Food. I absolutely adore food right now.

Welcome to my world, Libby!

Getting my favorite Madison Greene CD back from my sister! YES! FINALLY!

You're a Madison Greene fan??! They camped right next to us at Cornerstone, so I got to spend most of the fest hanging out with them (including a one hour percussion lesson with Nelson). We organized a parade together. They're awesome guys.

ice water and limes (or lemons)

I had to double check to make sure this wasn't the pet peeve thread... :-)...

Can't anyone just serve regular WATER???

(sorry to infringe on your favorite)

no problem, no one here has to be me! except me!

finding time to post on the orchard, even if it is on a slow computer....

Cool opening credits.
Being able to do EVERYTHING in yoga class! Yes!! All it took was a slightly-easier-than-usual evening and a full year of practice....

the beautifully designed garden i walk by everyday.

Winning vintage clothes on Ebay. (I'll post a picture once my dress arrives.)

Cutting Brandon's hair -- and doing it well.

Not having to leave the house so I can wash all my bras at once.

Hearing that my sister *officially* closed on her new house today, and that she was standing in her new garage, crying tears of joy.

: )

Finding the perfect frame for a particular photograph.

: )

White russians. Three of them, to be exact. <grins a big, goofy grin>

Ahhhh: Kahula!!

: )

Ohhhh ... I have to reign myself in with those. Hope they're still a favorite thing tomorrow morning.

Nothingness.

Getting to see fireworks!
No longer living in the Village -- meaning I no longer HAVE to go watch the fireworks regardless of how freaking tired I am if I don't wish to stay in my apartment and go deaf from the reverberations.
Talking with my mommy and daddy.
Long, lovely walks.
Good friends.
Orchardites!

my current beer buzz. i've earned this, somehow...

Getting caught in the early morning rain....ahhh - it just makes my day!

::skips around::

Indeed they are. <grins>

friends who phone daily to see how you are and who can set your fears to rest.
people who drench you in prayer.

amen to the prayer post, d. i don't know what i'd do without some friends who do the same for me.


favourite things, continued:

sleeping in
going to movies
touch lamps

Wearing out my professor's dog so she will rest while I visit the Orchard.

Napping on busses.
Beautiful days.
Iced coffee.
Being a music snob.

Playing house. In a real house!

you're so darn cute, becky!
*****

really thick symbol dictionaries

You never need to earn a nice beer buzz...that is a fundamental right of human beings everywhere

Hmmm..I haven't done this in a while. What the hell...


-- Ceylon Breakfast Tea

-- Rioja

-- no-sugar-added cherry pie...so that you get all the wonderful tartness of real cherries.

-- new guitar strings

-- crepuscular rays

-- the word "crepuscular"

-- finding wheat pennies

-- looking *down* and seeing clouds when I'm on a plane...this never ceases to freak me out.

-- listening to my best friend Dre read aloud...esp. if it's some over-the-top, heady academic book. It's like NPR right in my living room.

-- screen porches

folks who are willing to help you out of a bad mood - generally by offering trips to the coffee shop.

nice!

listening to karin and linford singing about poop.

I've got NPR going in the living room. I think the dog likes it.

Oh, and I became an NPR member two days ago, so I'm quite proud of myself for that.

listening to old favourite albums while driving in my car
meeting someone who actually has an 8-track player in his car
going shopping for used books

Don't have an 8-track player in my car (don't even have a cassette player, anymore!), but I did/do have the KISS Destroyer album in vinyl, 8-track and CD formats!

: )

(This is one of my favorite things, about me.)

Having supper with one of my best buds - chatting about life, loves, ups, downs and having just a stress-free night.
Oh, and getting some Chai soy milk.
And, getting my drink free at Starbuck's.

Raisin bran.

Final Fantasy.

Chat arguments that subtly work their way into the Orchard.

That ROX!!!

*wink*

getting odd looks from total strangers.
Bjork

Putting together the *perfect* thank-you card!

: )

Coconut ice cream pops.

Anticipating some healthy food after a *very* unhealthy food endeavor at work last night...

living near the ice cream capital of the west coast.

finding the ice cream for sale at every store for cheap.

eating that ice cream.

yummy!

The writers in the orchard. Thanks, guys, for posting.

Cute things that my kids say.

Just a moment ago, Anya said, "I got pig-toes and you got brains." (She has pig-tails and her sister has braids)

ice cream between two homemade chocolate chip cookies!
