10 things that make me happy

Valerie challenged me to share ten simple things that make me happy... This should be easy if it wasn’t for the fact that there are lots of things that make me happy. But I’ll try:

1 :: spring, sprouts & sunlight
2 :: breakfast together with friends
3 :: when my daughter makes funny faces to make me smile
4 :: dark chocolate filled with ginger and lemon
5 :: laughing together with mr. Yonder

6 :: beach sand under my toes & the sound of waves
7 :: the words “summer afternoon”
8 :: when crafting ideas “pop” into my head
9 :: hot coco with cinnamon

10 :: decorating for Christmas

I pass on this challenge to ten other wonderful bloggers, and each and one of you can decide if you take the challenge or not:

Denise
Lucy
Camilla
Sarah
Alex
Jane
Diane
Kristine
Olivia
Natsumi

P.S. Did you notice how I sneaked in more than ten things in my list *smile*

  9. Denise, I love your number two and number ten. Ten reminds me of my grandmother on my mothers side. She has such a beautiful handwriting and would always make small tags, notes, & write down recipes.

  13. What a wonderful grandmother. Handwritten recipes are the best. Does anyone use recipe cards anymore? I haven't seen one in a very long time. I wish they were still exchanged.
