More “Simple” Pleasures😊

party mix

I made a big batch of slow cooker party mix last week.

And today, I’m enjoying a little dish of these yummy morsels, along with a good, long Kindle browse. A simple pleasure.

It got me thinking again about all the simple (but special) pleasures in life we can so easily take for granted.

Here is a short list of some of my:

Simple Pleasures…

-Enjoying the morning outside, with a fresh organic coffee and sunshine on my face.

-Curling up with a good book under a warm, cozy throw.

-Creating something special in the kitchen.

-Watching a new plant sprout and come to life as it breaks through the soil.

-Listening to church bells on Sunday morning.

-Savoring a pleasant memory from long ago.

-A long, brisk walk.

-Rain on my face. 

❤❤❤

😊 The list really does go on and on.😊

What is one of your favorite-

Simple Pleasures?

Hope You Have a Wonderful Week!

 

 

Lest We Forget

My thoughts are with the families and friends of veterans, this weekend.

And most of all, with the veterans (here and passed) who have served so proudly and given so much.

Thank you for your service and your sacrifices.

❤Lest we ever forget.❤

🍁Happy Thanksgiving!🍁

It’s Thanksgiving weekend, here in Canada.

🌼I have much to be grateful for.🌼

This holiday just makes me think about those people (past and present) and things, even more than usual.😊

I think it’s a great idea to start the day, with a gratitude list. I try to do that, every day. Sets a positive tone for the rest of the day too.

🌹What are you most grateful for?🌹

Happy Spring FEVER!😊

Spring FEVER has arrived even earlier than usual this year!

In spite of a very mild BC coastal winter. I’m still craving spring in a big way.😊

How has your winter been? It’s not over yet but hopefully spring will arrive sooner than later, this year.

🌼Happy Spring!🌼

Christmas: A Time for Miracles

christmas-miracles

Check out my new review for this eBook: Christmas Miracles, especially if you are in need of some hope and inspiration.

I really enjoyed the holiday-themed stories in this eBook

In a world that often seems to have gone mad (just watch the news!!) it’s so easy to give up on goodwill, hope and miracles, big and small. But the world IS filled with all kinds of good people and wonderful things, we just need to be open to seeing and believing that’s true. 

I wish you all… a magical and memorable holiday season!!

 

Be in E-Motion

Isn’t this good advice? 🙂

Launch Lives Through Wellness

It’s up to you to make sure you know what you digest! Just because it looks good and smells good doesn’t make it healthy or remotely edible. Take the time to research the food you eat; your body will reward you by allowing you to live a healthier longer life!

Be the investigator into you health!!!
