Happiness is.....

  • A virtual hug (or several). I felt each one....and here are some thank yous coming your way...{HUGG}........

  • A knock on the door. A friendly face and tea&chatter. Over the dirty kitchen island. A real hug, the perfect complement to the virtual ones.

  • Knowing that the dirty countertop won't announce it's presence. Not in this conversation. Not with that friendly face.(It may niggle in the back of your* brain, but who says you're right anyway?) (*and by "your" here, I mean ME and my brain).

  • Music in the kitchen.

  • Bread on the rise.

  • Your kind words, and how they brighten even the gloomiest of November skies.

  • Your lovely posts, you inspire me!

  • Diving into a bag of mirchi chips. (Never mind the consequences!!!!)







What's making you happy?

  8. Oh, glad you liked the book! And Duncan's rock-starish looks don't hurt either, eh?

    Such a lovely post--the fundamentals are indeed friendship, bread, music, and books. And may our risks be as pleasantly dangerous as Mirchi chips.

  11. Hey happy you :):)

    For me, I am a firm believer of truisms like- You happy, I happy. Don't worry, be happy. Laugh and be happy :). Simple things in life makes me happy. Yes, it has taken me a while to realise for myself that happiness is not a complicated process. :):):) Just don't let anyone or anything get in the way of that.

  15. Very touching post...and I don't mean the "hugs" only :)

    We don't often stop and think of the little things that give us immense happiness. Your post just did that. I had a few older posts on these lines...time to write another one, I guess :)
