The recent cold spell reminded me of "Bunch" Harmon, the lovable vicar's wife in Agatha Christie's mystery "A Murder Is Announced."
Near the beginning of the book Bunch is telling her husband that she loves living in their rambling, old-fashioned rectory, even though it means a lot of extra housework:
"I like sleeping in a big cold room," she assures him. "It's so cozy to snuggle down with just the tip of your nose telling you what it's like above."
