A List of Yumminess

Thanks for stopping by and indulging me in this kinda random, but not really, post!  So today is my birthday and I thought in the spirit of reflecting on my life that I’d share with you some of the things that make my life yummy and delicious:-).  These ingredients bring me joy, smiles, fun, and just make me feel damn good!  Some are silly, some are serious, some might be obscure unless you really know me…just stuff that floats my boat!

I’ve said before that birthdays are a perfect time to reflect on what you want to have more of in life (see below) and what you’d like to have less of (things you’re tolerating, people who are negatively taking up space, fears you’d like to move past, etc.).  In a future post, I’ll tell you what things I’m working on having less of, but in the meantime, let’s focus on the “more” part!  These are in no particular order, btw;-)

Ingredients That Make My Life Yummy

• Bananas foster coffee w/vanilla creamer (sugarfree of course)
• The sound of rain at night while I’m snuggled in bed
• My husband’s smile and his sense of humor
• My children’s sense of humor
• Mentoring/Teaching
• Fresh cut flowers
• The beach
• Focusing on my strengths
• Music
• My girlie girls (my dogs)

This list is  NO means inclusive (I’ve got tons more!).  Much like a gratitude journal, a yummy life list is unique to you and should be reflective of what you love and enjoy.  Not only am I grateful for the ingredients, but I definitely want to have MORE of the things on the list.

Create your own list and add to it often!  Let’s have some fun~please share some of your yummy ingredients…I can’t wait to read them!

Love,
