A few of my favorite things

Stationary shops

I love notebooks, pens, and paper. I also love decorative tape. There is a store near the local grocery store that has ink pens, markers, colored pens, chalk, cardboard, construction paper, origami paper and handmade Japanese paper (washi).

Aquariums 

We only have a small one now for my daughter’s goldfish but I’d love to have a tropical fish tank. I used to have one many years ago. Tropical fish require care and it’s not easy but they were beautiful.

Electric carpet 

My home does not have central heat so I love my electric carpet. Since I’ve been working from home, it’s vital in the cold months. My cats also love the electric carpet so I have to share the space. 

Chocolate chip cookies

I love chocolate chip cookies. They are a fundamental part of my food pyramid.

  2. Yes, what is an electric carpet?? Also, I’ve always wanted fish but I’m terrified of taking care of them properly… maybe one day I’ll feel up to the challenge.

  4. Chocolate chip cookies are essential to life. 🙂 I’d love to know what an electric carpet is, but I’m guessing it might be like an electric blanket for the floor? I can see my cats loving something that’s on the floor and warm. I’d have to wrestle them for time on it. 🙂

  5. Mmmm chocolate chip cookies. Yum! I used to have an aquarium and while it was very pretty, it was also high maintenance. It’s one of those labors of love, I guess. I’m intrigued by the electric carpet. 🙂

  6. I love stationary stores too. My house is filled with journals, colored pencils and gel pens, cause writing matters!

    Never heard of an electric carpet, not that it is needed that much where I live. Sounds like a good idea in a cold climate.

  9. We had a 55 gallon salt water aquarium for 15 years. It was a lot of work, but so beautiful. Electric carpet, never heard of one of those. Enjoyed your list. Thanks for sharing, here’s mine. https://www.tenastetler.com/a-few-of-my-favorite-things-lsrs-weekly-blog-challenge/

  12. Okay… Electric carpet sounds amazing. I’m seriously going to have to look into that. I don’t have the patience to tend to an aquarium, but I do love looking at them.

    My list is here.
