Coffee on the deck in the snow, holiday candles burning inside.

Couch & coffee; beer, bloody's and wine;  football; Friends (the TV show.  Real friends, too, tho).  Happy Thanksgiving.

An afternoon with talk shows, fashion mags, and wine.

A steaming cup of tea on the deck, soaking in the fall colors, on a cloudy brisk day.

Bills paid, food in the house, enough money for another tank of gas before next payday.  House as clean as I care to get it.  No place to be today.  Biggest question right now is which book should I read... life is good.

Happiness is coming home to satin pajama pants.  Extra points if they're pink leopard print.

That first sip of coffee on a lazy morning...

Beers on the deck always make life a little better.  Add in a good book and some grilling... :D

Relatedly, tried the TexMex dog today: jalapeno-cheddar cheese dip, jalapenos and salsa.  Worth it.

Sometimes, in Minnesota, we have to wear jeans and hoodies in June.  I'm not a fan of extended winter, but I am a fan of hanging out under the overhang on my deck during a June thunderstorm.  Jeans and hoodies just make it cozy.

It's been awhile...

1) A smoke (bad, I know) in the sun when winter's just starting to turn the corner to spring.

2) A glass of wine and Jimmy Fallon after a long day.
