Raindrops on Roses

‘And whiskers on kittens,
Bright copper kettles and warm woollen mittens,
Brown paper packages tied up with string
These are few of my favourite things’

Don’t ask me why, but I have this song stuck in my head. So I thought it would be a good time to share some of my favourite things with you.

Smell: Homemade cakes baking

Sounds: Babies giggles, it’s a sure fire why to put a smile on my face.

Movies: I love Chick flicks and my all time favourite is Dirty Dancing. I love everything about the film. The songs, the dances, the lines, the actors. Also like pretty much everything with Johnny Depp in.

Tv Shows: Supernatural is probably the only show that I have seen every episode and would watch them all again. You can’t beat a bit of Friends though, I will never tire of that show. Other American comedy like Will and Grace and Two and a half men.

Music: Anyone who knows me, knows I have a big weakness for Westlife. A few other faves are snow patrol, Pink and Bon Jovi.

Places: As corny as this will sound, anywhere that I’m with my son. Also love Ireland so much, have done ever since I was a small child. Edinburgh is a beautiful city and I hope to be able to go there again one day.

Books: Pride and Prejudice. Books that I have read recently that I loved are by Cecelia Ahern... The Gift and The book of tomorrow.

Things to do: Go to concerts, shopping, watching movies and I like to do these things with all my loved ones. I love to write and I love to read, which you have probably already grasped from my previous posts.

Anyway they are just a few of my favourite things, and honestly the song is right. When I am feeling down, thinking of my favourite things helps to make me feel better.
