Hygge

Last night I attended a "Hygge" party hosted by my friends, Bill and Annie Eyster. I loved the name, the concept, and the great party. I have always lived by these ideas, but didn't know the name of it.

Here is the definition of hygge: a quality of coziness and comfortable conviviality that engenders a feeling of contentment or well-being (regarded as a defining characteristic of Danish culture).

It definitely was a cozy and fun party with music and games...candles and soft lighting. Here are a few photos from the night!!

Traditional Danish cake.

Candlelight set the tone for the evening.

Simple, Christmas decorations.
