My Favourite Things . . .

 

  

A few of the things in life that make my heart go pitty pat. Maybe they will do the same thing for yours. ♥♥♥     

 

Spending time with my sister.  She is quite simply one of my most favorite people on this earth. I love her so much.

Marmalade cats  . . . 

 

Alternate worlds where bunnies where fluffy lined slippers, and sleep in tiny beds, with mother bunnies who check on them to see all is well  . . .  and a moon that peeks in the window and keeps an eye on things. 
 
 

Shirley Temple  . . .  love her old black and white films.  


 

Chocolate covered almonds, good ones  . . .  they are a major weakness . . . 


 

Chickens  . . .  their clucking is such a peaceful, homey sound  . . .

This was the oak that was at the Manor down in Kent. It was massive.  It was noted in the Domesday book and people from historical societies used to come to see it.  If it could have spoken, oh what stories could it have told  . . .
