@ecoKaren- That’s great you just bought your own domain; congratulations!

@Tiffany- Thanks so much for reading! I loved your “rain on the tent” happy. I love that too! The sound of rain hitting a tent roof when you’re all cozy inside is the best.

How fun! I am new here, and love what I’ve seen of your blog – just subscribed. I posted my Happy List on my blog: http://picnicbasketcrafts.blogspot.com/2009/08/okay-i-was-inspired-by-happy-list-at.html

I have one happy right now. I just bought my own domain name.

OK, three happies, I guess.
1. Finally bought my own domain name (ecokaren)
2. Have been working tirelessly to move my blog to the new url. (old one is ecogeneration)
3. Opened a second Etsy shop with the same name.

And even though I rather be vacationing, I can’t wait until everything is set up so that I can enjoy a few days off…even if it means, just sleeping.

Have a great vacation Heather!

Marie…
Thank you, thank you. I have been wondering what brand of coffee McDonald’s has been using. That is absolutely my favorite coffee. I am in Arkansas and have not seen Newman’s coffee in the local markets. What store are you purchasing from?

I’m smiling, Heather — about 4 months ago I switched to nothing but Newman’s Own Organic coffee. I do love it! We’re growing tomatoes this year, too — heirlooms from seed. YUM! Have a great vacation.

Oh Beth, that is a FANTASTIC list.

The coffee I’ve gotten hooked on is Newman’s Own Organic. It’s what McDonald’s is now using for their regular coffee, and it is SO GOOD. Smooth and very flavorful.

I love tomatoes fresh from the garden too! I’m growing my own this year (yellow and red cherry tomatoes, and husky reds) and have gotten into the habit of just eating them like popcorn. They’re so good!

Marie,

Yeah, we couldn’t make it back in time for Bele Chere. But that’s ok! I’m looking forward to hitting all my old haunts (Malaprop’s bookstore, Screen Door, Tupelo Honey for fried green tomatoes…YUM) Last night we hit Lucky Otter for burritos and margaritas.

I’m so happy to be back here!

Hi Heather, hope you enjoy Asheville – you just missed Bele Chere. I used to live in MI, but like it much better down here in the mountains Have a great vacation!

What a great idea, Heather. Here’s my list:
1. Water — swimming in it, looking at it, it doesn’t matter to me.
2. Ice Cream.
3. Cuddling up with my twin 3 year old daughters after bath-time.
4. Books and more books.
5. Tomatoes straight from the garden.
6. Bare feet on sand.
7. Ditto on the thunderstorms.
8. The smell of bread baking.
9. Lying down and looking at the clouds with my girls. We come up with different things the clouds look like.
10. Really good coffee.
11. Cold beer on a summer evening.
12. Laughing with family and friends at silly things.
13. Watching the way my children are learning to make sense of the world.
