Every Little Bit Makes A Difference

. . . Just A Little Bit

I read something this week that made my heart flutter. It said:

Enjoy the little things.
For one day you may look back and realize they were
the big things.

This past weekend, and the days that led up to it, can best be described the very same way - a million little things that, in hindsight, are (in every single way) deliciously Big. My Some Kind of Wonderful life is absolutely pinch-able! I'll give you the highlights . . . a Toast to the little things.

Leah Yetter’s "LITTLE" photography exhibit at Macon Arts garnered the most impressive attendance I have yet to see at an opening reception. She was the Belle of First Friday, it was huge success (to say the very least) and we are all so proud of her.

An ITTY BITTY walk down First (next door in fact) to Ginger Michelle's sidewalk sale and I had a big brown bag full of bargain - a coral dress whose straps tie in a darling bow that sits right on my collarbone.

A TEENSY bit later, I headed down to Tic Toc where Jessica (Walden), Leah and crew were waiting for me with a great big surprise - a real live Sugar Daddy. Sugar Daddy treated us to drinks, dinner and dancing. He even ordered for us. And I never thought I was the kind of girl who would want a man to order for her. Turns out . . . I-yam! Thanks, Sugar Daddy.

On Saturday, Allyson (Moody) and I took a SHORT trip up the road to Atlanta for a very large time in Virginia Highlands. We had brunch at Murphy’s and I ordered the Chilaquiles. They were excellent and I sipped a Virgin Mary that rivals any of the saucier versions I’ve had elsewhere. But the Must-Not-Miss at this joint can be found in the bread basket. That’s right . . . I had a muffin and a biscuit, that we didn’t get to, wrapped up to go. Ain’t no shame in my game. Not where bread is concerned, at least.

Brunch leftovers also included a WEE bit of time for shopping before we got back on the road. Dabberdoo and Dakota J’s were big on style and I got to ask “how much is that doggy in the window” at Half-Moon Outfitters. Across the street we found a doormat that gave us cause for a “paws” and a chuckle as well. The Ice-ing on our Saturday . . . a couple of gelatos (I recommend the Wild Cherry) from Paolo’s and one very flirtatious Valet. Oh do go on!

By Sunday evening I was having a TINY taste of something that I've been hearing a whole lot about - the Bang Bang Shrimp at Bonefish. They were just that - Bangin! and I reccomend that you wash them down with a Patron margarita . . . or three.

So there you have it. A little here and a little there and, before you know it, you've been spoiled slap rotten and fancy yourself an actual princess.

Josh, one of the boys at my office, walked by me the other day and said "watcha grinnin' like at for? Ya look like a possum - eatin' persimmons." Just a small piece of advice from me to you . . .
Enjoy Every Little Bit!
