Well, the nice thing about winter is that you don't feel pressurised to spend every free minute outside like in summer, which I find a bit exhausting and there's plenty of time for comfort.<br />@Amber - Aha, nice to find so many Killing fans here :-) I totoally agree it's one of the best series ever. I still have 6 more episodes of Series One to go and have an idea who the murderer might be. The second series starts next weekend in the UK and there will be a final one too. Can't wait. I love ginger and shortbread and together they're amazing - thanks for the compliment about the stained glass.<br />@Melanie - Oh thanks, it's lovely to read that on a Sunday morning. Great too that you ordered the Liz Earle as I really think it's one of the best cleansers out there. I haven't tried any of her other products yet but they all sound great. Take care.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06967855350498876132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3703049574993181756.post-23536012237511628732011-11-12T11:32:18.959-08:002011-11-12T11:32:18.959-08:00Your blog is great, I read it all the time.

It's nice to find so many readers who love the same things and also to learn that the Killing has done so well worldwide. The second series starts soon and apparently there's going to be a third. Have a lovely weekend and take care.<br />@Coco - Thanks a lot. Hope I've inspired you and can'T wait to see some of your winter photos.<br />@Julie - I've so missed your posts and comments too so it's lovely to find one here :-) Hope you're well and that you're enjoying this wonderful late autumn.

I, too, love winter walks and Jane Austin. I also think your cookies are scrumptious. This is my first visit to your site, but I'll definitely be back. You've created a great spot for your readers to visit and I really enjoyed the time I spent here. I'll definitely be back. I hope you have a great day.

What a great idea to organise the closet for colder days, I must do that this weekend. Like Denise, I'm intrigued by the Aquaphor and had never heard of it before. It sounds perfect for me. I'm jealous of you knitters because it's such a wonderful winter hobby and it must be such fun picking out yarn. Sigh! Let me know about the books you choose.<br />@Julia - Merci beaucoup de m'avoir fait découvrir ce film car c'est vraiment un de mes préférés. C'est chouette que tu fasses aussi la soupe de chou fleur, j'ajoute un peu de moutarde et du cheddar râpé à la mienne mais la prochaine fois je prendrai un peu de muscade. Le week-end dernier j'ai finalement eu le temps pour réaliser ces "Bullar" et c'était une réussite, même le tour de main dont j'avais tellement peur. Il ne reste qu'à traduire la recette et la publier ici.<br />@Monica - First of all, welcome and thanks for stopping by. I'm so glad you liked my list and that we have many things in common. Yes, I really did have a crush on Niles and still think he's cuter than Frasier. It doesn't matter that David Hyde Pierce is gay. But apparently there are others who also felt the same!<br />@Barbara - Aha, another House of Elliott fan, how nice. Somehow TV series on DVD are really satisfying though I can't explain why. I love Mad Men though am ashamed to admit that I've never gotten beyond series 3. I lack the viewing stamina to follow anything for years. It'S hard for me to imagine a different kind of winter like you have but it must be nice not to have to worry about treacherous icy pavements, no?<br />@Denise - I know, aren't the comments wonderful! I've also added The Cat's Table to my must read list for winter and am sure I'll love it. Hope you like Kitchen Stories, the music is also great and each time I see it, I want to move to Scandinavia more and more.<br />@Kat - Oh thanks dear friend! I see you've also put together a wonderful list so I'm going to stop by your blog very soon.<br />@Sasa - Nice to see you here and hope you're well. It seems strange to think that winter is already behind you and I hope you have a wonderful summer.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06967855350498876132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3703049574993181756.post-25518785804227566992011-10-31T14:08:47.076-07:002011-10-31T14:08:47.076-07:00This is a great post!

Je partage pleinement tes choix, à commencer par Kitchen stories et la soupe de choux fleur que j'ai justement réalisé hier pour la première fois ;-) Elle était très bonne avec un peu de muscade, du lait de soja et du comté râpé... et si belle avec son blanc velouté de saison. J'ai aussi refait une série de "bullar" (à la cannelle cette fois). Mmm...

@Rosa - How nice you also...@Dzoli - I sure hope so.<br />@Rosa - How nice you also know Kitchen Stories and also like watching TV series. Hope you've found some time for viewing in your break.<br />@Deana - I can just imagine that House of Elliott style would appeal to you. It'S funny that you mention Castle of Oranto because that's one book I've been meaning to read for ages and yes, it's perfect for Halloween. Last summer I wanted to visit Strawberry Hill to see where Horace Walpole lived and wrote but the opening hours were so short - just 2 hours for the house and garden. Hope the first snow wasn't as bad as it looked in NY. I was thinking of you yesterday.<br />@P.K - That's exactly it, we have to learn to work with what we've got. I can imagine that winter walks would appeal to you and look forward to seeing the seasons changing through your photos.<br />@Susan - I was sure we'd have so many things in common and it makes me happy. Am glad you're not feeling so blue and most of all that you won some lovely hand cream. FB is good for something then. It really is the best quality; I can't stand anything greasy or strongly perfumed.

On Friday I reorganized my wardrobe—winter clothes at eye level and summer tucked away in drawers. Yesterday I bought yarn, lots of yarn and more knitting needles. I swear by Aquaphor to keep lips from chapping and hands from cracking.

Your list is charming and I think the tradition of reading together on holidays is brilliant. I was just reminded about Castle of Otranto (NYTimes travel article on the city) and thought it would be fun to read on Halloween... that Clarimonde story was great too... read by a woman from Hong Kong with a very interesting accent.
