It's the Little Things: Kusmi Tea
I might have been born with a cheerful disposition, it's true.
My mom says that I was born sunny side-up...
though I think she's alluding more to the fact that I was, indeed, face up.
{Sorry, mom.}
I'm not sure that things don't bother me
like they seem to bother everyone else.
In fact, I can get really worked up
over some really simple things.
{My good friends are nodding their heads and saying "Amen" right now.}
But maybe my reputation for always being cheerful
comes from somewhere else....
I really enjoy small things!
Little aspects of a day can really captivate me.
It makes me feel great to stop and enjoy one small thing.

to make my moment seem perfect.

A pretty tea strainer to do the magic.

that I brought back from Paris
The Prince Wladimir is orangey and floraly...
and, well, I just love it.
It makes me feel like a lady.
I let it sit for a few minutes
while I
rummage through the cabinet for cookies
wait.
Voila!
It's ready.
I can perch in my favorite new chair
and enjoy the sunshine.
{Editor's note: Yes, it is 3pm and I'm still in a robe. Busted.}
What's a small way that you enjoy the day?
