... These are a few of my favourite things!
1) Baking. I haven't done much of this recently since when you bake something, someone needs to eat it and I no longer have roommates or people on my floor to eat what I make. Today I have already baked two batches of bread and I'm starting some biscotti and it is only 10:30 am!
2) Christmas. It is almost here! Advent at much church this year has been great and I am loving all the snow and lights and music. Last weekend at my small group Christmas party we ate good food, sang carols and then listened to a David and Marley Christmas story from Stewart McLean. Also, Christmas gives me an excuse to do lots of baking!
3) Checking things off my 'To Do' list. Sometimes I put things on my list I have already done, just so I can check them off. Today I didn't need to cheat as the list is long enough all by itself. In addition to baking I am doing Christmas cards, finishing a project for work (yes, in all of this I am still doing my job...)and I need to sharpen my skates and I am meeting a friend for 'coffee' over my lunch break.
4) Fridays. This doesn't really need any explanation. Fridays mark the end of the work week and the beginning of the weekend. I had a really good week, got lots of work done, spent time with friends and didn't get stranded anywhere or have any car problems. This weekend is going to be super busy with three Christmas parties, a family reunion and my regular weekend things like cleaning the house and going to the market.
5) The market. I go to the Kitchener Farmer's Market almost every weekend. It is like the St Jacob's market only smaller and there aren't as many touristy things. I can be in and out with all my fresh produce, meat and bread needs for the week met in about 30-45 minutes. I buy local, organic when possible and it is a fun place.
