Slowing Down with the Winter Season
Cold winter days remind us to slow down and savor the quiet moments. 
To enjoy slow mornings, simple and comforting meals, time with family, and the joy found in little things; new hobbies, new books, cozy blankets. Outside, the world slows down, and at home is where the little joys truly happen. 
Do you enjoy the winter season? 

Today, I’m using a warm-colored kettle from Hazel Quinn and this fantastic juicer, there’s nothing quite like fresh fruit and vegetable juice to stay healthy while embracing the calm of winter. ❄️

Winter Mornings, Made Simple.
After the holidays, winter feels quiet and unhurried, made for slow breakfasts, quiet weekends, and simple beginnings. 💙

Gently simmered eggs in vintage porcelain egg coddlers.

How to make eggs in egg coddlers:
-Lightly butter the inside of the coddler.
-Crack 1 egg into the coddler (add salt, pepper, or a little cream if you like).
-Screw the lid on loosely.
-Place the coddler in simmering water (water should reach about halfway up the coddler).
-Simmer gently for 6–10 minutes for a soft, creamy egg (longer if you prefer it firmer).
-Carefully remove, unscrew the lid, and enjoy.
-Perfect for slow mornings and simple breakfasts 🍳☕

I thrifted my little collection of vintage egg coddlers. You can find them on Amazon or Etsy, but I recommend adding them to your thrift list, as they’re often overpriced online. 
I’ve linked a few on my LTK if you’d like to browse 🤍😊
