Since it’s such a beautiful day here in Atlanta, I thought I’d “bring on the sunshine” and list the top five things currently making me happy.
#5– I just discovered that my favorite night-time tea–Sleepytime Herbal Tea by Celestial Seasonings–is now available in a K-cup for my Keurig!
#4– Halloween Peeps! I’m so glad Peeps aren’t just for Easter any more!
#3– A website I just discovered called House of Turquoise (www.HouseofTurquoise.com ) which features everything you can imagine in my favorite color! Let the shopping begin!
#2– I’ve advanced to the Championship round of my neighborhood’s annual pickleball tournament! (Wish me luck in this weekend’s championship match!)
and the #1 currently making me happy– the fall season for all my favorite tv shows has started. Welcome back Revenge, Big Bang Theory, Hawaii 5-0, and Castle!
What’s making you happy this week?

5. The fact that words actually came (along with an outline) late last night!
4. Fall, Fall, Fall… yay! Love it!
3. The walk-off home-run Raul Ibanez had last night at the Yankee/Oriole playoff game!
2. The new TV season (I’m with Jacquie–especially Revenge)
1. Seeing my friends and whiners this weekend!!!!! Can’t wait!
Just realized that the Vampire Diaries has the season premiere tonight! Oh, yeah!!!!
I like that Dee didn’t kick me when my Sox were down. Terrible season, not a word. Though, a little trash-talking among friends is always welcome.
Yankees rule, Red Sox drool
There’s the trash talk. Well, this time you’re right so I won’t argue.
5. My slow cooker. Put stuff in it in the morning, write all day, get dinner out of it later when everyone’s home and ready without any hassle.
4. Reynolds makes slow cooker liners (found in the grocery store plastic wrap aisle) so that I don’t even have to fuss over clean up. Big smiles there.
3. My husband, who occasionally brings dinner home so that I don’t even have to do that much.
2. Writing! Love, hate, love, hate, but getting paid to do it makes me so happy.
1. New Whiners! So fun to have new sisters.
Love all those, Sherri! I have a great crock pot and don’t use it enough. Pretty much all I make in it are beans and chili. You’ve inspired me to look up some crock pot recipes.
Chicken soup yesterday, beef stew today. Pretty basic stuff so far. I haven’t bothered with recipes yet this season, but I might need some fresh ideas soon. The main thing that freezes me up when I’m writing is thinking I have to stop soon to make dinner (really, I start thinking this hours before dinner. Oh no, I am going to have to stop to make dinner!). So making it in advance before I get going really helps.
I do the same thing! Am going to look up crock pot cookbooks on Amazon.
5-Cooler temps
4-Apples and Berries are in season now
3-Merlin has started!
2-Bonfire night is soon (remember remember the 5th of November)
1-Cadbury Scream Eggs (with green yolks!)
Cadbury Scream Eggs??? MUST look for those!
I saw them a few weeks ago, but resisted. I just saw a store coupon for hot cider k-cups! I have to get those.
Apparently I’m not shopping in the right stores!
