these are a few of my favorite things
Posted: September 29, 2010 at 6:36 pmComputer glitches plagued my day, including a lazy Google Reader not publishing a post I really enjoyed writing. Today was also pretty hectic overall with lots to do, so I decided that tonight I need to just focus on a few of my favorite things. I planned on doing one of the Readerโs Requests I received, but my brain feels too fried. Still let me know if you have a topic you want me to post about though. And please check out todayโs 30 Days post. Then look for a wrap-up post to tie it all together tomorrow and finish out the month. ๐
My Favorite Place: Cuddled in Peterโs arms. Neither of us wanted to get out of bed this morning because we felt so cozy snuggled up together. It feels like home to me and I could stay there forever.
My Favorite Breakfast: Oats. I donโt think I can ever get sick of them. I do switch it up from time to time, but always come crawling back to the oats, begging for forgiveness for straying.
My Favorite Workout: Typically this would be lifting weights since I love feeling strong and seeing the changes it brings to my body. Right now, though, spin wins! I love how I still feel like I can get a good workout and not have to adapt things too much because of my body.
My Favorite Candy: Do I really have to tell you??
My Favorite Sound: Little Mโs voice. I love hearing her read stories to herself. Apparently she does too because she occupies herself that way a large chunk of the day. And itโs always โno mommyโ when I try to read to her. Her singing is pretty precious too.
My Favorite Thing About Blogging: Um, there are too many to count but I have to say the supportive community and all your comments, emails, tweets, etc. Which is why now I hope to pay it forward and pass along the support by asking you all to show some love to my good friend Heather. It was her birthday yesterday and it included some sad news. Show her some love and then send her family some prayers. Love you, Heather!!!!
My Favorite Food: Pizza. You can have it so many ways and it can be relatively healthy too with the right choice of toppings, crust, etc. We have a Groupon for a yummy pizza place we need to use up this weekend. My heart swells with love. Or, more aptly put. my mouth swells with drool.
My Favorite Day of the Week: Saturday. Itโs a family day of fun typically. The next few weeks will be especially fantastic with corn mazes, pumpkin patches, county fairs, Mโs birthday party, and so much more. Ohโฆand the pizza of course.
My Favorite TV Show: Glee! Which I will be watching tonight.
My Favorite Article of Clothing: As much as I wear yoga pants and tank tops, nothing compares to jeans. I have a slight obsession. This stack is my biggest motivation to get back to my pre-competition-prep-screwed-my-body-must-gain-to-conceive weight. That is in fact the technical term. ๐
My Favorite Thing About Pregnancy: Feeling the little man move. He likes to thump around in there. Not always comfortable, but always endearing.
My Favorite Favorite: All of those passions I mentioned earlier. They really do make life good.
Keep the trend goingโฆWhatโs one of your favorite things? Any of the above or something else you come up with. ๐

Favorite Candy: Skittles! Sure, they make EVERYTHING you eat afterwards taste like ‘the rainbow’ but they’re delicious.
I’m kind of obsessed with ballet slippers, I wear them everyday to work and they have become an obsession. I also love workout dvds, but I don’t buy that many of them.
I have a slight obsession with workout DVDs too. I own so many and want to add more. I do used them a lot after the baby though.
Candy corn is the best candy ever and I can totally relate to your love of jeans. I have about 40 pairs. Whoops! Haha =)
I love candy corn!! I’ve restrained from buying them so far ๐
I can never restrain. I don’t have that sort of will power. LOL At least I do make each bag I buy last though.
My two favorite things are my two cute kitties!
Love this post, Tina!! ๐ Your life is filled with your favorite things…so amazing!
Oh candy corn – I’ve yet to bust it out this season. But it’s so darn addictive!
Some of my favorite things: taking a walk with my husband and Niko in the evening. The mood of my clients change from grumpy and stressed to inspired and proud after one of our sessions. Niko cuddling up to me any time I sit down. The feeling after a hard run.
Your life is filled with your favorite things too. Such a good feeling huh?
although I will say it will be nice when my favorite jeans can fit into my life again too. ๐
I love candy corn pumpkins too….
your description of cuddling with your husband made me smile. I love that feeling. I’ll never forget when Aaron told me that he never really liked to cuddle when falling asleep before he met me, but we were just the right size for each other and now he liked it more than falling asleep alone.
I love reading “favorites” posts! My favorite place in the world is also in my bf’s arms <3 My favorite workout nowadays is running! I never thought I'd actually pick it as a favorite but I'm getting addicted to it ๐
Awww, I love this! You are so positive, I can always count on your posts to make me feel better.
I try! Although we all know I do have my days too. Luckily they are pretty few and far between.
Pizza! See, I knew we were friends for a reason ๐ Love lifting weights and working out too. And I hear you on a hectic day. And I’ve had major internet issues at home this week. I just might blame it all ont he cooler weather. Hope you have a good evening sweetie (and get plenty of sleep).
My grandma always saved a bag of candy corn from Halloween and would set one at each place setting on Thanksgiving. She said if you ate that piece you would have good luck all year long!
That’s a tradition I can follow! ๐
I seriously love traditions and am really getting into starting some up for our little family.
Some of my favorite things are: my two sweet girls (I just love hearing their voices), oats, pumpkin, chocolate, salty foods, hanging out with my best girlfriends…I could go on and on…lol
Live is full of great things!
My boys laughter! All three of them especially when they are all three doing something together!
It is such a wonderful sound, huh? So innocent sounding. Although sometimes the laughter comes at the not so innocent times. LOL
Pizza! With my husband and dog preferably.
Some of my favorite things: long drives in the country, church picnics, and The Office ๐

i loved reading about some of your favorite things and learning more about you! that was fun. saturday is my favorite, too, because i get to wake up late and stay up late ๐
I share many of your favorite things, especially oatmeal, pizza and Glee ๐ At the moment, my favorite workout is yoga. It leaves me feeling strong, refreshed and re-energized.
But one of my absolute favorite things right now is when I’m holding my little guy and he puts his head on my shoulder. He snuggles up and his head fits perfectly up against my shoulder, neck and head… it gets me every time ๐
Oh fun! I, too, love cuddling and candy corn. My other favorite things are: swimming, cuddling some more, the smell of laundry, and anything to do with my friends. I wish I could be around my friends ALL the time!
