The teeniest tiniest white plastic spoon sits atop the gold foil lid of a small can of Bumblebee tuna salad that I am going to eat for lunch. Behind it rests the blue and white cardboard box that the tuna salad, crackers and spoon came in.

A photo of a simple thing that brought me joy today, cute and yellow and chubby edition:
A bright yellow, old-school rubber duckie is perched on a tissue box. He is fixing the camera with his pretty, deep blue eyes and his orange beak is turned up in a happy duckie grin. One might say that I'm so lucky that he's mine, if one were inclined to spend many happy trips to a tub filled with bubbles.

A photo of a simple thing that brought me joy today, first snow edition:
The view from the back of my sister's house, on a snowy day. Heavy, fluffy white snowflakes fall on the already snow-blanketed ground of her backyard. Beyond the yard, the snow lays on the road, it is caked thick and heavy on the branches of pine trees, on the eaves of a light blue shed and, further back, the roofs of houses and a church on a distant hill.

4 photos of a simple thing that brought me joy today, remembering and honoring my Grandma edition:
The left side of a photo board my cousins made with photos throughout the years of my Grandma with her family, all of whom she loved so much. The center panel of a photo board my cousins made with photos throughout the years of my Grandma with her family, whom she loved so much. Highlights include pictures of her beaming with pride and happiness with her great grandchildren, as well as a very handsome portrait of her eldest son, Mario, who passed from cancer when he was just a teenager. The right panel of a photo board my cousins made with photos throughout the years of my Grandma with her family, whom she loved so much. Highlights include a beautiful seated portrait of her when she was a young woman, in a powder blue dress with her thick, jet-black hair, as well as the most evocative sepia time capsule of a photo of her when she was in elementary school, in which she was serving Laura Ingalls Wilder realness with her striped bib dress over her white blouse, her long dark ringlet curls framing her face, and her lively, innocent smile. A gorgeous, vibrant floral arrangement sent by my sister's employer, featuring big yellow sunflowers, red winter berries, giant pink and peach roses in full bloom, white hydrangeas, purple mums, tall green Bells of Ireland, and lush ferns and greenery, in a large rattan harvest basket. They smell as amazing as they look.

A close up of a section of a wrap I purchased that was just delivered to me. The wrap is dark midnight blue with orangey-gold suns, moons and stars all over them. The suns and moons have faces drawn on them in the style of 90's celestial decor.

A photo of a simple thing that brought me joy today, something I made that I'm quite proud of edition:
A crochet amigurumi Ditto from Pokemon sits on a gray blanket on my navy blue couch. He is made from light purple fuzzy blanket yarn and he's smiling up at the camera with his thin black yarn smile and two black shiny round safety eyes.

A photo of a simple thing that brought me joy today, souvenirs from my sister and nephew's vacation edition:
Two totebags are laying side by side. The one on the left is black and white with a bright yellow border and handle, with a cartoon drawing (in black) of a smiling Big Bird, with his wings up, with big block letters "B I G" behind his head. The one on the right is black and white with a bright orange border and handle; it features a black and white cartoon drawing of Bert and Ernie. Both are smiling big smiles and showcasing things that they love; Bert is holding a coveted bottle cap between his thumb and pointer finger, with a perilously-stacked tower of bottle caps (with a couple having already fallen off) from his prized collection. Ernie is holding Rubber Duckie up, close to his chest. Bert has his left arm around Ernie's shoulder.
