5 Happinesses for Friday, the 20th of November

1) This American Life, Sunday mornings over coffee and eggs.
It is somewhat of a routine at our house. WV NPR plays This American Life at some ungodly hour (totally sacrilege), so we usually listen to it free on the internet, found here.

2) The sleep after the sick is over.

3) Leaving work early on a Friday afternoon.

4) Being totally immersed in the beautiful works of children's author and illustrator, Jan Brett, for a work project.

5) Going home to Boston for Thanksgiving.

5 Happinesses for Friday the 13 of November

1) Free wool roving.
Specifically, free samples of wool roving from the most gorgeous farm I've ever seen. Victorian farm house, sheep, alpaca, peacocks roosting in huge fir trees, great Pyrenees, mini-chickens, fair prices.

2) Book Club meetings.

3) Kenyan Cafe.
One of the best new additions to Morgantown. Everyone should go there. Masala tea!

4) Books about Little Women.
Right now I'm reading March by Geraldine Brooks.

5) Co-workers who bake fresh sourdough bread and sell it to me.
