Season of gratitude

This year I feel like the winter holidays kind of snuck up on me and passed me by. In an attempt to embrace the spirit of the season, I tried to tweet daily about something I was grateful for that day. Some days were harder than others. But there are some little things that make me smile in general that never made it into the Twitterverse:

• Gummy bears (Haribo)
• Tide stain pen
• Golden Girl reruns
• the Harriet Carter catalogue (f*#%ing hilarious)
• Infomercials, an underrapreciated genre
• the Natty Bo guy
• "Fresh Air" on NPR
• Trader Joe's

Well, that's a start.
