My Happy List

1.   My daughter is home from college this weekend.  Spending time with Shanley Belle makes me very happy!!!  *squee*  We are going to a movie and watching the Alabama football game on TV tonight, Roll Tide!



2.   I won!  I won the neatest prizes from Glitter Tart Designs. I entered Caroline's giveaway during the Practical Magic Blog Party.  Getting neat prizes in the mail makes me very happy!!!

3.   Speaking of prizes, I am participating in my very first ever Blog Swap sponsored by Miss Angie and Beth.  And guess what!?!?!?  Mamarazzi, the hostess of my very favorite blog party (My Happy List) is my partner!!!  :D   I cannot wait to begin shopping for her Monday.  Shopping for fun stuff makes me happy!

4.   Do you remember Quisp cereal?  I loved their commercials because they were made by the same creative team behind the Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoons.  Remembering fun things from my childhood and sharing them with my kids makes me very happy indeed!

5.   My sweet friend, Willow, from My Irish Cottage made me my signature you can see below. Bloggy friends who share make me so very happy! Thanks so much, Willow.


This is the last Saturday that Mamarazzi will host My Happy List because she is moving the party to Tuesday beginning October 11th.  I hope she will have more participation during the week because many of you do not blog on the weekend.

Until next time...

Blessings!

    Your blog post made me *happy*!!!! Here's something funny, as well...I haven't heard the word "pun..ny" (as you posted on my blog) in many, many years but strangely, about an hour ago I was talking to my daughter about her friend who uses a lot of puns...and I said...."she's pun..ny"!! LOL Great minds think alike! Have great fun with Shanley!! xoxo

    I loved Quisp as a kid!
    I remember finding a box back several years ago.... in a lark, and brought it home to share with my children too.

    Please tell me, Ricki Jill... did you paint the still life on your masthead?
    OMG.... unbelievable. And mouth watering too!
    Drool-worthy!

    Love it.

    Spending time with my family makes me happy. And shopping - that's always fun!! I don't remember the cereal Quisp. Cheerios and Cornflakes was the cereal I used to eat as a kid. I always like your 'Happy' posts because they make me happy too.

    I have never heard of that cereal. Maybe we did not have it out in the west. I love things from childhood too. Hubby always has to have Boo-Berries that come out each Fall. Sounds like a good weekend for you all. Start of my very busy week. I miss summer and free time.
