Cold Weather Essentials, Because Baby It's Cold Outside

It was a rude awakening leaving the house this morning for work,and facing a negative temperature!  Winter has finally set in, so much for hoping for a mild winter right?  Cold dreary Minnesota winter days make me long to stay inside, preferably curled up in warm blanket, a cup of hot chocolate (with lots of marshmallows, but not the itty bitty kind that come in the hot chocolate mix) and of course with the fire place going.  Since I left the house this morning looking slightly like an Eskimo... yes I had multiple layers on, I thought it would only be suiting that I share some of my must have cold weather essentials!  Oh and a link to the most glorious chocolate chip cookies!

Nothing helps beat the harsh winter weather like these fabulous finds!

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

And now as promised, that glorious chocolate chip cookie recipe! Because tis the season for delicious baked goods!
PS sub in coconut for the walnuts you won't be sorry!
Happy Friday Everyone!
