Hmm, it seems everyone else here is so much more capable to say what they like, lol!

I love candles, Starbucks, books (love or mystery stories, fiction, nonfiction), Christmas music, Christmas anything, Flake chocolate bars, Ikea, Panda mixed licorice, movies, things we won't have to move with us.  :)

Thought it might be nice to bring this thread back to life, as there are lots of members here now that weren't about 3 years ago.

Anyone want a go?

How snuggly my little Joey is becoming
Being a great aunt
Knowing we are 3 weeks from holiday
British comedies
Indianapolis Colts
Manchester United
Christmas decorations
Christmas movies
Penguins (not copying the posts above, I really, truly love them)
Crockpot meals of hearty soups and stews on cold days
Fuzzy socks
Walking under an umbrella on a rainy day
Tower Bridge
Craft beer
Candles, although I can't burn them for fear of hurting Joey's little lungs



Lots more, but I will save for another post.

The usual. American girl meets British guy. They fall into like, then into love. Then there was the big decision. The American traveled across the pond to join the Brit. And life was never the same again.
