Color Me Katie is an insanely cute blog — without being over the top. One of her posts talks about the things that make her happy. I still haven’t really figured it out the concept and meaning of happiness. I do know that….

• Blowing bubbles in the park make me happy
• When I wear a party dress because I feel like it’s my birthday
• Traveling and flying in planes. It makes me sad too because I remember how much more of the world I want to see
• Listening and creating music…or even just noticing it around the city
• Being lost in thought and spacing out
• Curling up with a good book during a vicious thunderstorm
• Kisses and hugs make me happy (except drools)
• Ice cream all year round (and french fries too!)
• Baking (and eating the creations)
• Sitting outside with a hot cup of tea or coffee and people-watching.

What makes you happy?
