I haven’t done one of my Friday posts in a really long time. My longtime loyal readers know that back when I wrote the blog on a daily basis, Fridays were devoted to complete frivolity. On Fridays, I would list three of my favorite things, and then eventually, I had to keep it to just one favorite thing (it’s pretty special to reach the level of “favorite” for anything, and so I was quickly running out of favorites). However, since I haven’t written a Favorite Things Friday post in forever, I actually have two favorites to share with you today:
Daily Sparkles Book by Emma Jasper – I purchased this book at another favorite of mine (Buc-ee’s), on the way to helping our daughter move to her new apartment, this past summer. This book is so uplifting. It is divided into seasons, and each section has lists of wonderful things about each season. Here are some examples from the Fall section:
“The reintroduction of a routine after summer.”
“The sweetness of little tiny pumpkins.”
“Eating a lot of the candy you bought for trick or treaters.”
Daily Sparkles is just a lovely reminder that it really is the small things that delight the everyday-ness of your life. I noticed that this lovely book is also available on Amazon.
And speaking of my daughter and of candy, my daughter texted me the other day that she just purchased the best peanut butter cups that she has ever tasted, at Aldi. So naturally, being a peanut butter cup fiend, I made a special trip to Aldi (where I also purchased a darling Halloween wreath) and I purchased two bags of Choceur Peanut Butter Cups. Each 12 ounce bag offers a generous portion of peanut butter cups for only $4.99. So naturally again, I had to purchase two bags (as my husband and I like to say, “I don’t want to lose money on this deal.”) These peanut butter cups are heaven in my mouth. There is absolutely no way that these bags are going to make it through the weekend, and I only bought them yesterday. Yum! Yum! Yum!
Friends, please add your favorites to my comment section. Perhaps a daily sparkle is remembering our favorite things and also why they are our favorite things. Have a fabulous day and an even better weekend!!! I hope you find a new favorite to enjoy!
