simple joys

yesterday, we went to the Cracker Barrel for lunch.
I wandered over to the toy section, as I am wont to do.

And there I say, peeking out from under a pile of teddy bears, dogs, cats and horses, was a …
Baboon.

:slight_smile:

a stuffed Baboon.

He even has a pink bottom.
He sits on my desk, glaring at anyone who looks our way.
tell me of something simple that made your day.

aww!

Yesterday, I took a nap in my dark bedroom, and freshly baked cookies were cooling on the racks, and my dog was curled up next to me, and there was christmas music on!

Lovely.

I found a dollar outside the laundramat last week. I went over to the Dairy Mart and bought myself a Slush Puppy–green, with extra syrup. Mmmmm…Slush Puppies…:smiley:

Eating a whole bag of crutons.

Lickin’ the bowl from the Nestle’s Tollhouse Cookie recipe.

This morning, I got to enjoy a fresh cup of coffee in its entirety, while it was still hot. that almost never happens.

Later, this morning:
My two-year old shuffling towards me, wearing Daddy’s shoes on his pyjama-clad feet, crowing, “Mommy, lookit!” :slight_smile:

Campfires.

The hug and kiss I get from my youngest Angela Dawn every morning as she heads for the bus.

Coming home from work on a Friday evening and spending the evening drinking red wine with the wife.

Waking up Saturday morning, and spending the morning drinking coffee and reading the paper with the wife.
Hmm… Common theme here. Clearly, I really enjoy beverages. :slight_smile:
