Here's Mine!

Because of our sick household, I have had a few moments to browse some of my favorite blogs and I have noticed a remarkable trend - this week has been the week of "My Favorite Things" post entries. Four of my favorite bloggers did one this week, it is an Internet phenomena. Not wanting to be left behind, I am joining the blog train and giving you a list of my favorite things as well. Maybe you have a list, if so, leave me your URL in the comments, or just list them in the comment section. I would love to read yours!

Some My Favorite Things

the smell of baby powder
a smoking hot cup of coffee
Earl Grey breakfast tea, steamy and sweetened with honey
my Aunt Nell's Apple Cake
a field of red poppies
a clean house
softness of a puppy's ear
cuddling
my favorite tv show on dvd, and a whole day to watch it
crisp fall morning air
my red chair
my "Kiss Me I'm Irish" sleep pants
playing the piano, when no one is home
cooking for my family
a campfire out back
the smell of cut grass
a letter in my mailbox
coconut milk shampoo and conditioner
Almond Joy cookies - OH MY HEAVENS - they are good
pumpkins
recipe books
my laptop
taking pictures
reading on a rainy afternoon
pork chops
celebrity gossip
Mentholatum
sleeping until noon (okay, that is a distant memory - haven't done that in YEARS!!)
catching up with an old friend
Helen, GA,Edisto Beach, SC, and Italy
flair on facebook
a date with my husband
Mellow Mushroom pizza
Pistachio gellato
the color red
jumping on the trampoline
throwing balls to the dogs
watching the sunset at the beach
listening to my child sing first thing in the morning through the nursery monitor
writing it all out - hoping to make sense when I am done.

I really could go on and on, but I would bore those three of you that actually read down to this sentence. I will save the rest for later....

Okay you must post the almond joy cookie recipe.

My faves: being home with my family, my strong coffee with sugar free hazelnut creamer in a big Tigger mug, and the warmth of a sweet, sleeping baby in my arms. And Keith Urban. And sleep. Blessed, uninterrupted, non jet-lag real sleep.
