1. This is my screensaver, and not only does this photo save my screen, it saves my day. Having a grandchild is the purest form of love I've experienced so far.
2. Decorating our home for Christmas. Thanks to Lenny, I absorb the holiday spirit. He loves to string lights, decorate, and buy presents! I especially love lighting candles. I've always been a candle person. I like to welcome a spiritual prescence and candles do that for me.
3. Wednesday night comfort food. Tonight I made one of the oldest dishes in my recipe box: "Tuna Bake with Cheese Swirls". Divine comfort.
4. Watching our cat and dog play together. They're about the same size and quite a pair when they roll around on top of each other and chase around the house.
5. A clean house. God Bless my cleaning woman. I'm the luckiest person in the world to be able to pay someone to clean my house. I don't mind cleaning, but I'm not good at it. My standards are too low.
I challenge my dear readers to make a list (at least in your head) of your sweet, simple things.
I agree on the perspective needed on giving thanks after a long hard day. I am thankful for my loving family, walks past the lake with Mr. Sid Vicious and slowly learning to cook better, one experiment at a time.
ReplyDeleteHey Liz, You're a great cook! Do you want my recipe (Grandma's, adtually) for Tuna Bake?!
ReplyDeleteI love that Tuna Bake recipe. I have to make it when only Del and I are going to be here. The girls don't have the same love for tuna that we have. Thank you for continuing to post items for me to read. I check it everyday in hopes of a new story :) Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteLove,

Mmmm! Your Tuna Bake looks divine! You inspire me. Do you use Bisquick for the rolls or make them from scratch? It takes alot of time and I don't usually keep Bisquick in the pantry....how nice it is to make home-cooked meals.
