Twice the thanks.

1. Today I'm thankful for catching up with my friend, Suzanne, after far, far too long of going without chatting. I love true friendships like ours that simply pick up where we left off and voila! We're back on track, back in each other's lives, as if no time had passed at all.

2. I'm thankful for my afternoon trip to Costco which, despite spending more money than I planned because they have the CUTEST girls spring dresses right now, caused me to bump into two friends unexpectedly.

3. I'm once more thankful for Starbuck's Caramel Apple Spice...a heavenly beverage which lifts my spirits and warms my soul. Now that's a grand(e) order -- one, remarkably, which works every time.

4. I'm thankful for a mostly clean house. If only it would last....

5. I'm thankful my kids go to a school where parents can be pretty involved if they want to be.

6. I'm thankful to have friends who inspire me creatively in so many varied and wonderful ways.

7. I'm thankful for a mild winter but am hopeful we get some snow. My skis are getting d-u-s-t-y!

8. I'm thankful caffeine comes in other forms besides coffee. My most favorite is, of course, chocolate!

9. I'm thankful I can open the fridge tonight and have options. You'd think, being in the grocery business, we'd have a packed fridge every single day. But often, and this comes from a) me not doing the food shopping myself and b) having a husband who works way too hard, I find myself without the basics: milk, bread, eggs. Tonight we're fairly stocked though and, even so, I still ask myself the dreaded daily question, 'What to make for dinner?' Decisions, decisions.

10. I'm thankful for the 'Save' button on my blog which allows me to make a meal, attend a CCD meeting, and return home to finish my list here for anyone who feels like reading it. If you've read this far, I'm thankful for YOU too!

Have a great night!
