In no particular order:
- Finishing a project. Especially a craft project that has been sitting around your home for a while, and you’ve been looking forward to seeing what it will be when it’s done
- Reading a book so good that you forget you’re reading. Similarly, watching a movie or TV show so good that you forget you’re watching
- Soft linen
- Laughing to the point where you’re out of breath and your stomach hurts
- A sunrise you woke up for (as opposed to the kind you see because you pulled an all-nighter)
- A full – but not uncomfortably full – stomach
- Afternoon naps that don’t overstay their welcome
- The first sip of caffeine in the morning
- Wearing your favourite clothes; the ones that spark the most joy
- Traveling – specifically, the feeling of arriving at your destination, stepping off the plane, and knowing that you’re somewhere new
- Brightly-coloured sunsets
- Potatoes
- Returning to a beloved fictional universe after a long time
- Those bungalow hotels over water in the Maldives or Fiji, where the water so clear you can see the sand beneath
- Cuddling with pets. Insert obligatory pic of Edmund serving model:

PS – I love writing and I love eating! If you want to help with the latter (and ONLY if you want) you can maybe buy me a coffee?
