I find I get a lot more out of life when I learn to appreciate the small stuff. Little indulgences every now and again help to keep my mind off worrisome things and promote inner peace and serenity. Small items I like to spoil myself with that bring me great joy include: small vases filled with hydrangeas, a cup of rooibos tea, scented candles, a long hot bath, perfumed soaps, and a warm serving of brownie a la mode :-) What about you, what simple things do you like to treat yourself to?

A great big yes to freshly cut flowers, long hot baths, a good movie and a cozy quilt!

A movie and a quilt, those are good ones.
DeleteYes, I can't live without flowers, and a long hot bath is exactly what I need right now. I love the tufted sofa and the pillow (so cute!)
ReplyDeleteThat is a seriously sexy sofa.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'm on board with the sofa - it's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYour list sounds perfectly suited to me, with maybe the addition of chocolate, listening to music and quiet time to read. :)
Thanks Gam......awww yes chocolate, how could I have forgotten chocolate :-)
ReplyDeleteA good book, some sewing time, a freshly ironed linen tablecloth, food from the back garden, roses and lavender in the front garden, a walk on the beach...loads of treats for me!
