Do you have anything to add or a list of things to share?
wow...can I come spend the day with you? You do fun stuff. I need to print this and remind myself I used to do these things too...life gets to cluttered and busy sometimes and you rush past simple pleasures. Lovely list Kaye.
ReplyDeleteSuch a great list! Yes, totally agree with the searching through thrift stores and listening to favourite music whilst baking cookies :-)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, that's so funny! I opened my dashboard, turned around to say to BSP (in the context of a conversatino about sizing for baby quilts) "There's this girl in my guild who's opening a shop; her name's Kaye... " and then I turned around to go back to my 'puter and there's Miss Kaye.
ReplyDelete*cue theme from The Twilight Zone* Oh wait, are you too young to remember the theme from the Twlight Zone?
lol
I have never owned a pair of rain boots, but oh I sooo want to now!
ReplyDeleteI love your list. Especially the bookstore and thriftstore point, and coffee on the patio!
I would add to my list, baking pretty desserts, and enjoying them with friends.
These are wonderful things! Ah, the simplicities in life!
ReplyDeleteSit in my hanging porch swing, reading a library book, sipping lemonade from freshly-plucked lemons, and swinging idly away...ahh.
