H is for Hygge - what's that?

This week's Alphabet Challenge is 'H is for Hygge'. The explanation given is quoted from the BBC news magazine  The Danish word, pronounced "hoo-ga", is usually translated into English as "cosiness". But it's much more than that, say its aficionados - an entire attitude to life that helps Denmark to vie with Switzerland and Iceland to be the world's happiest country.
The article lists several things that may represent 'hygge' and which are found regularly in my life - and suggested in this photo - easy chair, knitting, simple comfort food, music, books, choccies and dogs.
