Okay, aside from a little bit of Oooh Aaah Paul McGrath, if you know what I mean (I realise that my foreign readers won’t get the embarrassing rhyming reference to getting jiggy with it), here’s a contented-sigh-inducing list of things that make me go Aahhhh….
That first slug of tea after a long day The climax of a favourite tune
"Life is too short to drink from an ugly cup." jAne at Tickleberry Farm
The first holiday glimpse of the ocean Writing something beautiful
Surrendering my weight into a comfortable bed
Sliding into a hot bubble bath The tightest of bear hugs
Reading the first page of a novel and knowing that this book is going to rock
Taking time out in nature The sound of rain beating off a tin roof
*Snow Magic by TORI STEFFEN
WAKING UP TO AN INCREDIBLE SNOW SCENE Swimming solo
The sky in all its forms and shades and PaTteRn$
Beauty… from nature to a photograph to a piece of music to a particularly pleasing male form…
Freewheeling after cycling up a steep incline
Sunshine on my skin Newly changed bedclothes
The scent of yellow furze and freshly cut grass
The blast of hot air as I step off the plane in an exciting foreign location
Lighting a candle just because…
The first gasp of breath after an extraordinary belly laugh
Now, do fill me in on some of the things that make you go Aahhhh…
