What is Winter Hygge?

So, I don’t think it’s really possible to talk about winter hygge without considering, if you will, hot cocoa.  The very idea of a warm, decadent, rich drink that comforts you down to your toes is pretty much the embodiment of hygge.  Add a couple of your favorite people, perhaps a movie or a board game, or just a wonderful visit by the fire, and you have yourself the ultimate winter hygge experience.   Check out these recipes, and call your people. Or grab a book…

Wait, what is hygge? And why do I need it in my life?!
