This week I'm grateful for:

- the peach oat muffin I discovered this morning
- our night at Shakespeare and getting free coffee for a few days
- the beautiful roses growing outside of our building
- iced tea
- ice cream and gelato and all the flavours!
- my sister's hand getting better as fast as she'd hoped
- my dad finishing another year of school (his 37th!!) and everything going smoothly for the graduation he organizes once again
- my mom's ankle getting better- poor thing stepped wrong and sprained it!

What are you grateful for this week?
Looking forward to a weekend full of football (aka soccer) and the beach and spending some time with our friends and with just each other. Isn't that all one really needs??!!! Have a great weekend everyone!

your lists are always so wonderful, in-depth and obviously heartfelt. I always enjoy reading them. I am thankful for snuggly children, bonfires and s'mores tonight.
I love the Keane and Snow Patrol cd's too, they're great aren't they. Very British probably.
I too, am grateful for living by the beach and for the fantastic weather.
I'm grateful for having a gorgeous family dinner with my mum and sisters in my garden tonight and my little monkeys being so funny and making me laugh til I nearly wet myself!
Lovely post M, as always.
Have a fantastic weekend. Enjoy the footie and have a beer on me! x
OOooh haven't heard the new keane album yet, was mesmerised by the first and played it to death. First saw them at Glastonbury and fell in love. Let me know.
I'm grateful for being alive and having a small group of fantastic people around me, Mads, Boyf, the honeys.
I'm grateful for being given the chance to be in love again, thought I had used all my 'in love' tokens up.
I love your list. Tomorrow evening I have 2 hours free and I am reading the whole of your blog.
Did it, and love it, especially how you met R. The part about his friend writing the best man speech in the back of the car was great. Destiny does exist! Fantastic
