A few of my Favorite Things

Continuing from my last post, I thought I would share some of my favorite things. The first being the color red! If you couldn't tell by my little collage. These are just some of the things I love having in my life (at least materialistic things).

1. Stationary. I can't get enough of it. I could browse stationary all day long and I love having that perfect card or note to give to someone. This one is particular is so elegant and classy.

2. Service. I love serving and helping others. It truly gives me great happiness. Of course, I can be so much better at it than i am, but I recognize when I do it, I am making a difference in myself.

3. Flowers. I love fresh flowers. Roses, sunflowers, peonies and hydrangeas are just some of my favorites. I have a family friend who has fresh flowers in her house everyday. (now, granted she is filthy rich), but I like the idea. There is something about being surrounded by such beauty.

4. Serveware. I don't have the room for it, but i love anything you serve food on. Dishes, platters, cakestands, you name it. I wish I could have sets for different occasions all coordinated and cute. That might have to wait, but until then, looking at all of them is just as fun.

5. Purses. My mom and I were talking about how it is a good thing we don't like to transfer all our items from one purse to another, because if we were able to do it, we would own every purse we saw. There are so many cute purses out there - unlimited choices and some are even affordable. A purse is like shoes - they make an outfit.

6. Target. I love Target. I could go there everyday. I dont' know what it is about that place, but I just don't get tired of it.

7. Julius and Friends. I just love this cute little monkey. He isn't as cute as Curious George, but he is a close second. I think I like this litle guy so much because my uncle gave me a sock monkey when I was little that reminds me of Julius. I love the fun design and colors of this designer.

8. Ice Cream. Ever since my latest pregnancy, I just love ice cream. I can't eat it right now (I don't think Ella likes dairy), but there is nothing like good ice cream. My absolute favorite is Graeters Ice Cream which I can only get in KY, OH and IN. It is soooo good. If you ever have a chance to taste it, don't miss that chance!
