Things I Love, and You Should Too.

These are a few of my favorite things!
Aside from the obvious things, like my cats, my family & my boyfriend. Aside from the typical(chocolate, ice cream, vacation time, sleeping in) these are some of the things I love.

1)Coming home or waking up to a clean house. It just puts my whole world back in happyville.
2)Warm from the oven bread. Any kind will do; french, sourdough, banana, zuchinni.
3)Berries fresh from the farmers market.
4)Greek yohgurt, it's an awesome substitute for sour cream and other dense creamy things in recipes.
5)Agave nectar, it's awesome in place of sugar or simple syrup.
6)Epsom salts. Old fashioned I know, but they make my bath into a home spa!
7)Homemade sugar scrub. So cheap, so easy, SO indulgent!
8)My Ninja blender. This thing makes easy work of so many things, from smoothies & margaritas to salsa and more.
9)Mizythra cheese. If you happen to have an Old Spahgetti Factory nearby, lucky you! You can have Spahgetti a la Homer (the only place I know that makes it) but mizythra with spahgetti in browned butter is only one way to indulge in this fabulous cheese. It is nutty and salty and a little goes a long way in pasta, salads and more! Use it the same way you would fresh parmesan.
10)Butter lettuce, otherwise known as boston bibb lettuce. More nutritious than iceberg, sweeter and more tender than romain, I love this lettuce in everything from salads to sandwhiches!

Those are ten off the top of my head for now, I'll add more in another entry.
