It's the little things...

It's the little things in life that always make my day a little happier and brighter, so I thought I would let you in and share some with you today! 

How cute is my Bonjour Eiffel Tower toast?! I love buttered toast, and even though I know the importance of a good, healthy breakfast, there is nothing that makes me happier in the morning than a piece of warm toast spread with butter. One of my best friends got me this Bonjour Toast Stamp because my husband and I got engaged in Paris. I love it, it always brings a smile to my face!

Flowers from my husband. He is the sweetest man in the world and always brings home flowers whenever he knows I could use an extra smile. 

I have kept a diary ever since I was a little girl, and now I have boxes and boxes full of them! I love starting a new diary, and it takes a very special notebook to be just the right one for it! I love this "Oh... I just love happy endings" one!

I made this Baked Strawberry Oatmeal last night for breakfast this morning. It is so good! I keep trying to come up with new, healthy breakfast ideas that will make me want to eat breakfast every morning, and this is what I came up with this time! A really yummy breakfast! Recipe to come soon!

How cute is this fabric?! I just love this print, now just have to think of a good way to use it!

This is my absolute favorite smell in the whole world. Vanilla Cupcake. I don't know how Yankee Candle is able to somehow put all these amazing smells into these jars, but this is heavenly! It fills the house with the sweetest smell! 

"Enjoy the little things, for one day you may realize that they were the big things."

I hope you had lots of things to make you smile today too!

  8. Couldn't you just eat some of those Yankee Candles. I had to stop burning the Creamy Caramel one I have because it led to a constant craving for caramels and I happen to have an entirely too easy recipe for heavenly sea salt caramels made in the microwave. It was a bad combo- thankfully I was pregnant so I had the perfect out! :)
