We MUST go have pedicures and follow up with a Classic 50’s drink soon! That sounds like perfection!
Jenn Lee says
Happy birthday, friend! Loved your list…we have lots of favorites in common! Some of my favorites are coffee, crochet and cross stitch, This Is Us, listening to podcasts (Risen Motherhood is my absolute favorite), my new Pioneer Woman cook book and crock pot, singing the Trolls soundtrack in the car with my kids, and sleep.
Jennifer says
I love Podcasts, too! Not sure why I don’t listen to more of them. I love anything by the Pioneer Woman! I actually just ordered new bedding by her as a birthday gift to myself. HA!
Dana Shapero says
Cuddles from my boys, their smiles, hearing Terran say more and more things clearly, watching This Is Us when everyone else has gone to bed, coffee while it’s still at least warm!, treating myself to sushi, a few minutes alone to unwind, connecting with others, seeing my patients have an aha moment, Seeing my bits get so excited when I come home from work (the two days I work), and my new obsession – lash boost
Dana Shapero says
ps. Happy early birthday, sweet mama!
Jennifer says
Lash Boost is the bomb! I’m glad it’s your new obsession! Love your list of favorites!
Krystal says
A snuggle-worthy blanket; a frigid, but clear, mountain morning; the sound of my girls laughing with one another; a sweet, hot cup of coffee; a book that allows me to escape – in laughter, love, another era, wherever; a happy ending…(in my best Julie Andrews voice) these are a few of my favorite things!
Jennifer says
Books! Books! Books! Give me all the good books! I started the series you recommended last night on my Kindle!
Krystal says
How are you liking it?!
