Does this give you a warm glow?
It does me! But I admit that a large part of that is memory. I took it at Chatsworth House last year in the company of my daughter. The visit made my Christmas special and I still feel a warm glow thinking about it.
I rarely see my daughter at Christmas but the lure of Narnia brought her to Chatsworth and I managed to meet her there. That represents warmth to me. How about you?
This is Lisa, ‘keeping warm’
In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “Warmth.”

Similar, in some ways.
As you know, we had a health-challenged year in our family, so we decided to have a quiet supper on Christmas Day — then hold our traditional Christmas dinner on Boxing Day.
Both days were lovely. Everyone pitched in with food, or helping, and there was much storytelling and laughter.

Thanks, Ad 🙂 The fur cape was in the kid’s dress-ups. Could do with something a little larger right now. Warm, it’s not! 😦

Indeed she is Jo! She’s currently up in Yorkshire staying with my dad and rugged up in some new winter jumpers she purchased with our Christmas money! It snowed a bit yesterday so she had a sort of white Christmas! Very warm and pleasant here but I probably shouldn’t say that!

Warmth? What’s that? I’m glad you reminded me that warmth is more than climate. And being with my mob warmed the cockles of my heart – even if there were five of the thirteen (and one dog) missing.
