Michele Emrath from Southern City Mysteries has bestowed upon me Happy 101. Now I will go ahead and share ten things that make me blissfully happy. Then I’m to tag ten bloggy friends. So they might see fit to repeat history.
BLISS INDUCING STUFF
1. My very first cup of morning coffee. I grind my own beans and coffee is best if you drink it immediately after it’s been brewed.
2. When my phone beeps and someone is sending me a cute photo. Especially if it’s one of my kids sending a pic of a grandchild. Yay! Got two today!
3. When I settle down to watch a movie in our home theater room and little Lita (think 3 lb Chihuahua) gets on my lap, burrows under the blanket and falls asleep.
4. The Husband, in general.
5. New shoes turn me on.
6. Traveling anywhere for any reason.
7. Project Runway
8. A perfectly chilled glass of chardonnay
9. Going on a hike and watching The Husband photograph wildflowers in the spring.
10. Writing fiction.

I love the award! Especially because it's a Happiness award, thank you so much! That has definitely made me much happier today.
I am so pleased that you're into it!
What a nice surprise, Lizzy! Thank you! I've been offline most of the day working on my WIP. I'll be sure to post it first thing tomorrow, okay? Have a happy Friday! Woo-hoo!
Sure Stacy, at your leisure.
Love your list! Congratulations to you and all the winners!
We share some of the same bliss-inducing factors. Such as that first cup of fresh-brewed, freshly ground elixir. The Husband, in general. New shoes. What about The Husband in new shoes??? I'd change the chilled chardonnay to a nice room temperature Pinot. But hey, we're pretty much on the same page here.
Fun post.
How nice. Congratulations. It's wonderful to see so many simple pleasures bring you joy. It's a gift not everyone has. Good for you.
Best Wishes Galen.

Oh, thank you!!! But you have my name as Kristen. LOL!! (Not that it's not a super name)
Thanks for spreading the happiness to me!
Oh man, sorry Jennifer, how embarrassing! It is easy to get all balled up when preparing these lists!
First I have to say that I'm turned on by the cupcake pic! I love cupcakes and thanks to you I now have to go off my eating healthy diet plan and go buy some! LOL!
Project Runway is one of my favorite shows too!
So much fun getting to know you better! Thanks for sharing!
Congrats, Elizabeth :)
Great choices - and I'm with you on several of your happy moments!
I'm with you on the wine and coffee. :) And you've given me some more links to check out...thanks!

I love the same cup of coffee in the morning. Delivered please, by my wonderful husband, in front of my favorite window, in my favorite chair.
I agree with you on #'s 1, 6 and 8. Coffee and wine, and then writing non-fiction. Fun to read more about you.
This is precious! I'm working on it! Thanks so much.
Oh Boomer, I'm happy you're happy!
Great list! Congrats, Ya'll! Cheers!
I love the things that make you happy. Especially loved the pictures and movie watching. =]
I groaned at #8 because this pregnancy I miss a glass of wine more than I did last time. And on a hot summer day there is nothing more blissful than a chilled glass of chardonnay! Thanks for this award - it looks like fun!!
Fun, happy answers. Congrats on the award.
Kim, what a reward you'll have after giving birth. That lovely glass of wine at the end of the rainbow.
hee hee thanks mom. but is it legal to get this award when i am your spawn?
Thanks for including me among your posse; I'm honored! I'm with you about that first cup of coffee...and wine is never bad.
Elspeth
I've never ground my own coffee beans - except at the store. Now I might just have to.
My first thought was coffee, too! I'm picky, though. No vending machine mud for this girl. But a true cup of good coffee is bliss, no question!
Memes are a blast, I love them.
Felicitations on your award my Dear it is well deserved.
Warm regards and a lovely week to you.
Congratulations! Love that list, the coffee, the wine, the walks, the trips.
You have a posse? Cool!
Love it! Esp #4 and #10 heeee
WHAT? How did I miss this post??? (I knew my fingertips were tingling for a reason!)
CONGRATULATIONS on your awesome award. So well deserved. And thank you, thank you, thank you darling Elizabeth, for recognizing Casa Hice and sharing the Happy 101 with me. To be counted among your recipients is honor enough. Thanks again, chica.
I promise to post my happy things soon after I give it some thought and consideration. I mean... to whittle it down to only ten? Hard!
Love you Liz!
I am also hooked on Project Runaway! I can't wait to get back to US and see all the episodes saved on Tivo.
How fun! I love to read stuff like this on people's blogs. It's always so interesting :).
Blessings,
Kim
Hey, I love new shoes too. I think pretty shoes is in my top 6 list.
Finally I'm taking a trip round all the sites I "follow" - I'm a rubbish sort of follower. I've have a bit more of a browse whilst I'm here...
