happy place, happy space: Christmas+Train

• 

Running down Orchard Road, I had to stop to take a closer look at this charming Christmas display outside Wisma Atria. I have a soft spot for toy trains; all that’s missing is smoke & a whistle.

It has been a few weeks now that I have been reading & collating Your Smiles, Small Pleasures & Gratitude – posts that inspire & encourage me in this Happy Place, Happy Space. I hope having them in one place makes it easier for you to find when you need a Virtual Hug or Smile.

Small Pleasures: rain run, good read & birthday cake

Running in the rain (drizzle preferred over torrential downpour) always brings a smile to my face.

I am so delighted that there is a new generation of non-fiction which entertains & informs.

Birthday cake lovingly baked by BakerFriend Extraordinaire (white cake with my favouritest American buttercream) & considerately gifted several weeks after my birth day so I can continue celebrating through the month (and with some distance from the numerous cakes I consumed during my birthday week).

I enjoy so much & am inspired by Laurie’s Friday Favourites (NotesFromTheHinterland), ThistlesandKiwis’ This Week’s Small Pleasures, and LittlePiecesofMe’s Grateful Fridays. So, I am joining in with things that I am grateful for this week.
