Just sharing.. hehe. (This is for Zhe-Hao who doesn’t know how to turn on his heater until today!)
- Fool the eye: Sometimes warmth is a matter of perception. Warm colors and textures make you feel warmer so change out your decor. Try a throw so you can snuggle under it.
- Cut a rug: Cover up your bare floors with a rug.
- Bake something: Stews, roasts, casseroles and soups are made for the cold weather because they cook at low temperatures for a long period of time and, of course, they warm you up going down.
- Drink something: Wrap your hands around a warm mug of tea, cocoa or coffee.
- Let the sun in: Open curtains and blinds during the day.
- Change your bedding: Switch to flannel sheets, a down comforter, use extra blankets.
- Clean the house: Not only will your house be cleaner but activity will get your blood pumping.
- Cover your head: It sounds silly but wearing a hat (and socks) to bed at night, even if the rest of you is clad in skimpy clothing, will keep you warm.
- It's muggy in here: Use a humidifier. Humid air feels warmer. No humidifier? Open the bathroom door while you're showering.
- Reverse the fan: We've heard that, since heat rises, running your ceiling fan in reverse will push the warm air back down to the ground.
- Do your laundry: Nothing warms you up like clothing straight from the dryer.
- It's drafty in here: Block drafts with weather stripping, a rolled up towel or a draft stopper.
- It takes two: Snuggle up with your friends, or your significant other.
- Something old fashioned: Try a hot water bottle or, before you get into bed, running a hot pan over your sheets. Bags of rice or dried beans, warmed in the microwave, are another option
