Tiny things that are bloody marvellous

[Rockbird]

As an antidote to the irrational hatred thread . I'll start.

Tins of Princes Tuna that are both drained, and have a funky pull lid (not metal) that made me kneel down and weep with joy.

Wine and crisps. Together. Made for each other 😀. Guess what I'm eating 😉

Oh and my almost 2 year old daughter’s uncontrollable laughter when she or anyone else farts!

Daffodils - remind me of my dm
Pics of my dcs when they were new born
White chocolate

Podding peas.lemons. Cider lollies.Dogs who like babies.Swimming in the sea.

A postcard from Grandson away on holiday.

A photo from DS of something that he has just that minute taken out of the oven.

Salty butter melting into thick hot toast.

Eating a perfect peach.

My daughter's belly laugh.
Watching the tomato plant go from flowers to little tomato buds.
My dog sleeping at my feet.
The feeling of closing the door once home and knowing we are all safe and cosy in our little house.

The night before the first day of a holiday from work. Knowing it’s all in front of you and you can stay up late without having to worry about getting up early in the morning. Bliss.

The joy of getting into bed after a long day - the sheer gratitude that someone invented a place that is horizontal, soft and warm. And mid winter, the wonder of the electric blanket!

Good quality kitchen rollmakes me very happy. The Kirkland one form Costco is the best

Sitting outside on a warm (not hot) June day, looking at my flowers and shrubs

@spiderlight my dog likes to carry her food bowl out of the kitchen and upstairs - she mostly seems to manage this without spilling any food too!

Looking through my photo album. My daughter was so gorgeous when she was little. Happy memories.

Just adding another couple.
Tiny, narrow baby heels - I just love them even if they aren't my own children any more.
Knowing that everyone is tucked up in their beds safe and sound for the night.

Being safe

I absolutely love music.

It can make a night out more enjoyable, get you in the mood when doing housework, chill you out if in a bad mood and make you feel better when sad and upset so it can do whatever you need it to. So music above all is my ultimate favourite thing and it amazes me how they even manage to come up with songs and the whole process etc. Brilliant!!!!

Listening to DD cackle with laughter at DH blowing raspberries
The sound of rain (mostly because it means I don’t need to water the garden!!)

But they’re my massive things.

Thank you for the thread, what a wonderful idea!

Charity shop books. I think my TBR list is about a year long at this point but at £1 a book I can have an impressive collection.

A new book by a favourite author.

Thanks Ada

Alice beautiful words.

A cup of black coffee and a handful (or 2) of Cadbury mini-eggs.

Preferably in bed with a good book. Or whilst binge watching something enthralling.
