Hi all! 

On May 23rd, I turned 29 years old, which got me thinking about my joy list. You know, the little things in life that bring me happiness. They are so simple, yet so rewarding. This is similar to 100 Things I Am Grateful For… but a lot more specific. Without further ado, let’s get into it! 

Putting a big spoonful of crunchy peanut butter on my oats every morning. 

Drinking spiced apple and cinnamon tea when it’s cold. Bonus points when I’m using a cute mug!

Putting on my fluffy, warm dressing gown.

Reading a book in bed, as it rains outside. 

Discovering a new vegan lunch place (see below). 

Giving my husband a big hug. 

Feeling our baby kick inside me (this is the best feeling in the whole world)!

Autumn leaves (oranges, reds, yellows)!

Feeling super clean after a hot shower. 

Writing in my many, many journals on a daily basis. 

Watching reruns of The Gilmore Girls. 

– Listening to Betty Who on a walk or a drive. 

Picking out a new book to read on my mini bookshelf. 

Wearing winter clothes (scarves, beanies, boots etc). 

Talking to my mum on the phone. 

Looking at old photos. 

Lemon infused water. 

When my favourite YouTubers put up a new video to watch.

Posting twice a week. 

Ticking things off my to-do list. 

Gazing at the stars. 

Burning candles that smell amazing. 

Wandering through bookstores and libraries. 

Cooking my yummy ‘vegan’ sausage casserole (click here). 

Thinking about my unborn daughter. 

Singing Disney songs. 

Smiles from strangers. 

Seeing people in love. 

Reading dates with my husband. 

Working on my book. 

Catching up with family and friends. 

The sun on the back of my neck. 

Flowers in bloom (minus the bees)! 

Freshly laundered sheets. 

I hope you enjoyed reading all the things that bring me joy. There are a million more but these are the ones that spring to mind. I encourage you to write your own. It will remind you of what truly matters in life.

Peace & Love xoxo
