Today's entry inspired by Mrs. G!

My Sacred Life
Day 16

1. Tomatoes: Freshly picked from the garden, nothing better! These tomatoes are in my garden right now; the lovely Laura says if I pick them and put them in a paper bag, they'll ripen. We shall see!

2. Birthdays! Speaking of Laura, today is her birthday! Go wish her a happy one, please, if you're so inclined.

3. Laughter: This commercial had me laughing so hard! I love to laugh; it seems to me fun is vastly underrated in life.

4. Friends. These particular friends celebrated their 20th year since college graduation last year...and kindly let me tag along :-)

5. Grilled cheese sandwiches: Especially with bacon and tomato...comfort food extraordinaire!

6. Angel Perfume by Thierry Mugler. I know it's supposed to be a sweet, foody scent...but on me it smells like Christmas trees as well :-)

7. The ocean. The scent, the sound, the power...it rejuvenates me!

What are some of your favorite things?

I completely love that ad! The first time I saw it, I fell out of my chair giggling, pretty much literally. No one in my house gets why I'm laughing so hard, so I'm glad it's hit some other people the same way!

...mmm, grilled cheese.... {slurp}

Thank you for the Birthday wishes!

Hmmm, most of my favorite things are centered around food - go figure!

-Travel
-The Beach
-a sofy warm cozy blanket on a crisp cool day
-Bear
-the smell of spring in the air

Ohhhh... I was already hungry. And then I saw that sandwich. I almost licked my monitor! I have all themaking for stuffed shells for dinner but now all I really want is a grilled cheese with bacon & tomato! LOL!

Some of my favorite things:
--the smell of orange blossoms.
--mashed potatoes with gravy
--Insalata Caprese
--watching the Sox play
--Autumn-y & Christmas-y scented Yankee Candles
--Disney World
--the Pacific Ocean
--sunrises & sunsets
--Autumn in New England

Ohhh, I absolutely LOVE that commercial!! When the wolf jumps in and spits out the bird I start laughing so hard, I end up snorting! And when that happens my kids start laughing at both the wolf & me....

You are one of my favorite things...and those grilled cheese. Thanks for joining in, Janet. Have a nice weekend.

I SO totally agree about the commercial..It always makes me laugh..And now I'm hankering for the grilled cheese w/bacon and tomato..LOL

I love your list, especially those grilled cheese sandwiches.

And thanks for your comment on my blog but I must tell you, I will arm wrestle you for who get to go on that walk with AB.

I, also, am fond of Snape.

Thanks for stopping by my blog!

I haven't been eating wheat or cheese for the last three months (sniff! sniff!), so I could really love me up some grilled cheese!!

But the biggest "me too" of your list is the ocean. I can't believe I didn't put that on my list!

I've tried the green tomatoes in the brown paper bag thing, too. Can't remember if it worked.

I love that ad too. Laughter is the only thing that keeps me sane sometimes so I try to incorporate as much of it as I can into my life. :)

With ya on The Ocean.

What a great list! I love wedding cake myself and coffee... Where's coffee on your list?? ;)

Hope you have a great weekend.

I'm with most everyone else here. mmmmmm....grilled cheese.......

I love that post. A few of my favorite things... well I share the love of grilled cheese with you and of course mac and cheese. I love warmth, tea, ice cream, a good book (my latest was Shutter Island by Dennis Lehane), fleece and napping in the rain.

p.s that cake looks gorgeous
p.p.s. i had the most kick a$$ grilled cheese and fried green tomato sandwich during my trip to Lousiana.....how good!

Grilled cheese is one of my faves too!

Ditto on the ocean, the tomatoes, and the grilled cheese. Also love cherry blossoms, chocolate, books (of course!), snow...I could go on and on. :)
That ad is great!

Why have I never thought of grilled cheese with bacon and tomato? I am drooling just thinking about it! Pure and utter genius!

I love that commercial. I laugh every time i see it.

This is a great list. Believe it or not, I've never tried grilled cheese with tomato and bacon. That sounds divine! Very cool cake with the beach scene.That commercial is GREAT. I've never seen it before. Thanks so much for coming by my blog today! This has been fun. Oh and Alan Rickman looks quite hot in Mrs. G's pic.

Raindrops on roses, whiskers on kittens...oh no, wait, those are some of Julie Andrew's favorite things! You named some of mine, including the ocean, and comfort food, and things that make me laugh.

Grilled cheese with tomato & bacon, mmmm, especially if it's from Friendly's, with the pickle on the side, and followed by a Reeses' Pieces Sundae! Thanks for your comment, too!

How come,
people diversed by the pond and age, do seems to have the same preferences? *cause of our commom climate?

We still have tomatoes - we brought the plants inside in our winterhome, when we moved from our summerparadise. Even the pepper (paprika) is red and ready to be eaten...

yeah yeah - now it's another working week ahead. And another. Then we will have 2 weeks vacation. In Argentina.

I just have to tell you that I LOVE your photos! You have quite the eye. Also, I am fond of Snape, too. I knew all along that he was a good guy.

Grilled Cheese....yum.
Wait---Wait just a minute! Look closely, now....YES! On the right half of the sandwich--RIGHT THERE! Yes! I distinctly see an angel blowing a horn to the upper right corner! Yes! EBay DEMANDS that you put that angelic cheese sandwich up for sale.
Do I hear an opening bid of $375?
Geeez, and I can say I knew you when...
