5 Things To Like This Week

1.  Fall leaves.  I love Fall.  I love the leaves changing color, pumpkins, apple cider, scarves, and Halloween (follwed by my birthday!!).  I also love taking drives through Spearfish Canyon on crisp Fall days and seeing all the different colors of the leaves.

2. My Mom.  No, not your mom.  My mom.  She rocks!  I had a terrible day this week and she was so awesome, just listening to me and making me feel better.  The best thing she said was, "Every day things will get a little bit better".  And you know what?  She's totally right.

3.  Farmer's Market.  My mom came to visit me on Sunday and we went to one of the local Farmer's Markets.  It was awesome.  I can't believe I've lived here for a year and never been to one!  I got a melon, some corn, new potatoes and an onion.  I am totally going back there for more!

4.  Home-cooked food.  When my mom came, she brought some of her fabulous home-cooked food.  I love this!  She made minestrone soup with roasted vegetables and she even individually packaged them so I could freeze them for later.  She also made some fabulous granola bars and her salsa (which is the BOMB)!  I had one of the granola bars this morning and it was fantastic!  Love you Mom!

5.  New Friends.  Sally Hope is a wonderful blogger.  Her writing is inspirational and real.  The pictures she posts are beautiful too!  Please follow her on Facebook!
