Why?
The sun is shining.
It’s turning out to be a pretty nice day.
Coffee.

In my ceramic travel mug. Love.
I finished last night’s run before it was completely dark out. That hasn’t happened in a long time. Spring is coming!

Okay… it looks pitch black here, but it really wasn’t!
Spinach Soup for lunch. This stuff is so good and so good for you! I used Joy the Baker’s recipe, with a few tweaks (white potatoes, veggie stock and chili powder to start).

Green Monster soup.
The hubby is at home, on his day off, cooking and baking bread. I cannot wait to go home and try everything!

Basil Bread (L) and Whole Wheat Mini Boules with Brown Butter, Sage and Flax… all in a day’s work. I know…I’m spoiled!

Meyer Lemon Chicken Stock
We’ve decided to do a dairy CSA Share. Hello fresh milk in glass bottles! Homemade butter and cheese are going to happen!!! I’m super excited. I’ll give you details in a separate post.
I signed up for a couple more (free!) online classes, it’s definitely going to be year of learning! If you haven’t checked Coursera out, do it now!
I got an awesome pair of compression socks (the kind that go up to your knees!) as a gift last night…. perfect timing. I was pumped.

Compression socks are sexy.
I also got these beauties.

Love the color!
Both are made in the USA and made with sustainable products. Love this. Here is the website for more info.
I also got an awesome print of a photograph taken by my super talented aunt…which I didn’t take a picture of. Can’t wait to hang it up!
Anyway, like I said. I’m feeling pretty blessed today. Life is good and I am happy for so many reasons.
What brings a smile to your face? Tell me about it!
