king of the castle & other simple things
hanging out with my sweetheart: playing king of the castle, enjoying orange spice tea with honey on cold, wet, afternoons
candlelit mornings: starting cold, dark, days with a warm heart
girls night out: a friend’s brilliant idea/invitation to a bookbinding workshop evening
the weekends: staying in bed late playing and talking with my boys, i love late, slow, breakfasts with fresh bread from the bakery, i love not rushing to get the them out of the house
being let in on happy secrets: knowing plan details to a marriage proposal 
~ these are just some of the simple things that have made me smile/happy this week ~
enjoy more simple things: christina at soul aperture

November 17th, 2009 at 1:27 pmWhat a winning king you have there too
I’d love to play King of the Castle - that’s one board game I don’t think I’ve ever played.
So many simply wonderful things to enjoy - thank you for sharing them! xo

And that must be so wonderful, knowing the details of a marriage proposal! Your restful-morning-family breakfasts with fresh bread sound delicious.
