RANDOMNESS :: THESE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS... { MELISSA GLYNN PHOTOGRAPHY : TEXAS PHOTOGRAPHER }

I was sitting at home today and realized that I had several of my favorite things sitting close to me... and thought I should share them with the world. First, I was looking at my library and thought that I would share a few of my favorite books with you all. These are books that had huge impacts in my life, made me laugh, made me cry, and moved me to action. I highly recommend you pick one or all of them up if you're looking for a great book.

Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris
Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert



Next, it's my favorite time of the year... well, one of four of my favorite times. The new Martha Stewart Weddings is on news stands and it's a beauty! I LIVE for these magazines. I actually have a collection of them that dates back to 2005. Yep, it's true. So, go pick up your copy today!!



One of the simplest pleasures in life that I often overlook are flowers. They can bring cheer to anyone and everyone...even if they're not yours. I recently went on a date (that's right... a date) where we had a picnic at Townlake. When I got there, he had an arm full of lillies and daisies waiting for me (MAJOR bonus points). The best part though was making the walk back to my car with the flowers in tow. I watched as almost every single woman who came across my path smiled a sincere smile of appreciation and maybe a little bit of envy. So, men... if you're reading this... make a note, ALL women like flowers. ALL. Even those of us who say we don't really care for them... we still enjoy their company. So, go get your lady some flowers today!!

I made a mini-arrangement 'cause it was too cute!
