Happy Sunday! It's time to share my happy and grateful list. Can you believe that the first week of December is basically over? Overall, this week has been pretty great and also quite productive. What are some things that made you happy or grateful this week?
1. It's finally December! I love that the first day of December fell on a Monday. It was a nice start to the month and a fresh start to the week.
2. We went to our city's Christmas Tree lighting, and we had a great time. This is one of my favorite family traditions. The decorations throughout the downtown square and surrounding area are gorgeous, especially at night, of course.
3. After coming home from the Christmas Tree lighting, we finally put up our Christmas tree at home. We still need to buy a new ornament, so I'm hoping we can find one this upcoming week. Maybe we'll get a couple of new ones instead of just one.
4. I went to the Smyrna Handmade Holiday Market and had a blast. I loved seeing all the small businesses and had fun chatting with some of my favorite local shop owners.
5. I went to the soft opening of Common Threads Boutique, which is at the exact location as a previous boutique (and also one of my favorites), Blue Bird Lane Boutique, that recently closed down. I was delighted to see that the new owners are former employees of Blue Bird Lane Boutique.
6. Have you heard of food forests? I recently learned about food forests and was surprised to learn about the Urban Food Forest at Browns Mill. Are there any food forests in your state?
7. A song on repeat: Trust by Sophie Lowe
8. I celebrated December's arrival with Nothing Bundt Cakes' newest pop-up flavor, Coconut Cream Snowflake. And it is so good!
9. I read an advance copy of Cristina Ergunay's Central Park: Adventures Through the Seasons, and I loved it! I was hit with a heavy dose of childhood nostalgia, and now I want to go back to New York to visit.
10. I've been reading Brittany Viklund's 12 Days of Stackmas series on her newsletter, Brittany's Notebook. I love her Advent calendar and have enjoyed reading her book recommendations and thrifting tips.
What made you happy this week?
Thanks for visiting!
Until next time...
