Tea and Teletubbies

Kristen from La Dolce Vita tagged me for a list of Happy Things recently. And by recently I mean TWO days ago. I think this is the quickest I've ever responded to a tag!

So here's my list of 6 unimportant things that make me happy:

1. My kitchen. It's exactly what I wanted when we had our house built.

2. My morning tea. It's decaf but still, it jumpstarts my day.

3. NPR. It's my only news source. Well, that, and people.com.

4. Taste Of Home magazine. It's nice to get something other than bills in the mail.

5. When I catch a glimpse of the shows my boys watched when they were really little--Blues Clues (with Steve), 64 Zoo Lane, Oobi, Teletubbies--it brings back good memories.

6. My slippers! I've been known to wear them to the grocery store. I'm sorry.

Thanks again for the tag, Kristen!

I love a glimpse of old children's shows my kids loved, Bear in the Big Blue House, PB and J otter, Barney, now I don't want to watch them all day, but I have a warm feeling remember my babies.
Your kitchen is lovely........

Oh, I'm wearing my slippers right now and someone today asked me if Teletubbies were still on TV? (Whaa...?)

That kitchen is wicked!

Oh no, please tell me you don't wear slippers to the grocery store! Now I have to see a flick of the slippers, post one please!

And from one tea lover to another - do you drink teavana? Their tea is simply heavenly.

Just stopping in from SITS to say, "howdy." I loved the post about your Mother-in Law becoming a U.S. citizen. My in-laws immigrated from Italy in the 20th century. Tell her we say welcome! And Krispy Kreme... well that's the donut of royalty!

I love a nice cup of tea to go with my morning NPR.

Mommy Fabulous said...

Okay, so I don't wear slippers to the grocery store, but I DO love the Blues Clues with Steve. I think I stopped watching when Joe came on.

I can see how Taste of Home can make a girl happy! LOL!
