My Favorite Things . . .

 

These are some of the things in life that I enjoy and which make me happy, inspire me, or put a smile on my face. Maybe some of them are yours too.  Lets share!

A rugged coastline and the sound of waves crashing against the shore.  I could fall asleep to that sound very easily.  It such a comforting sound  . . .

Kittens in pajamas. So cute.  (On a side note, do you remember the children's program, Bananas in Pajamas?  My kids loved that show!)

Love this, and the radiator cover as well.  (Only really well off people in the U.K. could afford to buy those. Tres expensive.)

I love jam and I love this piece of artwork. It is by Katie Daisie.  She has  a shop on Etsy.

Hard ice cream.  I love hard ice cream, more than soft ice cream.  There are so many that I enjoy. I think Orange Pineapple, Strawberry or Vanilla are my favorites.  Dad loves Maple Walnut. Mom enjoyed Grape Nuts.  I am not sure what Cindy's favorite is, I think it might also be Grape Nuts. Dan is not a sweet lover.

To love and be loved . . . 

And those are my favorite things for this week.  I hope that some of them were yours also!

The girl did a wonderful job on my garden yesterday.  Everything looks so neat and tidy. I have never seen them looking so neat. She took all of the weeds, etc. away as well, to the place where you take this stuff.  She came back later in the day with a few hosta's and some ground cover from her own garden to fill in the empty spots. I could not be more pleased. I told her I will contact her in the fall to come and clean things up for the winter.

I took a tumble yesterday.  One of my deepest fears is falling over. Cinnamon wanted to play and so I got the ribbon wand and was taking it over to play with her and she ran in front of me and down I went. Right on my knees too. I have rug burns on my hands and my knees are smarting. I managed to get myself over to the sofa and drag myself up, but I was pretty shaken for a bit.  I am so gratedul I did not break anything. My knees are both sore today so I am taking it easy.

And with that I will leave you with a thought for the day  . . .

Cooking in The English Kitchen today  . . .  Slow Cooker Beef Drip Sandwiches.  Seriously simple. Seriously tasty.  Perfect for get-togethers.  Very little effort needed.

I hope that you have a beautiful Thursday.  It is going to be lovely and sunny here. They are calling for record breaking high temps tomorrow.  Rain on Saturday.  Tomorrow is the big move for dad.  We have a truck hired to bring all the heavy stuff over. I hope it all goes well. Once we get him out, then we can crack on with emptying the place.  Anyways, have a beautiful day.  Stay safe and be happy. Whatever you get up to, don't forget!
