things that make me smile, vol. 9

1. Being reminded that while I live in my little house, so many other critters call my property and surrounding area "home." Like lots and lots of bunnies, birds, raccoons, deer, and little frogs. (I've heard rumors of bears and coyotes, too!) I hope I can help keep it that way. But I'm ok if the bears and coyotes decide not to visit...

Oh yes, it's time for another rendition of "things that make me smile"!

Things That Make Me Smile, vol. 4

1. Harney & Sons Holiday Tea. Enough spice to make it special without being overpowering. I take a sip and am gently reminded to be happy... it's the holidays! And then I want to invite everyone over for a holiday gathering with tea, wine, and goodies. (If you live in the Kitsap County area, the Starbucks at Barnes & Noble in Silverdale sells the H&S Historic Royal Palaces blends--including the Holiday Tea-- in tins with 30 sachets!)
