Heroes

Today's Beautiful Thing is doing something for others and expecting nothing in return. I watched CNN Heroes for the second time tonight and I am overwhelmed.

Laughter

Today's Beautiful Thing is the simple pleasure of laughter. I found a new (to me) blog that I've been enjoying all day. HERE it is. I hope you enjoy it too. (Mouse pad and other items/designs available at their Cafe Press store: HERE)

Thanksgiving Leftovers

Today's Beautiful Thing is my thoughtful aunt sending all of us home with leftovers. I was able to rest today and, when I got up, I only had to heat up dinner for the two of us. There was even an assortment of desserts. Yum yum. :)

Family

Today's Beautiful Thing is family. No matter how far away they move, or how we differ on politics or religion, I love spending time with my family. Tonight was so nice. We did the usual eating, gabbing, cleaning up, gabbing, eating, teasing, hugging... I wish I could see them more often. It was a very nice day. Happy Thanksgiving to my American friends.

Mmmm!

Today's Beautiful Thing is the way my house smells right now. I've baked a pumpkin pie and two caramel apple bread puddings. I hope they taste as good as they smell.

Undies

Today's Beautiful Thing is new undies. There's nothing like the feeling of something soft and pretty next to your skin--even if no one else knows you're wearing them. :)

Lazy Day

Today's Beautiful Thing is a lazy day with the hubby. We went to the doctor, had lunch, and checked out our new Fresh & Easy. Nothing special, but still a nice day.
