happiness is...

• an impromptu visit to the Vancouver Aquarium yesterday with my boys
• sharing a hot-dog and watching the beluga whales at lunch-time
• chocolate chip banana muffins
• trying a new recipe tonight - African pineapple peanut stew, from the Moosewood At Home Cookbook.  (will be serving over couscous)
• Jamie's Food Revolution  (I love this man - and on an aside note:  I love the names of his kiddies too!)
• meeting a fresh baby last night!
• sleeping in deliciously late this morning (almost 9am!  a serious luxury around these parts)
• getting a chance to watch Dear Genevieve last night and dreaming of her making over our kitchen!! 
• walking to the mailbox with my boys and finding this dress from Anthropologie waiting for me!!!  Bonus:  it fits really well and I love it!!  I can see me getting a ton of wear out of it!
