As I've mentioned quite a few times lately, I can't get enough of our fireplace. My dream for every evening that I'm not teaching is to have Ben build us a big fire and simply sit by it as long as possible.
But you know what I like *even better* than just sitting by the fire? Sitting by the fire with a book, a glass filled with a delicious adult beverage, and my dog + hubby by my side. It's literally the best. When you don't get to lounge around the house and/or sit by the fire very often, enjoying this activity becomes a BIG indulgence and an amazing way to bask in the wonderment that is everyday life. This past Sunday, I did just that: I basked in my life. Ben built us a fire at 4pm, just as the sun started to set here on the Cape (yes, thats how early it sets this time of year! It's INSANE!). Shortly thereafter, we popped the top on a bottle of VOVETI Prosecco, a chic, modern Italian prosecco that embodies affordable luxury and classic style. Pouring a glass of this sparkling beverage for each of us not only made a normal evening feel like a special occasion, but it also made me feel like I was living the life of luxury; despite wearing my pajamas and shutting it down for the day at 5pm ;) The thing about simple pleasures--of which you know I am such a fan--is that they're most often totally affordable but make you feel extra indulgent and relaxed. When sipping on VOVETI Prosecco by the fire the other night, I was transported to a life of luxury--which makes sense, because while totally within my budget, this prosecco is a high quality, craft prosecco; only 15,000 cases are produced annually. I bet you're wondering how you can recreate this perfect night that I experienced, aren't you? If so, it's easy. Here's how you can do the same:
Lovely, right!? You can view a few more images of my amazing evening below...
Hope your December is full of affordable luxuries, too!
