:: happiness is… a lovely way to start the week with a positive reflection of what brings happiness to you right now. positive thinking on a monday morning ~ there’s no better way to start the week. i hope you will join me.

Well Hello my friends on this rough Monday morning ;) If you just enjoyed a March or Spring break – I think we can all agree it’s a little ‘rough’ to carry on with this Monday, right?  So for this reason…. I’m diving deep inside to search out some ‘happiness’…. but secretly wishing we still had just one more day of a lazy day starting with a sleep-in morning…..

Oh, let’s shake off these thoughts, now shall we? Back to reality. Back to our Monday. Let’s hope it’s a good one ;)

Here’s what’s making me happy right now…

true happiness really lately is our weather
so warm and sunny in march. hello is it really march?
we’ve had a great week and a fun weekend,
who can complain….
we went to a maple syrup festival yesterday
this was the first time I learned about sap and maples and the whole process,
sorry, I’m very ‘new’ to lots and kind of discovering things through being a mom or blogging – somehow, these two are the stepping stones to new knowledge ;)
it was good times seeing my whole family and having a great dinner at my sister’s impromptu
my sweet nephew is starting to use his words and there’s a lot of ‘i wuv youuu’s’ coming from him, which is true Happiness, right there in that moment when his big little eyes look up at you
i made a great st. patty’s lunch which I will share with you tomorrow, yummm
right now, I’m enjoying the quiet house
kind of enjoying that the week will get it’s own rhythm again
one that we’re used to and create a certain ‘system’ that keeps our minds and bodies busy
i’m hearing the dehydrator buzzing in the kitchen, making yummy crispy apple slices
i’m sipping my green tea with fresh ginger
i’m still in pyjamas…..
almost ready for the day
i can see the sun is also having a lazy day
as it’s just softly peeking its head out through the bare trees
i think it will be a ‘happy’ day after all
as soon as I try to shake off this dreadful arson news of our beautiful playground in TO ;(

leaving you with a lovely song… (I always try to entertain you in more than one way, don’t i?) it’s by  Royksopp – a Swedish beautiful talent…. enjoy ‘What else is there?’ (sorry it’s not a very happy song with a capital C – but really beautiful)

Happy Monday!

What’s making you happy right now?

ps. my apologies if my site is not opening for you… apparently there’s been some technical difficulties – I hate technology sometimes – but if it wasn’t thanks to technology ‘we’ wouldn’t be here ;D xo Ella

Come back tomorrow for a belated St. Patty’s feast! A feast I tell you. Filled with 3 original vegan recipes – wheat-free too! See you then ;)
