I was recently tagged in a challenge by my friend and fellow blogger Kathleen from Sweatpants and Topknots on twitter to write a post with 50 things that make me happy. Since we are only a week away from the Thanksgiving holiday, the timing of this post couldn’t be more perfect! So without further ado, here is my list of happiness-inducing items!
