Thanks Deanna, Ruthanne & Jessica!! |
- They are crammed in to my totally cool handmade basket.
- They are all rather circular in shape & form.
- They all contain (or are) a dairy product.
- They are all delicious and, for the most part, nutritious.
- They are all birthday gifts for me from friends who KNOW me pretty well...
- And, they all make me smile :)
My sweet daughter delivered 2 containers of ice cream (coffee & butter pecan, my favorites) the night of my birthday. Earlier that evening a dear friend gave me TWO 1-pound bags of M&M's. I love those. And, then my sweet neighbor friend, Ruthanne, gave me a half dozen FARM FRESH EGGS!!! (From the hen house of Lillie. Louisa, Lavern, Lucille & Lydia)
Both happiness & joy come in different sizes & shapes. Sometimes happiness comes because you're reminded of a simpler day. Sometimes joy comes from the HOPE you hold for a better tomorrow than what you are experiencing today. Both happiness & joy are important to a healthy life. So, don't limit what makes you smile to what others think is valuable. Choose your own crazy combo's & share your smile with the world!

His Words:
(got this idea from Chase Tibbs' blog)
- "Give me happiness, O Lord, for I give myself to you." Psalm 86:4 NLT
- "Make me walk along the path of your commands, for that is where my happiness is found." Psalm 119:35 NLT
- "The hopes of the godly result in happiness, but the expectations of the wicked come to nothing." Proverbs 10:28
- "Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete." John 16:24 NLT
This sure is a favorite of ours. Yummy! Love these on a lazy summer afternoon.

ReplyDeleteThanks friends for reading... and for commenting :) Recovering Church Lady, if you click on the active link of the hen's names, you can read a short post about the "near death" of those hens recently. However... they've been redeemed :) Smiles, happiness & joy to each of you!!
