Just a Few of My Favorite Things

The other day I got the floor all mopped and thought to myself how amazing it is to have clean floors.  There are few things I love more.  Too bad I hate mopping, though.  I've got a real moral dilemma:  to get something I love I have to do something I hate.  Life is so frustrating that way.

That got me thinking about some of my other favorite things.  In no particular order:

  • Clean floors.
  • Sour Patch Kids.
  • Holding newborn babies.
  • Getting emails from friends.
  • Kissing my boys' cheeks.
  • Sleeping in.
  • Wearing my pajamas all day.  
  • Going on vacation.
  • French fries with fry sauce.
  • Oregon strawberries.
  • Flower and Vegetable gardens.
  • Going out to eat.
  • Girl's Nights.
  • Listening to Buddy read.
  • Listening to Sambo say new words.
  • Health insurance.
  • The Internet.
What about you?

    Fry sauce! I've gotten to the point where I can resist french fries pretty easily. But if you throw fry sauce in the mix, I'm done for. Love fry sauce.
