1. A Favorite Book. I love seeing someone else, even a stranger, read a book that I love, especially little kids reading Harry Potter. I get so excited for them to discover the world that I love so much.
2. Bubble Wrap. Come on, who doesn't like bubble wrap?? I even have the iPhone app downloaded! When I was out shopping this past weekend, I happened upon a random piece of bubble wrap. I stomped on it. It was great!
3. Old photos. I don't mean old photos of your grandparents, I mean old photos of you and your friends doing ridiculous things. Don't you have an old photo that just makes you laugh when you stumble upon it? It's like you are suddenly in that moment all over again.
4. Freshly Laundered Sheets. You know how soft, yet crisp fresh sheets are? I wish I could sleep on fresh sheets every night...maybe one day when I am a successful businesswoman and have a live in maid...but for now, I have to settle for doing it myself, so obviously they don't get changed everyday. I like freshly cleaned sheets more than most people. Yep, I just said that.
5. Mail and E-mails from actual people that I know. Sure, I love a sale or new Coach styles as much as the next girl (if not a little more!), but don't you love it when you check your email and there is something from someone listed in your contacts; it's akin to handwritten letters of yesteryear...and no, forwarded chain emails do not count. They give you that false sense of excitement and then are usually a letdown. But real emails rock...so do E-cards. The only form of communication that is better is getting a real letter (thanks Di), postcard (thanks Di), or a card!
Just some of my favorites...what are some of your faves?
You know you love me...
XOXO
Real handwritten letters are the best! Also, very therapeutic.
