and these are a few of my Favorite Things!

Hmm...another fun blogging party hosted at The Nester .....

made me start thinking about the things that I love. The idea for the party is to come up with favorite things under $30. 

I decided to not go so literal with my list. Any of these things you could give as a gift...but I like to think of this list as the Gift of Happiness!  The beautiful thing about this kind of list is that it keeps on giving with things that warm your heart and senses all year long! What would be on your list?  Here are just a few special "somethings" that I really enjoy....
