Start #1: Gifts 967...

967. Seeing my office mate with an ear-to-ear grin on her birthday this morning and getting to give her a big birthday hug first thing after I set down my purse.

968. Being able to eat whatever I wanted today, and being more aware of the amounts of sugar and salt I ingest.  I feel like that cleanse made me a more mindful eater; of course, it is day one after the cleanse...I wonder how long that feeling will last?

969. Our phones and Internet were down at work today, so it was a day for catching up on all the reading I've been needing to do and don't otherwise have the time for.  I felt like I meandered between jonesing to get on the Internet and check email to completely relishing the break and non-interruption that and my work phone cause.

970. Pot luck!  Amazing Mediterranean crock pot turkey, my mom's tarragon green bean recipe, multigrain artisan bread with butter, and strawberry shortcake for dessert.  What wonderful flavors and textures to indulge in today!

971. Finding the most perfect little birthday gifts for mom today and getting filled up with inspiration, beauty, and fun at Frances Vintage and Smeeks where I found her gifts - a most delightful 45 minutes of browsing. 

972. Green trees on Central Avenue and green lights all the way home.

973. Coming home to a house full of happy - happy girls, happy husband, and a happy dog:)

974. Incredible homemade baked potato wedges sprinkled with salt, pepper and Parmesan for dinner.

975. Coloring with the girls making birthday posters for Grammy before bedtime.
