Situations/statements that make me or someone else laugh like an idiot.

When people do spot-on impressions of other people.

Bending over to stretch and letting blood rush to my head after a long day.

Perfect avocados.

Which turn into perfect avocado egg toasts.

  1. It’s crazy to think that it’s snowing on your side of the country while it’s supposed to hit 80 at some point in the next week here in Texas. That Mei Mei’s food looks heavenly. I’ve been on that avocado kick too and I’m actually eating one now. *insert avocado emoji I don’t have here*

    Spending the weekend with myself! Taking myself to pottery tonight then coffee tomorrow. Other than that, I’ve got errands and chores to do!

  2. I love mountains of guacamole; and could you send some snow this way? :o) However sunshine is AWESOME too. 🙂 And the pictures of you taking pictures of food are so classic; I love it. 🙂

    3 Simple Joys;
    Puppies
    Family
    God’s grace

  3. All of these made me smile 🙂 Wish I could join you and Christina on that fun foodie and exercise date! Perfect avos always make me smile too. Hope you are enjoying your retreat this weekend!

  4. Yes to all of the snow days! We’ve had so many recently up in NH! Also yes to perfect avocados haha – such a simple little joy. 3 joys: a good cup of coffee, sunshine, the sound of birds chirping
