Happy 101

me, happy

I've been tagged for a few blog awards lately, but I'm terrible about following through on them. Here's my first try. The multi-talented Rachel of elephantine passed along a Happy 101 Blog Award. The rules of the award: list 10 things that make you happy, then pass the award along to 10 great bloggers (it was so hard to choose just 10).

10 things that make me happy in no particular order:
1. warm towels fresh from the dryer
2. voicemail messages from my mom
3. landing on old episodes of "The Office" and "Arrested Development"
4. walking home with my husband after work
5. slicing a pomegranate
6. row boats
7. Jimmy Fallon's thank you notes
8. Earl Grey lattes
9. brown boots
10. doing a (terrible) Christopher Walken impression

And I'm passing the award on to:
Nicole at Everyday Ebullience
Sarah at Sarah and the City
Chelsea at Triumphs and Blunders of a Kooky Gal
Megan at pink o'clock
Katelyn at The Magnolia
Lauren at pen.ny
Abigail at gus & other things
Caroline at Coeur de La
Happenstance
Lovely Little Things

    when i was younger i used to wait for my blankets to get out of the dryer. i'd roll myself up like a cacoon because i didnt want the warmth to escape.


    ok. maybe i still do that.

    You are so sweet thank you for the award. What a coincidence because this morning the first thing I did when I woke up was see a post it note on my laptop to add you to my faves on my blog! Thanks again:)

    Anything fresh from the dryer makes me happy, but towels really are the best, why is this?!

    Going to check out these other awesome blogs now!

    nothing better than wrapping up in a warm towel... or walking home with your husband (preferably arm and arm)... amazing.

    what a wonderful list!
