My Open Fire

During these long, cold winter nights, there's nothing I enjoy more than to snuggle-up in front of a warm open fire...

But first, you've got to build it...

Then light it...

...Ta-da. Are you impressed with my fire-lighting skills? I'd make a good 'boy scout' eh?

Ahhhh, the open fire...

...sometimes I like to relax...

...sometimes I work on my blog...

...and sometimes, when no-one is watching, I just like to 'roast my nuts'!

But usually, I just like to drowse in the warmth and...

...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Hello Homer!!!

I loved seeing the picture of you "roasting your nuts" in front of the fireplace! You're too cute (and handsome).

I read in your profile that you have traveled basically ALL OVER THE WORLD. WOW! Impressive! I think your next move should be to Vancouver!

Love nibbles,

Excellent way to spend a cold winter's day, Homer! Good to see you've mastered all the important skills. We admire your self discipline. Afraid if we got a nice stick in our mouths, we'd run around playing with it.

Hi Homer, that's a pawsome fire to snuggle up by. Happy New Year too, sorry we haven't been able to come by much.

Hi Homer,
sorry I had missed your post!
I like your skills with "fire";)
I'd love to keep you company on your warm sofa... You look so very comfy!!!
I am not so good as you are in lighting up a fire, my humans do that, but I am really good in stealing wood and bite it into small pieces!!!
PS: plus I am not allowed on the sofas in the living room... but they take my cushion over there, so that's acceptable...
Ciao Lucille

Hi Homer - some things shrink if they get too near the fire!
