I really like number 9, especially with a nice scented candle.
Wonderful list, Shelli! Forget writing about them - I may keep this list handy to remind me to slow down and enjoy life!!
Happy New Year!

I like your list too, Shelli.....Sounds good and it is great to see your posts pop up again :)
Great List Shelli!
I will have to think about my 31. I am sure I have at least that many as most things, Are my "most favorite things" :) And why did you choose the number 31?
Me, too, Angela; unfortunately, I don't have a bath tub anymore. :( When we get our dream house, I insist on a spa bathroom.
Sue, that was one of the best things about writing the list -- it reminded me of so much to enjoy in life.!
Hi, Renee! Thank you, it's good to hear from you, too, my friend.
Patti, I'd love to hear your 31 pleasures! I found the writing prompt online, and it suggested 31. Perhaps because there are 31 days in this month? I'll go with that. In any case, I like that number because it made me stretch my thinking a little bit.
Chocolate would be number one on my list as well. Love your list, Shelli, and thanks for sharing it with us.
Eydie :)
Eydie, sounds like we're kindred spirits!
