Survive winter

It's a new year, and for many of us that means gray skies and cold weather. In this episode, we chat about survival techniques: theme words for 2017, how to stay cozy (hygge), and embracing warm, nourishing foods. Sonja has a fireside chat with recurring guest Melissa Coleman of The Fauxmartha, and we share soup recipes, book picks, and workout recommendations to keep you going through the winter months.   Melissa Coleman is The Fauxmartha: Website | Instagram | Facebook   Our podcast about "hygge" was Episode 3   Recipes: Tomato artichoke lentil stew | A Couple Cooks Creamy coconut curry pantry soup | A Couple Cooks Sweet potato soup with harissa and greens | A Couple Cooks Pomegranate spice "hygge" cocktail | A Couple Cooks   Books: 11/22/63 | Stephen King The Book Thief | Markus Zusak   Workout videos: Best Abs Ever | Rebecca Louise 45-Minute Cardio + Toning Workout | Jeanette Jenkins A Couple Cooks on Instagram and Twitter
