These are a few of my favourite things.

This year I’m taking part in the Blogging Secret Santa that @thestilettomum (http://thestilettomum.wordpress.com/2012/10/17/blogger-secret-santa-61-and-counting/) is organising. You can take part too, even if you don’t blog. Take a look.

I hear we’re all supposed to do a post on our favourite things or the things we like, and now I can’t get this song out of my head. It’s my pleasure…

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens,
bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens,
brown paper packages tied up with strings,
these are a few of my favorite things.

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels,
door bells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles.
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings.
these are a few of my favorite things.

Girls in a white dresses with a blue satin sashes,
snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes,
silver white winters that melt into springs,
these are a few of my favorite things.

When the dog bites, when the bee stings,
when I'm feeling sad,
I simply remember my favorite things,
and then I don't feel so bad.

Now that I’ve got that out of my system, things I like. Being a mom of three I hardly ever get a chance to spoil myself or a free minute to myself. When I do, it’s usually in the bath where I get a half hour of peace and quiet. I like bubbles, lovely smelling bubbles, bath oils, candles, chocolate and champagne with strawberries. All things that help you unwind and relax, and take a break from the kids.
