This Week’s Small Pleasures #31

The firsts few days of 2015 turned out pretty chill.

1. I popped my food processor cherry by making insanely good guacamole followed by flourless date coconut brownies (recipe coming.)

2. We stayed home for New Year’s and it was perfect. We had a bit of an international celebration. Italian by drinking prosecco and eating prosciutto wrapped melon, and Mexican by eating 12 grapes, a tradition that symbolizes luck for every coming month of the year. No hangover the next day.

 3. A clean house. We started off Saturday morning by sweeping, mopping, vacuuming, changing the sheets, doing laundry and giving our dirtiest kitty a bath. It always feels good to have a clean house.

4. Once again, excellent Mexican food at ¿Por Qué No? in Portland.

Weekly Small Pleasures – Blog Event

Share your happiness!

I find that the small things that make us happy every day are easily forgotten.

This blog event is simply about remembering and sharing those small things that made you happy during the week; things that made you smile, made you laugh, made you do a happy dance, made your heart smile…

You can share in any format you like. For people to find your post, tag your post “Weekly Small Pleasures” and link to my most recent post for a pingback! You can also just share in the comments.
