What makes me happy part 20

Potlucks at work.  This week our theme was "red"...couldn't you tell?  From The top going clockwise, a red dino cookie, homemade strawberry fruit rollups (I made), Red Velvet Chocolate chip Cookie (I made), Baked apple (I made), strawberry jello, red tortilla chips, and salsa.  Yum. 

Home recipes that work - a fruit fly catcher.  Gross.

What makes me happy part 19

Going to the state fair...

watching a draft horse show...

chainsaw carving...
Sleeping sheep...

signs that make me laugh...

Random collections people have on display...

And grange produce competitions...
...






















Would you like an adventure now, or shall we have our tea first?

Finally finding everything to make my own laundry soap.

An overflowing fruit bowl

CSA sunflowers in my bathroom.

Blackberry chip ice cream by the pint.

And MAKING my own laundry soap!  I used this recipe.

It takes nothing to join the crowd.  It takes everything to stand alone.

What makes me happy part 16

Indulging in sugary sweetness...
...and finishing Community Season 2.

Fairy tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.

What makes me happy part 15

Two 12 hour shifts, 2 hours at the gym, and catching up on the internet in the dark.

If someone breaks your heart just punch them in the face.  Seriously.  Punch them in the face and go get some ice cream.
