happy

So I guess I'm supposed to list 6 things that make me happy. I don't know how I can possibly limit it to 6! but, here goes...

holiday-colored candies

fall

great photography (this is one of Jill's from our trip to Nantucket)

buying gifts, making gifts, wrapping gifts, sending good mail!

a clean, well-stocked refrigerator

this color of green, and great design (I'm a sucker for packaging!)

I've been wanting to start a smugmug gallery of things that make me happy for a long time, and working on this post finally pushed me to do it. You can check it out here -- it will be an ongoing project.

Ooooh! Where did you find the cans of Izze soda? I LOVE that stuff! They have bottles of it at King Soopers in CO (it comes out of Boulder), but I've only seen it at a select few restaurants around here. And in cans! I've never seen it that way before! I love how each bottle has a serving of fruit in it, and it's so tasty!

Great post, Michelle! The pictures add so much to the list.

WHERE? did you get that drink? That is the coolest can I have ever seen! I love your happy list- it makes me happy too :)
Can't wait to see what else gets added to the gallery!

WOnderful happy pictures! We must chat someday about Nantucket. I worked on the island as a chambermaid at a B&B one summer with my sister. FEll in love with it and have been dying to go back since. (I'm still trying to convince my husband that there's a huge market for ER physicians on a tiny little island with no stoplights--he's not buying it.)

I'm ALSO a sucker for aesthetically pleasing packaging--sometimes it's the only reason I buy it! That soda taste good too.

Your gifts are always so beautiful wrapped. I can see why they make you happy. I also love beautiful photographs. The one you shared of Jill's is awesome.

Jana said...

I love the photos. I so want to clean my fridge out so that it will look like yours! I love the photo of Nantucket. Let's go on a Renegade trip there next year!

That drink looks awesome- I love good packaging. Great idea for a gallery.

Hope you are able to sneak over this weekend btw!

I love your happy list. The happy was so much easier for me than the unusual. Great pictures.

Diana said...

Love you're post.
The pictures are so pretty.

Melinda said...

I love your list and all the pictures to go with it. So fun.

I LOVE the clothes from the childrens place! I got my coupons in the mail for them and I was supposed to go today to get my kids their Easter clothes. I am so sad I didn't get there. I love their ties also. It is the best place to shop. I can get cordinating things for all 5 of my kids and they are all so darling.

Glad you had such a great vday and great good mail!

oh my goodness...michelle you and I have some serious similarities...I find a lot of the stuff on your lists that I agree with or am in love with...specially the packaged goodies....I love the fridge...and just the photos! WOW

Elisa said...

Great list, these are all things that make me smile (except maybe packaging, I guess I don't usually notice that) but I wouldn't have thought of them. Very creative! You are so aware of beauty in your surroundings.

So cute with the pictures. I want my posts with lists to look this cute, but I just don't have the photography skills so they are copy heavy. Very cute idea for the photo gallery.

I knew I liked you, Michelle! Your list could be mine, all the way down to the color green and great packaging! I've always wanted to go to Nantucket ... lucky you! Great idea to start a "what makes me happy" gallery. Your pictures are stunning.

Love your list! You've been to Nantucket? How divine. I also am a sucker for good packaging--one of the reasons I love Apple products so much. And could you come organize my fridge? It would be much appreciated.

Jill said...

These photos make your happy items happy for us too!

What a delightful list! So thoughtful to add the photos - it really brings it to life! I agree with Amy on the Apple products and packaging.

i love the photo commentary you've put together. THAT makes ME happy!

Crystalyn said...

great list! i love how you added photos to all of it. fun!

Amy said...

I read your post before I left for Sundance on Friday night. They sell those sodas in their little grocery store, and of course they jumped right out at me. There is a lot of happiness in this post!

loved how you put the photos on there with the list
