Inspired by @_Masterseye’s #ThreeThings and @19syllables’s recent thread, I’m going to start a thread of things that have made me smile!

It’s mainly to remind me that everything isn’t a pile of shit and there’s still a lot of wonder around. Do join in if it’ll help you too!
For a start, I’ve just been for a run and ran under a rose that was dropping heart shaped petals
We’ve got M a duvet and pillow set, which is providing a lot of joy! In how cute she looks in her little pyjamas, in how she snuggles into a soft nest when we first put her down...and in how she always falls asleep in a somewhat unorthodox position!
Macaroni cheese will never not make me smile!
Catching sight of myself in a shop window and realising that I am accidentally wearing a spotty mask and dress. Could have been an intentional style choice; actually a coincidence!

Cocktail experiments - today, a mint julep!
Early finishes and Ruby Magnums
Finally finding a home for the origami vulva that @19syllables gave us years ago!!
Evenings sat outside watching the clear sky and waiting for the ISS https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="❤️" title="Rotes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Rotes Herz"> https://twitter.com/ea_unadorned/status/1266842901721559040?s=21">https://twitter.com/ea_unador...
My sister is teaching herself calligraphy and occasionally sends cards as an excuse to practise. They always makes me smile!
There may not be any Wimbledon this year but I can still enjoy strawberries and cream with a glass of rosé on sunny evening!
Making elderflower cordial!

This girl. This girl makes me so happy https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💜" title="Violettes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Violettes Herz">

(And how tolerance is Catsy?!)
M learning how much fun it is to shout YIPPEEE at the top of her voice, while jumping into the air!
This dead stick of a tomato plant coming back to life!!

M does many, many things that makes me happy but today’s winner is how she loves to draw worms! Sitting on the ground, shouting ‘WORM!’ with every stroke of the chalk https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="❤️" title="Rotes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Rotes Herz"> (I drew the spider!)
Bramble cocktail made with foraged blackberries!
Also, having a brother-in-law who is a chef and can make magic out of leftovers. That is definitely something that makes me happy!
M wanted to read another book before bed. She was found a few minutes later, fast asleep, still under her book.

Oh, my heart https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="❤️" title="Rotes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Rotes Herz">
