Raindrops on roses...

are pretty, but they don't really do a whole lot for me. Neither do whiskers on kittens. After reading Stacy's blog last night, I decided to come up with a little list of a few of my own favorite things. Here goes...

  • Brach's Conversation hearts (fresh in my mind because I just bought a bag from Target today)
  • Brand-new books
  • A newly discovered author
  • Baby smiles
  • Autumn colors
  • Planning for vacation
  • People who know when to stop talking
  • Pick-your-own produce
  • Clever come-backs
  • Libraries
  • Bookstores
  • Homemade chocolate chip cookies
  • Unexpected bursts of color
  • Twilight time
  • Clear skies
  • The smell of coffee (but not the taste)
  • Fish Tacos
  • A kindred spirit
  • Cary Grant
  • Alfred Hitchcock movies
  • Unexpected words used in casual conversation
  • Good manners
  • Japanese gardens

    What about you??

- Sonic Diet Coke!
- Sunshine
- Blue Skies with just a few clouds, to make the sky appear even bluer
- Books!
- Burn Notice
- Football (even if they change players all the time!)

I would agree with most of these favorites with brand new books at the top of my list.

Yummy chocolate chip cookies. I second that one. :)

Great list.

Your list is perfection! Especially Cary Grant and baby smiles. My favorite things include Glee!, Frank Deford, new authors, tulips, children who smile and old pictures.
