Marvelous

Some days, things are marvelous. Today I feel like I've got a long and growing list of things to be thankful and happy for. Maybe it's the changing season or my renewed commitment to positive thinking, but today I think the world is divine and I've got so much to celebrate. I know we gave thanks last week, but I've never been much for good timing, and I'm on a quest to feel it every day anyway.

So:

the first snow!
the season's last farmer's market tomatoes
fresh cut bread from the baker
home made apple butter
green chili egg brunch
red wine pasta sauce bubbling on the stove
drinks and dinner with friends
art walk
live music in warm places
familiar faces in unfamiliar places
feeling connected to my community
smiling strangers on the street
having a job I love
signing a contract! with benefits!
Saturday errands with my lovelies
a great haircut from the best salon yet
my ever-patient and clever boyfriend
New England microbrews
peanut butter toast


A list of mostly people and food. That seems about right. Here's to celebrating what's good and cultivating wonder.
