The Little Things #27

First things first: Happy birthday, Mom!

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. A nicely organized and cleaned out inbox.

2. Fruit I canned this summer — tastes so much better than grocery store canned fruits!

3. I got my first photo accepted by Tastespotting and Foodgawker!

4. A new freelancing opportunity.

5. Dan gets off work early today. Hooray!

6. Meetup.com — going to my first meet-up, a crafting and cookie decorating party, this weekend! I’m bringing some of my maple sugar cookies... but as hearts, not leaves and squirrels. ;)

    Congrats on tastespottng!! I love that website so kudos for making it into their system! Also how do you organize your gmail inbox into the 3 categories? Sorry if you’ve written on this before but I would LOVE to reorganize my emails.

      I actually started drafting a post about organizing gmail today! So keep an eye out, because it includes details on multiple inboxes :)
