Want to reduce a 7-year-old to a mass of hysterical giggles? Show him this sign.
Then show him again.
*giggle*
(It’s a sign for speed bumps.)

Way too much fun. This hair salon is called Hairy Mary.

A week or so ago, when I mentioned that it was time to start packing, Marie (of The Snake Charmers) said, “Pack me!” So I did. Here she at the base of Gjendemfjellet. Where do you want to go next, Marie? ;)

Magpie Musing makes me think. She also makes me happy. She’s inspired me (again), this time to think about what makes me happy. Here’s a list.
- Books
“Nothing is more human than a book.” ~ Marilynne Robinson, The Paris Review, Issue 186, Fall 2008.
- Laughter
- Hugs your body fits right into
- Lists — making them, crossing them off
- Brilliant summer greens
- Blooming azaleas
- Angel-food cake
- Making a good meal then sitting down to eat it with people I love (and some wine, of course)
- Coffee
- The orange sky that makes my kids say, “Mommy, that’s such a beautiful sunset! I bet you wish you had your camera.” (Yep.)
- Music, music, music ~ How can you listen to any of these songs and not at least smile? Say Hey (I Love You), Michael Franti; Love Serenade, The Waifs; Sweet Potato Pie, James Taylor; How I do math: Una mas cervesa + Billy Bacon & the Forbidden Pigs + the Zoo Bar = One Mighty Tasty Tex-Mex Bluesbilly Taco
