Other peanut butter lovers. My (peanut butter) cup runneth over.
I'm a super-chunky fan. I like to crunch.

A good workout makes me happy. I'll walk around drenched in sweat for a while just to revel in it.

Singing in the shower.

The love of family and friends, but most especially teenage grandchildren. It's just wonderful when they think you're cool, or at least they make a convincing pretense of it.

Going fast.

Compliments, of course.

Early morning and sunrise after a good night's sleep.

Tasting the cooking and telling right off that I did it right this time.
Creamy for me.
But the going fast--I own that.

120 mph in my latest car, then slowing so I wouldn't go to jail if someone was timing.
120 mph on the latest motorcycle, then slowing so I wouldn't go to jail if someone was timing.
Okay, so I did it on the motorcycle twice. Sssshhh. Don't tell Grandma.

I did over 150 on a NASCAR track in an honest-to-goodness NASCAR car. It was
so
much
fun

(This is the car I drove. In staying true to the thread, it was a moment of Good Times.)

Lovely thread. And I agree with Blunt and everyone else about this place. It's like slipping on a favourite pair of slippers and sitting by the fire. Genuine warmth. Asides from that what else makes me happy is...... Driving the Mustang with the roof down. Hot summer evenings, when on holiday. When you've been out in the sun, had a shower, gone out for something to eat and you are still warm and you know that sun is going to shine again tomorrow. And meat. Bloody steaks. Makes me very happy :)

Hugging my kids (20 YO is a special treat--he's never been a hugger, so when he allows it.... :D)
Opening a new book
re-reading an old favorite
puttering in my garden
finding new music to love
when I get in the writing groove, and I know a sentence or passage is EXACTLY RIGHT--gives me chills
Creme brulee
Coffee
puppy breath
baby necks
snuggling on my old wicker loveseat with Horsedog, tea, and a down blanket, listening to the rain on the metal roof of the deck
dinnertime--great food, interesting conversation with my love and our kids
Mister Rogers
Bill Nye the Science Guy (Science RULES)
squelching through puddles; crunching in leaves
fresh spring peas
prayer like a conversation
friends, old and new :)
being alive :)

Oh, I run too!
I'm slower than a herd of turtles stampeding through peanut butter, but I run.....

and if you see me running, you better run too, because something is chasing me, and it isn't Johnny Depp ;;D

I like being not at work. Reading posts on this board when I'm not at work is very enjoyable. I like knowing there are other people who think a kind word to another member or a goofy post makes a the day a bit better.
My first thought about things I like: The day off. Next thing, thunderstorms, then a healthy rose bush, watching the birds at the feeders, especially the bluebirds.

As Blunthead and everyone else said. This is the place I like best, this is my good time. If I have a bad day I log in here and read some posts and
my bad day become a good day, thanks for that my friends. Believe it or not, but if something special have happened some days or in my life, I always
tell it to you first before I tell it to my parents. This is the best and most caring site ever. And of course let us not forget Mr King without him there
wouldn't be any site like this. A big thanks to Ms Mod and all other moderators too.
