It’s that time of year. The dregs of winter have rolled in. The holidays have passed, the New Year has come and gone, and all we can do now is hibernate in our burrows until April.

It smelled amazing, but it’s still a little too early for me (and I love a good fire). This is, however, perfect puffer vest weather.
