The Path to Joy

A Cook Off (and One of the Very Best Days)!

Do you have ever a day that is just so wonderful and so completely unexpected? I had one a few weeks ago. I had no idea when I woke up that morning that it would make it into my 'top ten' best days. AND that it would involve three teenage boys cooking up a storm!

I'm Crazy Lucky Because...

I'm all about finding new ways to live in appreciation. Sometimes a good prompt, one that allows us to be appreciative of even the smallest things like a wobbly coffee cup not tipping over or Instacart, is all you need! Today's prompt is one of my new faves!
