Random Things That I Love

We all love the typical things...friends, family....but today I wanted to talk about the totally random, out of nowhere things that I love:

1- Steel Drums

The sound is amazing, and every time I hear them, I feel like I'm on a tropical island somewhere.

The best steel drum band I heard was in Jamaica--they were INCREDIBLE...the music was awesome but they did all kinds of crazy dance moves, too. Love me some steel drums!

2- Guacamole

{via} ok...not how I eat it...at least not yet....:)

There's nothing better than guacamole. The restaurant near us makes some KILLER guac. When my bestie Genna was in town a while ago, we ate a big old bowl of it with chips...and that was our meal. And we were both TOTALLY ok with it :)

Guac is the bee's knees!

3-Puppy wiggles

Walking in the door after a long day at work to a pup who is SO excited to see you that he just about wiggles himself off of the couch....it's one of the best things ever.

4-Sliding into a pool on a super hot day

{via} Ok...not quiiiiite like this...but you get the idea :)

There's nothing more refreshing on a hot day than getting into a cool pool.

5-Hearing a song that was your 'jam' from back in the day on the radio in the car

It's like someone gifted you a little treat on your car ride. And, if you're like me, you end up car-dancing for the song's entirety, no matter who is looking :)

6-The smell of a burning candle, especially apple cinnamon scents
Apple cinnamon might be one of my favorite smells of all time. Burning a candle that smells like this is soooo yummy. It also makes me hungry for apple pie, but that's neither here nor there.

7-Cotton Candy

{via} Ok...not in reverse...lol

Not something that I have often...in fact, I can't tell you the last time that I had cotton candy. But, I dare you to have some cotton candy and NOT feel like a kid again :)

8-The smell of  new magazines
Some magazines or catalogs just have a smell to them, and I love it. Its that fresh/crisp smell. Mmm, so random, but I love it.

9-Swatting a fly that's been flying around, driving you mad

{via}

I don't think I need to explain this one....it's just gratifying, especially after that little guy flew around making you lose your marbles.

10-Curling up and reading inside, when it's raining outside

{via}

Self explanatory, right? It's just so relaxing and peaceful. That much easier to get lost in a good book.

What are some random things that YOU love?
