Today’s post is devoted to things I’m grateful for; after all, November is the month of Gratitude right? In addition to these things, I am grateful for Jen for hosting quick takes!

*** 1 ***

Fat-Free Greek Yogurt.

It’s a protein power-house, has no (or low) fat, and less carbs than regular yogurt. Since strawberries aren’t really in season right now, I eat the yogurt with apples, pears, grapes, or raisins usually.  It also keeps me full for a long time. Success!

My washer and dryer. I’m pretty sure I don’t need to explain this. Just show you the alternative:

and

I rest my case. Praise the Lord and pass the dryers sheets!

Books. I love books. They are my friends.

Libraries. Places where free book shopping happens. What could be better?

*** 4 ***

My black velour track suit. Yes, call me J-Lo if you must. But it’s comfortable on my 3rd trimester body, and lets me look pretty put together when I pair it with a cute shirt or scarf, and nice flats. Don’t judge.

*** 5 ***

Clean drinking water in three rooms of my house. This fact alone places me in about the most privileged 10% of the world’s population. I only have to take ten steps to get clean water.

*** 6 ***

My wonderful, amazing husband, Atticus.

I love him.

The dog is in the picture is pretty cool too.

Last, but certainly not least, the Internets. Without which, none of this would be possible.

 

What are you grateful for?
