Return of the Love List

Washington is awash in pink, white, red, lavendar, and a host of other lovely colors -- a direct result of azaleas, irises, dogwoods, and other beautiful flora. It's enough to almost make like my commute into work, and definitely enough to totally make me enjoy my commute home.

Today is an almost perfect day. It would be perfect if it were not a work day, but it is late on Friday afternoon and that's close enough.

So...

I haven't done a Love List lately. It's time.

I love:

• Azaleas in bloom, especially when they're left to grow wild and ungroomed.
• The smell of freshly mown grass.
• Watching Joe sleep.
• The steaks from Trader Joe's.
• Not wearing a coat.
• New shoes that fit.
• Finding funky little charming things on Etsy.com.
• Buying funky little charming things on Etsy.com.
• Claritin-D.
• The Tudors. I know! Totally not accurate! Don't care! Guilty pleasure! Shut up!
• Snuggling.
• Hearing SonnyeBoy's voice.
• Triple word scores.
• Milkshakes.
• Being to bypass the post office line and using the stamp machine.
• Getting a great airfare to attend this.
• Feeling sleepy, except when I'm driving.
• Warm sunny days that follow cool damp days.
• Ayr Allergy nasal spray.
• Michael Caine.
• Meeting Joe for dinner.
• Pink dogwood trees in bloom.
• Sliced tomatoes (the baby romas from Trader Joe's are great) with bleu cheese vinaigrette dressing.
• Buttered bagels.
• My Godzilla ring.
• Party time! I must find an appropriate gift.
• The perfect birthday card. Now I must remember to send it when the time comes.

What are you loving this Friday afternoon?

Must show photo of the Godzilla ring.

I'm loving the rain today. The pink roses that trail around my windows in bloom.

Azaleas are just wonderful. I wish we could grow them here. Sigh.
