Five things to be happy about {five things friday link-up #9}

Sweet little farms (and fingers), Friday reads and furry friends. Soaking up every drop of Summer while it’s still here and trying to find happiness in everything I can. It’s been a pretty lazy week around here… the kind that’s perfect for tending to long-neglected sewing projects, diving into overwhelmingly beautiful novels and seeking out the very last blooming hydrangea bush in all of Vancouver (I’m sure of it). 😊

I hope everyone is having a wonderful week! Happy Five Things Friday!

Here are this week’s five things at random from Barbara Ann Kipfer’s book, 14,000 Things to be Happy About, plus a five-photo-roundup of things that made me smile this week. Read on for the link-up info.

Five things to be happy about:

• the smell of chalk and pencil shavings
• peeling a hard boiled egg and getting a huge chunk of shell all at once
• young robins trailing their mothers on a search for worms
• a stack of buttered toast
• eating the first freshly baked cookie from the oven even though it is way to hot

Five smiles photo-roundup:

Here’s a bonus happy – quilt block designing! I have no idea what I’m doing, but it seems to be working out. Love when that happens!
