My Favorite Things!

MY FAVORITE THINGS!

Sometimes when life gets too stressful, I think about what I'm thankful for, how I've been blessed, and also some of my favorite things. I thought I would share just a few of my favorites with you. This might turn into a weekly feature, but I'm not sure yet. If you want, which I would LOVE, leave a comment below about some of your favorite things.

1. Skittles - My favorite candy in the whole world! I dance every time my husband comes home from the store with a bag of Skittles for me. I love them! When I graduated from high school, my parents filled up a huge container of Skittles as one of my gifts. I finished that thing in like a week. Lol!

2. The Lake - There is probably nothing more relaxing than sitting by a lake and taking in all the wonders that God created. I love putting my feet in, since I can't swim, and just enjoy the sound of the water lapping, the breeze on my face, and the boats that pass lazily by. It's also a great place to catch up on some reading.

3. My Nook - I love this little guy! I have hundreds of books on it  that are all accessible with just the touch of my little finger. My husband gave it to me as a gift when I graduated from the dental assisting program. The thing I love about it the most is that it's more portable than a regular book. I can carry hundreds of books in my purse, which would be near impossible with physical books. 

4. French Fries - I'm a potato girl. I love them anyway I can get them - baked, grilled, sauteed, boiled...you name it! But I have a special place in my heart for french fries. I could eat those things everyday, which sometimes I'm guilty of. McDonald's are my favorite fries, but Five Guys and Chic-fil-A are starting to compete for my affections. Lol!

    1. Thanks for the follow :) Yes, they are super good. I'm glad they have grilled chicken nuggets since I'm gluten free. It's one of the few fast food places we can eat at.

    1. Thanks for following and liking my layout! I wish I was that talented but I'm not. Sue over at As It Seems Designs designed my blog for me. I just suggested a color pallet and she came up with this amazingness! If you scroll all the way to the bottom, there's a hyperlink you can click on that will take you to her site.

      About the Nook being better than the Kindle, I'm not sure on that one. I do know with the Nook that you don't have to buy books from Barnes & Noble exclusively. As long as the book is in PDF or e-book form, it will download on the Nook. I've heard that with the Kindle you're kind of limited to Amazon for your source. But things might have changed since then. I'm following you back :)

  7. Girl. So, since I started yoga teacher training, I've been restricted from eating McDonald's. TORTURE because those are my favorite, right? So, there is this pizza joint walking distance from my place and their fries are AMAZING. I cannot quit fries. I just can't. They're too good!

    1. That would be torture! I swear that they fry their fries in liquid crack. That's why they are so addictive. Haha! I have no reference on that, but I'm just saying :) I hope I never develop an illness where I have to cut potatoes out for the sake of my life. I'll just die a happy girl :)
