Now what are your favorite things?
other than the dill pickle, tantrums and the many smells of Ryan (sorry, I just don’t know him well enough), we have shockingly similar lists! Of course I would have to add some m&ms to the popcorn and supplement gelato with on the streets of Italy and add Ben & Jerry’s for my state side favorite.
Also, I have to point out that on the Sound of Music Tour I took in Salzburg, Austria (yes, it was amazing!), my tour guide explicitly pointed out that they never eat schnitzel with noodles and seemed quite offended that ignorant americans would think so just because it ryhmed in a song. I guess she doesn’t understand Julie Andrews.
YOU…Tiff…are one of my favorite things/people!
Me too. And I’ve never even met you. I got to tell James and Dede that we’re good friends the other day, and they probably thought that was weird. But that’s truly how I feel.
Your blog is one of my favorite things.
Some of my favoirite things include *real mexican food *cookie dough *baseball *a good chick flick (The Holiday) *your blog! I like our new cybervisits too! You are fabulous Tiffany!
I like that my friend and my sister have become “internet” friends right before my eyes. It has been really fun to watch.
Some of my favorite things would have to be the exhiliration of laughing with my kids when we are having a tickle fest. Or watching my children sleep, I can’t help gazing into their faces as they rest peacfully. I love when Bob comes in and kisses me first [then it's the kids turn.] I love the pure love Bob shows me, everyday even when I’m grumpy.
And I love the true, honest and caring person you are Tiff.
Wow! Reading your blog is one of my favorite things! I also like warming my cold hands on the lava lamp at work; throwing house parties with groups of my favorite-ist friends on earth; buying new dishes; buying new clothes; ok–buying new anything; reaching the perfect ratio between cold out of the bed, warm in the bed, proper pajama-wear and then reading a great novel late into the night; laughing until I can’t breathe; playing Scrabble with friends; swinging on the porch when the sun in up … or down …; the sound of wind blowing through the big trees in my neighborhood; walking into my house when it smells really great (like cinnamon rolls, fresh bread, or cookies); waking up with the yummy feeling of anticipation-for-something-really-good down in my tummy; curling up on the couch in front of a winter fire; sheesh! I also apparently love blogging on YOUR site. Sorry
You’re the best–thanks for that happy break.
