Remember the big poster I made out of 200 of my favourite Instagram photos? I look at it every day and still love it to smithereens. I find something new in it all of the time. It’s a permanent reminder of the ordinary beauty around us. I guess that’s ultimately what my Instagram account is all about, and in a sense, this blog too.

These are a few things that made me happy this week:
Sleeping dogs. They are like miniature radiators. To have one curled up on the couch next to you is a gift unlike any other:
Sunsets. Don’t they just make you happy to be alive to see them?
Cultural artifacts. These three photos are from the Empress of Ireland, an exhibit that’s at the Museum of History (a.k.a The Civ) right now. Aren’t we lucky to have such great storytelling that is so easily accessible? History comes alive here.
Greenery. My mom gave me this poinsettia two Christmases ago and – AGAINST ALL ODDS – it’s still alive, and actually doing well. It’s a very pretty little splash of colour on our windowsill.
Happy Friday!
