A to Z of Small Delights, Simple Pleasures, & Significant Memories
Delightful Small Delights, Simple Pleasures, & Significant Memories…
- Dogs playing: I love to watch our two doodles play, both with each other and other dogs. I’ll watch puppies play anytime. Always brings a smile to my face.
- Daisies: No roses for me (but if you have to, make them yellow or peach), daisies are my flower of choice. Common daisies, white petals with a greenish-yellow center, please.
- Dragons: I love them all – cartoonish, fierce, fairy tales, books, movies, television. They always make me smile.
- Diner mugs: There is something about them. The heft. The shape. How they warm your cold hands. Over our ten years of full-time travel, we collected dozens and dozens of them. We have donated some but still have a lot. I mean A LOT!
- Dragonflies: No, this isn’t part of my love for dragons, they are in a category by themselves. So graceful, they make me think of flying fairies.
- Disaster Movies: I call them silly sci-fi disaster movies and I love them all, not matter how silly or outrageous. Some are really good, Twister and 2012 come to mind. Some, not so much (and I won’t name any).
What are your delightful small delights, simple pleasures and significant memories?

Thank you.
Kindred spirit here, for all of those 🙂 I especially love dragonflies…
The Multicolored Diary
… and sometimes I can even spell them right….
I just fixed it…LOL!
I actually have a tattoo of a cartoonish, flirty little dragonfly.
I like all of those except diner mugs, as I don’t know what they are. I’m not sure about disaster movies – they’re exciting, but I get too tense watching them!
The diner mug is a specifically shaped coffee mug, often found in diners in the US. Here’s a little info: https://sauvieislandcoffee.com/blogs/blog/who-invented-the-original-diner-mug
I’m with you on two of these. Dogs playing – or dogs period. And, no roses; but my flowers of choice are carnations.
I do like most flowers except tulips. Not sure why, but they just don’t interest me.
I would add Daffodils, happy Dreams, my Dad, Indian festival of Dasara, and a little bit of Drama into my list of favourite Ds! Yours are good too.
Wonderful additions!!!
Lovely post and I totally agree about dogs playing – or just dogs in general to be honest, they never not put a smile on my face 🙂
My D post
Awww, and thanks for dropping by!
Now, this is such a coincidence, Donna! I love all the things you have mentioned here: dogs (my fav animal), dragon flies, daisies (also a fav), disaster movies (2012) and those cute-looking cartoonish! 🙂
Hey, great minds and all…
I like daisies as well. Here’s another delightful D: ducks! I love to watch them at the lake. The other day one handsome drake let me approach super close. No zoom needed to take a picture.
I wouldn’t say no to a delicious donut either!
No ducks here but I do enjoy watching them. Ah, donuts – guess they got left off since we are mostly low carb. LOL!
I love disaster movies too and Twister is a favourite “We got cows!!!” lol.
Hubby and I say that all the times…LOL!
Wow….this list could read like my own! I especially love the daisies and dragons and dragonflies! This A-Z theme is “delight-hearted”
Perfect term for it – thanks!
Love watching playful pups but as an ignorant Aussie I haven’t experienced a diner mug. I imagine them as thick, heavy and break resistant.
Diner mugs are truly think (keep drinks warm longer), heavy (because they’re thick), and break resistant because of the thickness. They are very common here in the states. https://www.brownjenkins.com/blogs/the-vermont-coffee-blog/who-invented-the-diner-mug
I love how you have included so many delights.
Thanks and thanks for stopping by to visit!
