January Storm
Sigh
January is not our favourite month. There are frigid temperatures and severe storms all over the place. Today in our town there is a storm combined with super high tides. The wind is so strong that seismic recorders are registering the waves slamming on the beach as small earthquakes!
What is a Hitty to do? How can we forget about the horrible weather for a spell?

Oh Goodie!
The Quimper Hittys suggest two things – invite friends over, and drink a hot chocolate antidote!

More Please!
Gilly thinks that is the best suggestion ever…

…and the Hitty cupboard is definitely more smiley and cheerful now!!

Quimper Hittys 
Hot chocolate! Those girls have the right idea 🙂
And smiling friends too, the more sharing, the more joy!
Stay safe and warm from the storms, and enjoy your chocolate!
We were lucky and didn’t lose our power this time around! The chocolate was very yummy!
How lovely the Hittys and dolls make out life on and about Quimper Street. The hot chocolate and smiles have surely warmed my heart and made me forget the moment’s issues. Thanks for the sweet post.
We have been having forget-worthy moments around here too…friends and chocolate are very good antidotes!
An excellent antidote to bad weather…good friends and hot drinks! Brilliant!
Hittys are full of excellent suggestions for cheering activities! I love having them around the house, it is impossible to stay gloomy for long.
Just seeing those sweet faces on Gilly and Min makes storms seem less scary. Those adorable smiles, hot chocolate, and a safe and warm home… is everything.
The wind has been blowing all night, but getting less intense. I think we are getting plain old downpours for the rest of the week…the storm is passing over!
My youngest daughter believes hot chocolate to be a cure-all. Love the Hittys’ cozy space…that (embroidered?) picture is really cool.
I think the picture is a hooked-rug very small and quite old. I can see the jute backing between the lines of rags, but I haven’t taken it apart to see. The back is nicely pasted up with brown paper, and I don’t want to undo it. The colours have faded a lot, but it must have been quite a bright and cheerful little winter picture, about 3 inches x 4 inches not including the frame..
It is a wonderful little treasure!
That is a beautiful antique picture. That smile on Min’s face would calm any storm
I was lucky to find the picture!
