Streams of falling autumn leaves

Swooshing around me like I'm driving in a car ad...

Eurovision

I am grateful for beautiful friends who freely offer a beautiful vintage silk sequin top for me to honour my love of Eurovision. Also grateful for delicious Chardonnay and delicious Roquefort & D'Affinois to share with friends during the screening. Plus wind machines, pyrotechnics, bedazzled blindfolds and euphoric petals falling from the sky. Monsieur Lordi was a nice touch too. Congratulations Sweden!

Zippy little yellow cars

...fill my heart with joy.

Although mine is not a Porsche!

The inventor of dim sum

must have been a very smart dumpling.

Driving down the highway at night singing:

" .....Hold me closer..... Tony Danza!"

A new song a week

Courtesy of The Tall Poppies: So grateful I was lucky enough to go to Uni with such talented ladies who share such beautiful songs with the world!

Winter means mandarins!

Candy from heaven...and it comes with its own wrapper!

Grateful for Grateful in April

I recently started subscribing to the Grateful in April e-newsletter. It was greatful. Thought I would continue being grateful and graceful. A couple of years ago when I was going through a rough time, I bought an A4 diary, kept it next to the bed and every night wrote a whole pageful of "Things That Make Me Happy". I still look back and smile at it. It was really helpful. This is a condensed version of the same thought.
