Bonfire Night!

I am so excited for this years bonfire celebration... I love fireworks! Mind you, I get excited about everything, so do not take my excitement literally, because actually while I love fireworks I never go outside to watch them. I like to stay in the comfort of my pjamas (or onesie if you prefer them.) with my favourite companion, a nice mug of hot chocolate sprinkled with icing sugar (not the crystalized sort, I do not want you to mistake for a builder!) with baby marshmallows on top. The problem for me is that I am way too sensitive to cold weather and at this time of year, especially this year, British weather is slowly decreasing. In fact, today's weather was so bad, I got this year's scarf out (for those 'hot rods' who never experience cold weather, a scarf is usually wool and goes around your neck to keep it warm...) and it still wasn't enough. Maybe it is just me that has these feelings towards sub 20 degrees, or maybe not. At the end of the day, I have grown to not be bothered if I am the only one wearing a bobble hat in the middle of August!

Now I have had my excuse for not fully enjoying bonfire night, I am going to tell you about some of my favourite things about bonfire night. Be warned, some of these things are completely random and just further outline my questionable sanity. 1. Fireworks. They are an obvious favourite to everyone because of how magical and beautiful they are. For me, they remind of the countdown to Christmas! 2. Sparklers. Although many people disagree with the concept (because of silly, over worrying adverts advertising them as a doorway to either amputation or DEATH!), I happen to love them. They are about the only thing that I venture outdoors for... 3. S'mores. What can I say? Thank you America for these heavenly treats. Lets just say they have marshmallows and so that it enough for me to think they are the best thing on the plant! Oh and I forget, they are food so you can eat them. Enough said. 4. Fireworks Wrappers. For me, this deserves it own little message (don't tell me that I didn't warn you.) because they are all so bright and colourful and I always get excited at the point that I first see them. 5. Friends and family. It is one of those things that I find special because no matter if you are in your pjamas (Or onesies) or not, you don't care because you can just be with the people that you care about, and most importantly, enjoy yourself!

I hope that you all enjoy yourself tonight or whenever it is bonfire night for you. Remember to post a comment telling me all about what you did to celebrate because I love to hear from all of you!
