The best cure for a hot head and a cold house

I've been collecting bits and pieces of wisdom for my son and soon-to-be daughter-in-law as they approach their January 2nd wedding date.  

Here's a stellar tidbit that combines marital advice in the cracking theme of this week's Autumn Daybook: 
"Always remember, the best cure for a hot head and a cold house: splitting wood. Do it as often as necessary." 
(from How to Build a Fire: and other handy things your grandfather knew )
