I Love Wednesday

A few things I love right this very moment...


This Target commercial





Turning off the A/C, TV, and music to tune into the storm outside


Neil Patrick Harris and his impending fatherhood


The latest issue of Real Simple waiting in my mailbox



A fabulous calf-slimming, height-increasing pair of heels


Kicking off said pair of high heels


Seasonal candy



Streak-free mirrors


The smell of a cedar chest


Mums beginning to bloom



Grandparents


A handsome neighbor around whom I schedule taking out the garbage


A salad of epic deliciousness



AAA membership... and not needing to use it


Blowing raspberries on fat baby bellies


Random rainstorms that get me out of filling the birdbath with a watering can


What's makin' you happy today?

  1. That salad looks beyond delish!

    I'm so jealous of the U.S. for having Target. I wish I could shop there. We have Zellers, Giant Tiger and Walmart, but it doesn't even close to as good as Target. It makes me want to take a road trip!

    Right now... I'm loving exercise! (FINALLY!)

  5. That Target commercial reminds me of The Royal Tennenbaums for some reason. I think it's the song and the kid with the tennis headband.

  20. This plant on my desk turns the most amazing shade of RED when it's in the sun. It looks like it's in fire. It's awesome.

    Books that transport you in time and make you daydream all day long.

    Sleeping in. Surrounding yourself in bed with freshly cleaned pillow cases.

    Opening the window and getting a fresh breeze.

  21. And kicking off said pair of heels, YES! But they're so pretty and confidence boosting while they're on, aren't they? :)

    I think you know what's making me happy today! Finished with this round of embassy craziness! AND the lady was SOOOO nice and positive! She said, see you in two months. Like everything was already a done deal. She used words like "when" you and hour husband go to the states, bring this with you... (instead of if). I'm also so so so happy for blueberry juice and a salad that is very similar to yours!

    And happy to read your Wednesday list, which I'm kinda in love with :)

  32. Forging heels even though I'm only five-one makes me happy. I don't care if I'm short, I've decided to embrace it.
