Winter Goal

silenceofthethumbs via oh hello friend

With cooler weather starting to roll in, it's about time to get tucked into some great movies. I'm a complete sucker for period romances, so this post over on Oh Hello Friend was perfect! My goal this winter is to watch all of these with big mugs of tea while wrapped homemade quilts.... oh man. I'm pumped. (nerrrrd alert!)


Anne of Green Gables (I love these books when I was little), Jane Eyre (2011), Cranford, Under the Greenwood Tree, Persuasion, Jane Eyre (2006), North and South, Pride and Prejudice (an all-time fav of mine already), Emma and The Young Victoria... Thanks for the recommendations, Danni!

I love winter, don't get me wrong, but I feel as if this one has been particularly harsh. Two blizzards, what feels like daily windshield scraping, my pension for keeping the temp in my condo at 55 and having my boogers freeze while I sleep (too much info? ...nah), has me nostalgic for those sunny spring days. 

I am particularly jones'n for my absolute favorite part of summer: farmer's market flowers! They're gorgeous, brilliant and just $5 bucks. Somehow the winter bouquets in the refridgerator section of Target just aren't the same.

So, until spring arrives, I'll just think of this lovely bunch I scored a couple years back!
