Yay!

So evidently today is my blogoversary (according to my ticker)! Yay for me! 2 years! WooHoo!

I am feeling much better. Still not 100%, but better and that makes me happy.

As I was making my favorite oatmeal, Irish Oatmeal, this morning I began thinking about those little thing, those simple pleasures that just make my everyday a little happier. I thought I would share a little bit of my list here today.
  • I love knowing that Trader Joes is in Bellingham. Just a quick trip down the road and I can be there. Even when I don't go I am happy just knowing it is there. I can pick up my Irish Oatmeal, Dynamo Juice, maybe a few treats...Love it!
  • Starbucks. And it isn't just about the coffee (Cinnamon-Dolce, half syrup please). It is about the feeling. I love to grab my coffee sit down with a book and spend an hour reading, talking with the other customers and the baristas - It is just a great feeling.
  • My camera. My camera makes me happy. I love that I took on a 365 project. It has really opened my eyes. However has been a bit difficult the last couple of weeks with not feeling well and leaving the house only minimally.
  • My cell phone. I love my phone as most of my family and friends know. It is a little crazy. Hmmm...
  • Books. Love my books. And magazines. I am lost without something to read.
  • My Fiesta Ware. I love using one of the mugs for tea or pulling out a pretty bowl for my oatmeal. I love that what ever mood I am in there is a color that when I open the cupboard door will make me happy.
  • Ribbon. I just love ribbon. You can never have too much. Plain, patterned, checked, paisley - ribbon rocks!
That is it for now. I have a lot of favorite things. Maybe I will share more with you later! :)

What are some of your favorite things? Share!

Have a great day and Enjoy!

  4. Happy blogoversary! The time sure does fly, doesn't it?

    I'm not going to list all of my favorite things, as the list would be long & ridiculous at this point. I can hardly think straight let alone make a list that makes any sense. I like your list though, so I'll just work off that for now. ☺

  5. Faves today: Bubblegum fruity amoxicillin for little kids (what flavor is that anyway?) how smart is that to make them like it? - excellent!, being well-ish again (nothing like being sick to make you appreciate health), books, clean counters, coffee, sunshine and blue skies, leaves on the raspberry canes and baby buds on the lilacs!
