The smells of the house after a day of cooking and baking.
The house decorated for Christmas.
My family all around.
My dog's snores.
My husband playing the piano.
Oscar the great blue heron.

Bulbs poking through in the late winter.

Sleeping in and having no plans for the day.
A bath in the middle of a cold winter day.

I was struck by how much I still love him after 20 odd (sometimes very odd) years, and how much he loves me, and that fact alone makes me happier than anything else ever could.

All this spiritual talk is great and everything...but at the end of the day, there's nothing like a pair of skinny jeans. - Jillian Michaels
