Warm Weather Hygge
By definition, hygge (hooga) according to the Denmark website is about "taking time away from the daily rush to be together with people you care about - or even by yourself - to relax and enjoy life's quieter pleasures." There's a fun little book I read on vacation back in 2018 called The Little Book of Hygge: Danish Secrets to Happy Living and I loved it so much, I bought one as soon as I got back. There was actually nothing more relaxing than reading that little book curled up on the couch in the sunroom with a cup of tea and is one of my favorite memories of that trip. Many tend to associate this practice in the cooler months of Fall and Winter because it tends to focus on the act of being cozy. Snuggling under a blanket, enjoying a warm, healing cup of tea by the fireplace (or fireplace on TV ), lighting a favorite candle while doing a calming hobby like cross stitch or scrapbooking. Being a hyggephant, I can tell you that I never associated warm wea...
yeah I would love to see Labyrynth but it just seems like it could potentially be a disaster. Technically that would be my first time seeing it in an actual theater too, so that would suck. Have a great weekend everybody!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you on the theater aspect. I generally avoid the theater when there could be the potential for large amounts of kids. As for the weekend, my son was supposed to be on leave but it got denied. We, however took vacation time and it was not denied, so we will be heading over to the Mall of America for the day. The hubster hasn't been there yet and wants to see it, so what the heck, why not. We will also hit the Eagan outlet mall on Saturday for fun. The outlet mall I work at is a trailer park compared to the Eagan mall, so it will be nice for him to see how the other cities/mall owners make their malls inviting and just nice to be at.
ReplyDeleteI go to the dentist tomorrow morning, then need to work on house stuff. My goal is to have the back of my car stuffed with things to give away, and this time to make a list of how many bags/boxes I have, so maybe I'll feel a sense of accomplishment. LOL And possibly a trip down to the river walk with the hubs and dogs since it's so nice out. Since we put spring fertilizer on the lawn it's gotten really green and is growing fast so we may have to break out the lawnmovers for the first time this season. Have a super, duper weekend!
ReplyDeleteA loval theater did a showing of Labrynth a couple years back and it was so fun. Mostly adults although it was late on a Friday night and the theater serves alcohol. I think it depends more on what theater and showing you pick if you will have a good experience or not. With new releases I have terrible luck: terns taking selfies with flash in the middle of the movie, Dad bringing 3 restless kids uner 10 to see Deadpool, theater employee’s walkie talkie sounding off. So for me to have a good experience at a unique movie event was memorable.
