym.

I'd rather be cuddled up in one of these lovely rooms sipping hot cocoa.

When we buy a house one of my top wish list items is a fireplace. I love them. Growing up, my grandparents lit a fire every single morning - even in the summer. (Luckily they lived in the mountains so it was usually cool in the morning.) I think this may be where my candle obsession comes into play. They'll have to do the trick until I get my fireplace.
