- Audio files of General Conference. I can listen to them while I do dishes, fold laundry, cook, etc. I feel uplifted and edified when I can listen to them over again.
- Target's toy catalogue - there's way too much I would love to buy for my kids but I think we're gonna stick with simple and cheap this year.
- A generally cheerful attitude in our home today. There were tantrums and grumpy faces but they were mostly dissolved using laughter and tickles.
- Homemade lasagna recipe from Barefoot Contessa (the kids call her the cooking lady). I use regular sausage, not turkey sausage but it is still a winner every time, something about the fennel seed in the sausage and the tang of the goat cheese. I break this recipe into two batches and frequently give away the other batch.
- Reliving memories associated with an old childhood tree. The roots of my parent's star pine in their front yard were damaging the concrete and plumbing so it had to be cut down. That tree is older than me and my old home is hardly recognizable without it. I loved that tree.

I mourn your tree with you. I hate to see trees cut down.
Wish I could try your lasagna :)
Misty, we loved that tree too! I took us over 18 months to finally agree that it had to come down. I am grateful that when Dad climbed it that one of those rotten limbs didn't give out on him. Love you -
