5 Things to Like This Week

 

1.  Shock Top End of the World Midnight Wheat beer.  I seriously love wheat beer!  This stuff is delicious with cocoa, spice and chili.  This beer makes me smile more than well . . . most!  It's really good stuff and I wouldn't mind it being my last drink, you know, if the world ends and stuff . . .

 

2.  Three Bird Nest (online Etsy store).  I love my new boot socks (above) from this online shop!  They are so pretty and girly!  I wear them with my slouchy brown boots and tights.  I love the layering effect.  I ordered a cute knit cap too!  Please support small online businesses this Holiday season!

3.  "Gone With The Wind".  So, the other night I watched one of my favorite movies, "Cold Mountain".  Once it was over, I was flipping through the channels and came across the beginning of "Gone With The Wind" on AMC (no commercials!).  It was a Civil War movie kind of night.  It was awesome!  I forgot how much I loved Clark Gable as Rhett Butler.  This is my grandmother's favorite movie and I can see why!  I stayed up late and watched the whole thing (and guess what?  When I talked to her on Thanksgiving day, she said she watched it that night too, which made it even more special!!).  Such a classic movie!  Love it!

4.  Snowplows.  Yup.  Snowplows.  When I lived in Montana, the biggest adjustment I had to make in the winter was the lack of any snowplowing.  Seriously.  It could snow for days and if you didn't live on a main road, you were screwed, or you were shoveling for hours.  I looooove the snowplows here.  Yesterday, it barely snowed and they were out in full force.  It made me smile.  It's funny the things you take for granted . . . 

 

5.  Good, old friends and my sister.  My sister and I hung out with my bestest buds from High School this Thanksgiving!  It was funny, because she is 7 years younger than me and grew bored with our listening to music on vinyl, and reminiscing about skateboarding, sprinklers, and people. . . but she was still a good sport!  Hey, there was beer!  Look, I even grew a beard for the occasion!  Enjoy!

Many Thanks This Week,
