Celebrate the Small Things - 17 May

Welcome to another weekly edition of 'Celebrate the Small Things'. Please welcome your host...oh hang on. This is the weekly celebration of the small things in life. The welcome cup of tea. The flower blooming in your garden.

The instructions are simple: Sign up on the list, post a celebration, hop around and congratulate others and say YAY and be gleeful.

I have had a crazy busy week (hence no reminder email - sorry!) so my celebrations are:


  • My colleague bringing me a cup of tea when I was too busy to make my own
  • The fact I now have a few days off with my boyfriend
  • Looking forward to a lie-in tomorrow
  • My tomato plants growing well- not long to tomatoes!


How about you?

Remember to hop around the list!

  2. I'm so behind from working lots of overtime. I haven't planted any tomatoes yet. I like to use them for homemade salsa, though, so I need to get to it. Glad yours are going!

  10. My husband loves a good tomato sandwich. Me, I need some mozzarella and basil to go with it. :) I'm looking forward to the weekend, too - a swim in the pool, some takeout Thai and hopefully a good DVD/movie. :)

    I'm rubbish at growing things so I'm jealous about your tomato plant.

  24. A nice cup of tea from a colleague is always a bonus. My old work colleagues always did that - it was nice. And sometimes much needed.

    Have a great weekend.
