I think you could say they have happiness leverage.<br \/>\nApple corer. Used it for the first time tonight, and can&#8217;t believe I never used it before! I love to make applesauce, and this magical little device &#8211; probably inherited from my grandma &#8211; will make it twice as fast. <\/p>\n<p>My new silver 40th birthday earrings. Hubby got them for me on our ill-fated trip to the Kootenays, at our unplanned stop in Kaslo that extended indefinitely due to baby&#8217;s travel burnout and meltdowns. They are small, comfortable and perfect. I&#8217;ve worn them for a few weeks now, every day. They&#8217;re hoops, so my ears don&#8217;t get gunked up. Not a single person has noticed them yet, and I don&#8217;t care: they&#8217;re perfect for me.<\/p>\n<p>Popcorn with butter and nutritional yeast. I ADORE corn in all its forms, and as a snack &#8211; plus the fat and the amazing taste of yeast &#8211; YUM. Hubby has gone upstairs to make me a batch (too noisy to do in the basement with baby sleeping &#8211; yes, sleeping by 9:30!) and I am very grateful. <\/p>\n<p>My new purse. Did I write about this one yet? After my foray into a beautiful red leather one, I&#8217;ve reverted to a $3.50 black nylon purse from VV. It is perfect! exactly the right size to hold all the things I need with me. Just the right pockets and flaps for all my many little things. Comfy strap. Strong zippers. Sturdy fabric. Compactable. Fits into other bags without any problem. It&#8217;s easy, looks just fine, and works perfectly. I&#8217;m grateful for that lucky find every time I use it.<\/p>\n<p>And rice pudding. Yum. <\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s all for tonight, but it&#8217;s enough for me. Little things can make a big difference.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few very little things that bring undue goodness to my life.
