The fact that this blog does not give up on me.
Homemade soups in autumn.
Real, old-fashioned food.
The wealth available to everyone in books.
My amazing little family...

A slice of Adam's from The Cheesecake Factory.
Getting a seat on a standing room only train.
Critiquing American Idol with D.
Perfect sunny days.

Relative sanity.
The fog that envelopes us, making the ocean palpable.
The blanket an incredibly thoughtful woman knitted for us.

Finally exhaling on the weekend.
Novels to which I cannot wait to return.
Right now - Anticipating seeing Mozart's Requiem with my love.
Trying almost anything new.
Ramen (NOT the kind in the grocery store!)

The warmth of my dog snuggled against my side.
When my husband brings me ice cream.
Cabins on lakes.
Our kumquat tree, which has given us a bounty of fruit this winter.

The three day weekend - a glorious pool of time into which I can dive, swim, float, frolic and play.
Soaking in warm sun.

Reese's peanut butter cups.
The magnificent 100 year old, four story Moreton Bay Fig tree outside of the Japanese American Museum in downtown L.A.
The free book exchange in my workplace library.
The thriving office plants that clean the high-rise air I breathe.
Feeling anticipation to get home to my love.

Quiet train cars that allow me to read.
Balsamic vinegar aged 25 years.
My husband's health.

Lazy Sundays when no one in my house changes out of pajamas.
Catching up with my Mom on the phone.
My husband cooking us a creative lunch.
The sounds of a football game on T.V.
Our dogs sleeping peacefully.
So many good books waiting to be read.
The delicious smelling, full balsam fir that served as our 2012 Christmas tree.
