Life is full of simple pleasures. It just takes us a long time to figure out that the simple pleasures in life are really the greatest blessings we have.
File' gumbo is a recipe that I have never really mastered. The best gumbo maker I know is my sweet friend, Pattycake. She is making me a huge pot today, and I have been dreaming of it all week long. My mouth has been watering for 3 days. Smelling the spices this morning just made me hungry all day long. Best friends and great food make life grand.
Baylor Bears are ranked #8 this week and are undefeated this far into the season. Watching how Art Briles has taken this team and developed raw talent into football history makes me so very happy to be a part of the Baylor Bear family.
Rain is such a blessing. We take if for granted because our lawns and plants are beautiful thanks to the modern day sprinkler system. However, rain is so powerful. Listening to it pound on the roof and seeing how it fills our little lake in the neighborhood are simple blessings in life that I recognize and give thanks for every time the sky opens up to rain.
So I ask you, what simple pleasures in life make you happy, make you smile and make your day?
