I didn't know what to title this post so I googled synonyms for HAPPY.
I chose Tickled Pink because that is how I felt about all the little "happies" I photographed yesterday in order to write this post.
I spotted my first spring rose in the garden and had to bring it into the house to enjoy watching it open.
I am definitely "tickled pink" with my new computer which is thinner, lighter and so much faster than my 5 year old "slow poke".
Flowers blooming
all over the yard
and filling pitchers in the house definitely make me happy.
I couldn't pass up the gorgeous daffodils at the grocery store.
Having old friends over for dinner and creating a pleasing table setting was a definite "happy".
These little black and white bowls tickled my fancy.
My plan to set the table with white plates didn't work out because I only had two red bowls.
So, I was excited when I found little black and white bowls at TJ Maxx.
Little wire baskets served as place cards
I had red napkins and fortunately I hoard fabric because I found enough black fabric (left over from a curtain I made for my sister's bathroom ) to make napkins.
I was happy with the results of the table, but even happier that J and D have found one another.
J lost her son to cancer, D lost his wife to cancer and Match.com recently brought together two people we have known for years.
You may look at this photo and ask how I could use the blog title Tickled Pink,
but a new computer, flowers, setting the table and our guests excited me and brought me joy.
What has Tickled you Pink lately?
