It seems to be a theme for me for many years or maybe I was just brought up that way. I don't know but I sure do appreciate life this way.
I think these little mice have found a way to do it. Finding joy.
The best time to be happy is now. It's the little things in life; a bowl of popcorn, a good book or a movie, an interesting cloud formation, raindrops or snowflakes on the window.
Love this little poem.
Poppin' Fun with Popcorn
Pop, pop, pop, the kernels dance,
In a hot, sizzling, popping trance,
A burst of joy with every pop,
A tasty treat that's hard to stop.
From a humble seed, a fluffy delight,
Golden and crispy, a simple sight,
Buttery, salty, or sweet and glazed,
A snack that's loved, in all its ways.
In a bowl at movies, or by the fire,
A crunchy snack, to never tire,
Shared with friends, or savored alone,
Popcorn's magic, fully shown.
A burst of flavor, a burst of sound,
A treat that's truly world-renowned,
So let's celebrate, with kernels spun,
Popcorn, a snack that's always fun!

| Love the poem and mice. Popcorn is one of our favorites. Simple and inexpensive. Dad grew it one year and we kids gave ourselves blisters rubbing the dry kernals off the cob. |

| I'd like to get a bit more simplified. We are trying to pare down somewhat - We love antique and thrift shops, but often find things we like but don't really need - and we get some. Not good. LOL! |
