What are your favorite things?



A couple Saturdays ago the three of us were eating lunch and the song "My Favorite Things" came on the radio. So, in an effort to encourage some discussion and family bonding, I proceeded to ask Don and Lindy what their favorite things are. And cue sound of crickets.

Yep, that's what I got crickets! A whole plague of them. Don kind of looked at me like I was speaking a foreign language and I don't recall that he offered up one thing. Lindy didn't play either and she usually doesn't miss a moment to talk. I'm sure her answer would've been something like, "candy, chocolate, unicorns, and diamonds."

So, I'm hoping that maybe just one person will share their favorite things with me. It can be products, activities, people, places, etc. If I were a bit more tech savvy and less lazy, I'd add a Mr. Linky doo dad so you could add all your things on your blog and link right here to them. Sorry...

Hoping you'll share and that this time of remembering your favorite things will bring you great joy...

PS-It wouldn't be fair to ask if I didn't play along, too. I'll work on compiling some ideas and share soon...

Friends that share my quirky sense of humor and outlook on life...and whose blogs I so adore reading because they make me feel a little more normal. And diet coke. Oh...and my new velour lounging pants I got on sale at Old Navy. Julie Andrew. And Elf.

Love this!
My short list is: The movie Mama Mia!, a clean house, a great book, snuggling with Olivia, my sugar cookies, my black New Balance tennis shoes!

Here are a few: grace, Mark, the anticipation of good things to come, the way kids think and express themselves, laughter, music, books, time with loved ones, a fire in the fireplace, and coming home to a clean house (especially when I didn't clean it)!

Hmmm. I have a ton: My husband, my girls, my cats, my puppy, (that may change if he chews anything important on this list), chai tea, oreos, thick socks, enormous bathtubs, big cities at night, Paris (FRANCE, not Hilton), and babies pink toes. I know I have more but I've not had chai yet...
