How to stay warm in the winter:
Option One: Hats and scarves!
I must have about a billion scarves (and lots of winter hats as well). To me, scarves are the only fun part of cold weather. Otherwise I’d be happy if it were 75 degrees all year long.
And they double as photography props, like in this oatmeal photo.
But there is another way to stay warm…
Option Two: Henry and Batman choose to park their butts in front of the heat dish.
All. Day. Long.
They even exercise in front of it:
Strrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrretch!
(Henry is very good at downward facing dog.)
Batman is just very good at being cute.
I haven’t been posting many photos of them lately, because they live at my parents’ house and I often forget to bring my camera when I visit. But they’re just as adorable as always!
Option Three: Pumpkin Bread in a Bowl.
It’s one of my favorite warm breakfasts, and it tastes especially good with raisins. Or chocolate chips, of course! I’d share with Batman and Henry… however, they won’t even leave the heat dish for food. Their hierarchy: heat > food > walks > everything else.
Question of the Day:
Do you like scarves? And winter hats?
Tomorrow: Another way to stay warm… A chocolate way

I think all hats look goofy on me, but I definitely do scarves – mostly outside though, not just for fashion! 🙂
I’ve never heard of using a heat dish before! Your pups certainly have their priorities right!
I’m not a huge scarf and toque person. Yes, it’s cold here, and I have a few toques and scarves… but I always wear the same two sets for years and years until they wear out. This is year three (?) for the Vancouver 2010 Olympic set… black/white/red knitted toque with a pompom on top and red knitted mitts with the Olympic logo on the back and big white maple leaves in the palms. I don’t know… I don’t have any fashion sense, and when it’s cold, warm is all that matters.
Your dogs are a-dog-able! 🙂 Love those pics.
Yes, I became obsessed with scarves while in France. I wear one every day in the winter and since it is cold in the office, I don’t take it off! 🙂
I LOVE scarves! My favorite is the Gryffindor scarf that my boyfriend’s mom made for me for Christmas 2 years ago!
I LOVE scarves and hats and I have a small collection of them….in the back of my closet…
Because while I got a fabulous amount of use out of them when I lived in Ohio, I have lived in Florida for the past several years and have found only one of two occasions to get them out! I miss a few of my adorable winter coats as well.
But, it’s a brisk 77 here on this January day. 😉
As someone who grew up in Northern Canada I had a bit of a chuckle about needing hats, scarves, and heat lamps in Texas!
LOL well we don’t today! But it’s usually in the 20s-40s (at least in the mornings anyway) here in Dallas. Sometimes we even get snow. Last year we got 2 feet!
But still, that’s probably child’s play to someone from Canada! 😉
Or to “someone” that lives in Chicago! Boooohooo.
I do so love scarves, not just for winter, but all year ’round. And I must wear hats, I’m so sun sensitive. Hats with big-wide brims. So they’re not really winter hats. Put I just put different scarves around my hat, add a seasonal pin and it looks like I have bunches of hats. Then a scarf around my neck,
I also think Henry and Batman are cute. No dogs for me now, but I have two cats. One can be adorable, when she’s not a grouch, and the other is adorable ALL the time, even when he’s bad. ♥
I love scarves, must have a gazillion myself! Hats, not so much. I also like to stay warm by standing in front of a Zac Efron poster. I pride myself on my resourcefulness (;
Girl!
You are absolutely stunningly beautiful!
I look so funny in hats. I wish I didn’t, because I love them and they keep my head nice and toasty :).
You look adorable! I’m not a fan of winter hats/beanies but I do love my scarves. By the way, your dogs are so darn cute!
