Ridiculously simple surprises

I just got up, everyone asleep, in search of a midnight snack.
For the first time in years, there was enough fancy bread and cheese left to make myself a sandwich. There usually never is at the end of a weekend.
I am eating it ALONE in bed, not sharing.
It has made me ridiculously, simply happy.

What little, trivial surprises make you happy?

I thought DH had eaten all my boost bars and found one in a tin in the cupboard Grin

Oh yes, I found two tiny chocolates that DS had missed on one of his scoffing missions. Tasted better as I felt I'd got one over on a know-it-all 17 year old.

Haha yess! I didn’t even fancy eating it at the time and I think that’s why I’m still awake...

What kind of cheese was it?

Uglichsky. It's Russian (not in the UK). It's imported to here, so quite fancy for me! The DC devour it like vultures. I was so pleased to find enough for s sandwich and a half.

For reasons on another thread I'm staying at my lovely mums place - last night I got out of the shower and into bed in my old room and it was super cosy.

I realised she'd put a hot water bottle in it while I was in the shower so it'd be warm when I got in.

Then I went for a little walk just now to clear my head and she had put a babybel in my pocket!!! I mean there's cute and there's ridiculously cute ❤️

God I got a good one with her, I might stay here forever!

Ps I can confirm as a 32 year old women babybels are still fucking tasty. And fun to open. I have no idea why that bit is so satisfying.
