Hygge

I just finished reading this book by Meik Wiking about Hygge - The Danish Way To Live Well.  Actually I listened to the author read it to me. This is a short book yet a very thorough explanation.  The author claims that the Danish nation is the happiest country on this planet. Hugge involves being in the moment, being comfortable, being self-indulgent and being satisfied.  Candles and fire places are hugge.  Cozy sweaters, hot tea or mulled wine, and spending time with friends are hugge. In the book are several recipes for foods that are hugge and most involve butter and sugar. If you want to feel more contentment in your life, you should read this book and start living like a Dane.
