1. I love 4th of July food! I made Brats, Caribbean potato salad, avocado salad, and a dutch apple pie. Yummy!!!
2. Even though there was a brief storm, I got a chance to lay out and catch a few rays after being cooped up sick for a week.
3. From the balcony of the apartment, we were able to see all the fireworks in downtown. it was about as up close and personal as you could get. They were so beautiful!
"Shiawase", (pronounced as SHE-AH-WAH-SAY) in Japanese means "Happiness". After my divorce a year ago, I fell into severe depression from a broken heart. I created this blog to help me focus on the positives aspects in my life. Inspired by my close friend "The Tyger" and Clare's "Three Beautiful Things" blog, I will try and write three positives that happen in my life.
