Hugs

Happiness is...

Hugs. Human contact that reaches straight through you to lift your spirit and feed your soul. Hugs are the most basic form of interpersonal warmth, and they remain my favorite. They are unlike any other physical contact... They communicate affection, friendship, and support.

It's the best way to start the day, and it keeps me going til the end.

Big mug

Happiness is...

The big mugs. I love drinking cocoa, coffee, cider, what have you. The way it warms my throat as I gulp it down is irreplaceable. And after a long frigid walk home, the first thing my frozen fingers crave is a steaming drink to wrap themselves around. But it feels so much more rewarding when I'm holding a giant, neat mug in my hands. You can have your crisp, white, perfectly flat mug. I like mine whimsical. Whatever the shape, no matter the colors, things are just better if it's fun.
I don't truly believe that size matters... with a couple exceptions.

Care packages

Happiness is...

Care packages. I can handle anything else that comes up this week, because I've got love from my friends. Booya.

Included:
- Bath salts
- Candy
- Journal
- Magnets
- Wall hanging
- Blank notes
- Gift cards

Let's see... what could make it better? Oh yeah, if I had all my friends in that box too. But for now, I'll take it.

Apple Everything

Happiness is...

Most definitely Fall. It's my favorite time of the year for a multitude of reasons. One of these is apples. I love everything about them. I love orchards, I love cider, I like just eating them or baking them into pies, crisps, bars, and all of the above.

Honey crisp, zestar, braeburn, gala, or my new favorite sweet sixteen, I love to grab an apple and bite into its juicy goodness. And there's no better time than Fall for that. tonight it was a combination of all of this awesome, with an orchard, fruit dip, eating, and baking (the apple crisp was by far the best one I've made in years). Tomorrow, I shall continue. Just you wait.


So,what's your favorite part of Fall? Corn mazes (I love those too)? Photos (yeah, you know me)? Crunching the leaves (which I believe I've already written about)? Cuddling up for the first time in the year (I wish)? Back to school season (hehehe)? Or do you simply love it as much as I do?

Sleep!

Happiness is...

Sleeping in... even if it's only until about 8am. In the early morning your bed is warm, cozy, and perfect for you---which is exactly why it is so painful to leave it. You look forward to the weekend just for that extra couple hours of shut eye.

One-third of young adults are pathologically sleepy during the day. The extra-hour of sleep received when clocks are put back at the start of daylight in Canada has been found to coincide with a fall in the number of road accidents. And sleep loss of four hours is equivalent to being drunk with a blood alcohol level of 0.1%

Today wasn't exactly everything I dreamed of. However, despite the rough afternoon I had today, my morning was awesome, and remained warm and cozy until I decided I'd like to get up and shower. If only it was that great every morning.
