five little things that made my week.
1. this bright yellow mum.
{because even though i knocked it right off its stem, it’s doing a lovely job brightening up our bathroom}.
2. these bracelets.
{because they’re the reminders of a surprise night i planned for james. tickets to see greg brown. i’m still proud i managed to keep it a secret}.
3. this white bowl.
{because it’s one of four newbies. nice and deep and perfect for autumn soups}.
4. this paint brush.
{because not only did james use it to give a facelift to our entryway, he also cleaned it. and managed, mostly, to keep paint off the handle}.
5. these cookies. and the coffee too.
{because james made them, and forced me to close my laptop lid just for a minute so i could enjoy them}.

Oh, that last image is so delightful! Little things that made my week was Harney and Son's Hot Cinnamon Spice tea (delight!) and a whole wheat cinnamon bun from Big Sky Bakery in Portland, ME. Heaven!
God I love all of these more than I can express. Your blog brings me such a sense of peace and contentment.
what a splendid relationship you must have… surprises, helping out around the house, COOKIES! delightful 🙂
Love that! Nothing like a solid and sweet give and take! Glad you both take time to smell the roses with each other. 🙂

I simply love that yellow flower. So simple and happy. Perfect for a Friday!
Greg Brown tickets = best surprise ever! Love him.
All five are wonderful, And your scored Greg Brown tickets (I actually am a fan too). James did an awesome job on the paint brush cleanup. My husband is a stickler for clean brushes ~ I'm not as careful as he wishes.
Have a great weekend. Cheers~
Stems are overrated…
white bowls, plates, etc. are th ebest for food. everything looks so pretty in them.
you two are such a loving/thoughtful couple!
Sounds like James is earning some major credits this week!! I love this round-up.
Have a great weekend Erin. I think my first Spanish hot chocolate of the season (with a churro on the side) made my entire week!
i do love that yellow mum and good for stopping to enjoy your cookie – good guy, james! enjoy your weekend!
I love the flower in the bowl, I might have to try that for my room!
i am such a dork about saving those paper wristbands from kick ass concerts. great list!

a good soup bowl is very VERY important. my favorites are sky blue and white ones from anthropologie. even just eating cereal out of them makes my morning a little nicer 🙂
