things that made me smile this week

  1. Finding part of Ro’s snack stashed away in my shoe, a little reminder that he’s there

  2. The older woman driving the opposite way on PCH who flashed her brights at me before turning on her windshield wipers because she turned the wrong lever

  3. Learning By and By on the guitar

  4. Finding the perfect peach green tea at a random bakery in Los Alamitos

  5. Cooking Flynn his favorite dinner and watching him light up when he could smell it

  6. Roman dropping the two plastic cars he was holding and immediately dancing with his bum out and one hand up to “Closer to the Sun” by Slightly Stooped

  7. A bumper sticker that said “AI ain’t it”

  8. Praying for the woman in the DMV line with a giant stuffed sloth next to us

  9. Made a truly incredible salad. Like truly. Incredible.

  10. Found the perfect thrifted linen skirt

  11. My friend impulse bought a bag of marshmallows and has been making exclusively marshmallow based dishes (hot chocolate, smore’s, yams)

  12. Been starting to feel inspired again. Little side quests of creation. See below for what’s been inspiring me lately
