Sometimes the simplest things in life are some of the best. Here are a few of my favourites:
- guinea pig kisses
- watching the guinea pigs sleeping
- the combination of chocolate and peanut butter
- cozy blankets
- soaps from Lush
- bedtime
- toasty slippers
- moisturizer
- the simple beauty of nature
- tea
- focaccia bread and balsamic vinegar
- baguette and brie
- the feeling of sun on my face
- birdsong at dawn
- the feeling of sand beneath my toes
- the sound of waves crashing against the beach
- the sound of leaves rustling in the breeze
What are some of your faves?

A cosy fleecy blanket, while having a warm drink. This would be either a book, or a dvd.
A walk in nature.
My parlour palm plant, spider plant and yellow fake flowers, which makes it feel like home, since no longer having my cat Miley.
Had Miley still been alive, than cuddles from her.
My houseplants make me feel cozy and peaceful too!
Poor little Miley. Those other things sound very nice though.
Great list. 🙂 Many of these things I absolutely love too. 🙂

Watching my dog play. A walk at the park. Enjoying a nice breeze. My houseplants. Reading blogs of course!
Dogs are wonderful 🙂
Cozy blankets it’s me 😉
ketchup and mustard on eggs
and hamburger
coke and sprite
cold and warm
yum
A nice walk in the park in the early morning, a cool breeze, candle light, a good conversation and a really god book or tedtalk. I enjoyed reading your list lots of lovely but simple life pleasures.
Those sound nice 🙂
Listening to the birds in the morning
The sound of water clashing in the torrent
The scent of the forest early in the morning
To watch the fire burn in the stove
My dog and many more
Those sound wonderful.
Lovely choices, a lot of which I’d go for too. A snuggly blanket and a good book, Lindt chocolate with a cuppa tea, my cat napping with a smile on his face (unless that’s gas…), pink blossom in the park, stillness & quiet, a lie down after a walk to ease the pain in my hips, new stationery! 🙂
Those sound lovely!
The ocean, The sun, the heat, good music, hugs from my kids, snuggles from my cats & dog, kid laughter, being in nature, Chocolate!
Fabulous!
All of these sound wonderful. I just absolutely love being outdoors in nature. Simply soothes my nerves for sure. 🙂
Definitely. 🙂
Hi Ashley! I just nominated you for the Liebster Award!

Thanks!
Welcome! 🙂
I so agree that simple pleasures are important. They can add up and make a difference. I know in moments of grief, a simple pleasure can bring a much needed reprieve.
My pet parrot is a pleasure who always wants to be with me.
Oh that definitely sounds nice 🙂
My top 3:
1. My husband holding my hand while watching TV
2. My garden/plants
3. Snuggles from my minipig.
Those sound very nice 🙂
The slow wakening from slumber, waiting for the chirp of a sparrow or glint of sunlight through the curtain. The realizing, you made it through the dark night of your soul…
That sounds lovely. xo
Aww! I like flowers, sitting in the sun, dancing with my sister, drinking warm water, running my hands under warm water when I’m cold, swimming…
I love that feeling of warm water on cold hands 🙂
Such as a small cute puppy 😍😍
Yes!
