So often, we get caught up in our day to day routines and forget to appreciate the little things in life. In my Little Things series, I like to honor the details that are making me happy today, and ask you to do the same!
The Little Things making me happy today are…
1. Adorable ornaments from Heather’s Handmade Christmas ornament swap. Thanks, Kristina, Kat and Ashley!
2. Blogger secret santa gifts from Amanda.
3. Push-ups and Pilates ab work.
4. Cha Cha Sugar Plum tea from Kelly. I love the seasonal flavors!
5. Borrowing DVDs from friends.
6. Garlic Gold was kind enough to send me a holiday gift box. I’ve been craving the original Garlic Gold ever since we ran out, and I’m excited to try the vinaigrette! Yummmmmm.
7. Holiday lights strung around our living room.
8. Clementines are in season! I plan on picking up a big box of them tonight.

My puppy! I missed him so much when we were gone this past long weekend in Florida. I love kissing his soft little ears!
Merry Christmas, girl!
Clementines are my big thing. My boss just brought Hunni cookies and me 5 clementines. And Heather gave me two oranges. Feel like old Christmas with orange as the big treat.
hey julie can you just shoot me an email or drop a line so I know if you got your gift, I’m nervous it didn’t arrive
Today’s list of fabulous little things:
1. Peppermint tea with a bit of honey
2. Watching the rain fall (from warm, dry living room!)
3. Planting tulip bulbs
4. Inspecting the peach trees and their swelling leaf buds
5. Being grateful for my health, family, and friends
6. Knitting with soft, bouncy yarn!
It’s always good to appreciate life’s little treasures.
Such a fabulous list! And clearly, you live somewhere far warmer than I… no tulip plantings or peach tree bloomings here!
i love that we have matching ornaments
thank you kat and kristina!
