    Sunsets, relaxing at the beach and reading after a hectic week also makes me happy! <3 Checking in from the link up!

    I can relate to so many of your points! Sunsets, the beach, reading, flowers, the warmth from a 'real' fire place in winter, chocolate (although I prefer milk over dark).... Lovely photos, these!

      Thanks Vivienne, I could do with making a fire now because it's just so cold!

      Have a good day

      Thanks Melissa, that's really kind. You are really lucky to get beautiful sunsets where you are. We normally have to travel to see a good one. :)

      Unfortunately we don't get that many sunny days which makes them all the more precious! Have a great week too :)

    So jealous of your views. You have no idea. All I see when I wake up is other houses and animals.

      Hi Alesha
      The first three are pictures of holidays we have been on in Greece. The picture of me sat looking out the rainy window is home! Wish we got sun like that here!

      Hi
      The first two pictures were taken in Santorini and the third in Skiathos. I could do with being there right now for some sun!

    We rarely need it, but I refuse to have a house without a fireplace :)

      Thanks so much, I wouldn't be without my fires either, especially in the winter. They make the rooms so cosy and warm don't they?
