These are a few of my favorite things:

The snow has stopped but the rain has started. The temperature has climbed from a winter minus 10 to a balmy Spring 70 degrees. The snowmen have melted and my backyard once a glistening blanket of snow has become a little muddy, to which my dog’s feet, back, and tail can attest.

Flowers. The flowers are coming, definitely one of my favorite things.

Dogs. I love my dog. I love dogs of all kinds. Dogs are one of my favorite things. Their smell, wet fur, click of their nails on the floor, their wet nose on my face in the morning or their tongue accidently or not on my lips. Their passion for food, chasing balls, squirrels, chipmunks, their everyday is Christmas morning zest, and their unconditional love.

Color. Who doesn’t love color. Color can lift our spirit, calm our minds, and brighten our day. My favorite is yellow. While not everyone is taken by this color, I find it cheery and bright. To me, yellow is a happy color associated with flowers and sunshine. The color yellow is one of my favorite things.

Cookies. Cookies are one of my favorite things due to their infinite variety. There must be thousands upon thousands of cookie recipes. You make em, bake em, eat em, and then start again with a brand-new recipe. They can be healthy cookies, sweet cookies, chocolate cookies, breakfast cookies, workout cookies and so much more. The thing with cookies is there is no commitment. If you make a batch and don’t like them, make something different. Variety is the spice of life and cookies are one of my favorite things.
