simple pleasures


  • running hot water over my hands for a minute or two when i’m cold at work
  • “twisted peppermint” hand lotion from B&BW (it smells amazing and makes my hands super soft)
  • earl grey tea lattes with a hint of vanilla
  • big fluffy snowflakes softly falling outside my window
  • the sound & smell of fresh coffee brewing in the morning before i’m even out of bed
  • thinking i have no wine at home and then discovering a bottle i had stashed away for just such an occasion (and by occasion, i mean a monday night)
  • a bright sunny day after a week of being overcast
  • freshly painted fingernails
  • my cat instantly purring when i get home from work
  • spending an entire day off in my pj’s (which i plan to do this sunday while watching all The Oscars festivities on tv)
what little things make you happy?

That's so funny about your first item - I love running cold water over my hands when I'm all hot in the summer! That and a cold rinse after a hot shower in the summer also :)

I love the smell of the rain on the bare soil; a new found love of pumpkin spice lattes (or the equivalant at Davison Orchards); the wind and waves crashing.

Like you it's those little things associated with sensation that make me happy :)
