Little things

It's amazing how some folks get all excited about the little things. This may not be much of anything to another person but I gasped when I saw these. I have had my share of salt and pepper mills but nothing of this magnitude. The set we have now just doesn't do it for me. These are like towers. I was not out looking for these. In fact, I didn't even go in the aisle that would house something of this sort. They were up front to the side at the cashier. Someone must have changed their mind. Their lost is my gain. It's complete with sea salt in one and a peppercorn medley in the other. This is over a foot tall. I'm thinking that with this amount I will be old and gray when it's time to refill it. I am going to have to buy a couple of bottles of the medley just to refill it. We aren't routine salt users. I may use it when making eggs but that pretty much is it.

From the time I got my first apartment, I have become a home shopper. You know, it went from me going out to buy clothes, shoes to now buying pieces for my home. It's the smallest thing that comforts me. Anything that is related to the kitchen or cooking or entertaining I enjoy buying. Other little things that make me happy is when you go to Popeye's and order a 5 piece chicken strip and they give you 6 or even 7 pieces. Or when you go to Coldstone Creamery and order a Like It and they give you a Love It just because the girl scooped up too much ice cream. How about when you hubby comes home with gourmet jelly beans because he know it's your favorite. Your coworker brings in extra Jamaican food because you kill to have it. Wow I just realized that all those little things were edible items. Hmmm that makes me sound greedy. LOL. Oh well. I am a simple girl who don't need much from another person. The next encounter you have with the little things, just smile and remember how happy it made you.
