It's the little things

Last night was a date-in night and it resulted in chipotle shrimp tacos and home-made peanut butter bars and attempted homemade buckeyes. *buckeyes are peanut butter balls dipped in chocolate, for those of you who have never heard of them*

The dessert results weren't pretty but it was incredibly fun, and I found myself being thankful for the little things that make me smile, warm my heart and feed my joy. Here are some things to give you joy today. It's almost Christmas and who doesn't enjoy a good warm-hearted smile now and again?
