Simple Pleasures

There is just something to be said for simple pleasures they really can lift your mood. Wednesday are usually so hectic for me because of my dance schedule and I usually can't wait for them to be over.  However, today I have tapped into my reservoir of simple pleasures Wednesday doesn't seem so bad.  (Haha although I might change my mind after teaching 3 more hours of dance!)

1.  Wednesday is laundry day which usually equals me setting my oven timer to try to guesstimate when the loads will be finished.  Usually my calculations are incorrect and I end up waiting in the basement for like 5 minutes for the load to finish because I am too lazy to go back upstairs only to come back down in 5 minutes.  In Logan I was cursed blessed to have my washer and dryer in my kitchen so I always knew the minute the cycle was complete so I never had to really figure this out.  However, last week I learned a wonderful trick from my amazing neighbor and visiting teacher (thanks Dani!).  Ready to hear it?  Are you sure?  I mean this is going to blow your mind.  Simply open the door to your laundry chute if you can't hear the washer/dryer then your clothes are all ready for you.  Brilliant right?!?!

2.  Fruit Bar Popsicles.  I love these and on a plus side they have been on sale at Woodman's for the past two weeks.  If you are looking to try them I would highly recommend Pomegranate and Lime or Strawberry if you want one with actual fruit inside it.  So enjoy the fact that the weather is actually warm enough for popsicles.  

3.  Fried Rice.  I seriously could live off this stuff.  I made it for dinner on Saturday but we finished it by Monday so I had to make some more today for lunch because it just sounded so good.  If you are as addicted to fried rice as I am and would like to try my recipe just let me know and I'll gladly share it with you so you can enjoy the simple pleasure of fried rice too!

Now go out there and find your own simple pleasures so you can enjoy your hectic days too!
