Chocolate.
70's Rock
Really good movies
Really scary movies
A book I can't put down until I am blind
Grandkids saying I love you

A book that you simply cannot put down.
Chocolate
Seeing a movie that makes me cry.
Listening to my son on the guitar à l'improviste.
Celebrating Sinterklaas (the original and far better Santa!)
Making a walk down town
Driving somewhere touristic with hubby
Going to a flea market and find that perfect bargain.

Mmmm I think I'm going to visit Coco: I just don't have any grandkids and she doesn't know Sinterklaas but otherwise...
Thanks for inspiration Linda!

You're a girl after my own heart - I love your list! I'm too tired to think of my own list right now - just got finished mowing our big lawn. But I enjoyed yours!

Your post:) I did not know that about currants.

Those tiny champagne grapes caught my attention at Costco. They were so incredibly sweet and perfect-looking that I was accused by family and visitors of displaying plastic fruit.

By the way, really nice fake fruit does in fact make me pretty happy. I have some pretty awesome fuzzy kiwis that never spoil :)
