I thought I’d introduce (yet another) category/series here. I am a really big fan of simple pleasures. Little things that sometimes make your day, and you feel their absence a lot. Often, I don’t appreciate my simple pleasures until they’re not there.

I may occasionally end up doing Friday Favorites editions that focus on simple pleasures, but we can worry about that later.

Here are a few simple pleasures that I’m appreciating of late:

• Sitting on the top tier of the double decker train
• When the bread part of a cream bun is sweet and moist
• Russian folk and ballet music
  
  (My Monday work jam)
• Publishing a blog post
  • With my own photos whoa
• Savoring the piece of chocolate I’ve been saving all day
• Gently nice-smelling soap

  

• Fixing something that had been broken for a while
  • Without putting in as much work as you thought would be required.
• Tambourines at karaoke
  
• Babies smiling at you
• Unnecessarily cute food

  

   

Sorry that I haven’t posted all weekend. I wasn’t able to get to a computer on Friday OR yesterday. I am really bummed that I was going so strong with BEDA and was thwarted by unpreparedness. I’m going to try to catch up!

Tell me about some simple pleasures from your week?
