Measurements for your successful wintertime survival

The days are getting shorter, the air is getting colder, and the world beyond my blanket is getting significantly less attractive. Winter is coming, I'm afraid. The time of the year when I miss having a bath tub. Only pathological amounts of tea and granny's knitted socks can help. And this:

ZimtSterne


Oh, and did I mention mulled wine? Yeah. Mulled wine.

What is your strategy to convince your neurotransmitters that there's still enough light to live a happy life?

I'm stumped. What is that? Is it oil that smells like primavera?? Perfume? I don't think I could handle that...I would always be hungry! Nicely done though!

It's a mixture of essential oils called "Zimt&Sterne" which means "cinnamon&stars" (word play because there are cookies called "Zimtsterne"). Primavera is just the company. I use it in one of those uuuh... fragrance lamps? (With a tea candle underneath) Or just sniff it. Or put some in my hair to smell like a walking Xmas cookie. :D

Walking Xmas cookie? :D Sounds yummy! I prefer Jasmine over most other scents for some reason. Lovely drawing!
