The picture here is the epitome of cozy.
It was also the answer to a New York Times crossword clue. The clue was 'snug'.
I didn't come up with the answer on my own. In spite of the fact 'cozy' and 'snug' are two of my favorite ways to be.
Such simple words for such magnificent frames of mind, physical comfort, feelings of love and being loved.
The dog's name is Kiona, and that is her chair.
That is it was her chair. She has now moved to Oregon where she is attending law school vicariously through her owner, and discovering that Oregon weather feels so much better than does Florida's--
Kiona used to live in Florida. Whoever heard of a Siberian Husky being okay with living in Florida--
But such were the circumstances Kiona did live in Florida. Indeed she was born there.
Well, she's out now, and no doubt being offered many new cozy moments in Oregon, especially as it rains a lot there, and as anyone familiar with rainy weather knows, the amount of opportunities to create coziness and snugness are endless.
And I happen to know for a fact that Kiona has her own cozy bed in every room in her new home. I happen to know her Florida chair is being shipped. And I happen to know she covets the new couch anyway.
