Favorite Things

It's that time of year again when we make resolutions and review our lives up to this point. In my review, I prefer to think of things that give me pleasure. Here's my list:

  • cornbread and buttermilk
  • espying a rainbow
  • freshly painted walls
  • crisp, autumn afternoons
  • reading a good book
  • email from friends
  • the laughter of my better-half
  • conversations with my children
  • dusk
  • Cheeseburger in Paradise's pina coladas
  • crossword puzzles
  • family photo albums
  • reading the Sunday paper
  • baby animals
  • a lap full of dogs and cats
  • people watching
  • the sound of a steady rain
  • the smell of freshly baked apple pie
  • robust coffee - black
  • clean sheets
  • Harry Potter
  • tanzanite
  • stories with happy endings
  • stories about everyday heroes
  • successfully solving a problem with my computer
  • a yard full of birds
  • key lime pie
  • Madame Alexander dolls
  • falling snow
  • afternoon naps with my cat
  • the call of the goldfinch

I'm sure as the day goes by, I'll come up with many more.

Feel free to share some of your favorites!

Happy New Year.
