Movie Recommendations!
I think movies go hand in hand when it comes to being cozy. Imagine, being in your jammies, wrapped up in a cozy blanket, a bowl of your favorite snack, your favorite drink and of course a furry friend to watch the movie with you. It sounds like the BEST time to me. Here are some of my favorite cozy movies to watch.

Rowling’s popular children’s novels about Harry Potter, a boy who learns on his eleventh birthday that he is the orphaned son of two powerful wizards and possesses unique magical powers of his own.
