Quote of the Day - "Treats"

"One of the secrets of a happy life is continuous small treats."
-Iris Murdoch

Or, more specifically, the secret is recognizing all the little treats in your life. Every day is packed with them--baby cuddles, Gala apples, a smile from a stranger, a new flower blooming on the same street you walk every day. The difference between positive and negative people isn't the number of treats in their lives, but whether they've chosen to enjoy or ignore them.

Mmm. Treats. And ice cream ain't a bad one neither. ;)

Hmmm...sounds like the same principle as with the blessing basket. "What did the Lord put in your blessing basket today?"

Much better than "What went wrong with your day today?"

Mint chip ice cream sounds like a definite blessing to me. Jamba Juices are pretty good, too.
