1. Kicking fallen leaves around for Ted, and watching him tear back and forth trying to catch them. It’s his favourite game in the entire world, and makes me laugh a lot :)
2. Red lipstick. Kate Moss 107 is my favourite for winter.
3. Keeping a tidy house. I’ve been trying hard to multitask in order to help keep the house tidy (emptying and reloading the dishwasher whilst dinner’s cooking, you know the sort of thing) and it’s been making such a difference. I’ve been so enjoying coming down to the kitchen in the morning, and not being faced with a tower of dishes we were too lazy to wash up the previous night!
4. Drinking tea out in the cold afternoon air.
5. A kale, apple & cheddar cheese salad, with balsamic dressing. My new favourite.
6. Making weekend plans to spend the day at my Mum’s on Sunday, working on blog projects in her beautiful kitchen and eating a stonking cooked-by-Ma roast dinner.
7. Buying sprinkles. Sometimes buying the most colourful (read:vulgar) thing in the cake decorating section of the garden centre is a must, don’t you think?
8. Carrot soup (another new favourite!) with buttered cream crackers on the side.
9. Listening to a storm raging whilst lying cosy in a hall doing Pilates on Tuesday evening. All classes should come with a storm in the interest of cosiness and feel-good satisfaction, I think.
10. Making Christmas plans. I say this every year, but I *think* I’m going to make mostly homemade gifts this Christmas. Though not for Jason, naturally. I just don’t think that he’d appreciate homemade granola for Christmas, you know? ;)
What’s made you happy this week? :)
