thanks for life's simplest pleasures

I am following the lead of my talented friend Christine from Lavender and Limes, and posting some things I am thankful for. I have found that no matter what's going on in our lives, it is always an uplifting experience to remember the good stuff. I posted a while back about keeping a gratitude list - something so easy, yet so easily forgotten. The truth is, we all have a lot to be grateful for. Whether major things like family and freedom, or small pleasures like sunshine and the scent of banana bread... most of the time, life really is good. Thanks for the reminder Christine :)
  • color - the most cheerful thing I know
  • textiles - the comfort of cozy quilts
  • macro photography - creations up close
  • blogs - friends & readers who understand
  • music - "To Everything Turn! Turn! Turn!"
  • sleeping in the Red Bed - ah, flannel sheets
  • laughter - nothing feels better
  • good hair days - never underestimate them
  • flowers - nothing more beautiful
  • the smell of Luna's paws :) 
If any of you would like to follow my lead, please feel free. You'll be glad you did.
