Time for flannel

...flannel sheets, that is!

Today the people who think they know what the weather wizard is up to are forecasting a warm day with temperatures in the upper 70s, but it's been pretty chilly the past few nights. My bed was screaming for cold weather flannel sheets, so yesterday I gave in and switched from my summer knit sheets to my "rest of the year" flannel.

Ah, that was a nice warm sleep.

Interestingly enough, I had a conversation about sheets with Twyla, the hostess of the Guest-Lovitt B&B (in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia). She uses very nice cotton sheets on the B&B beds, but she and Bruce use fleece sheets on their own bed. I never knew that fleece sheets even existed, and I have to admit that sounds like an even cozier option than flannel. I might just have to try them this winter.
