If you break it down I am really a simple gal. I like reading my 3 year old a story, holding my husbands hand and eating cake. I love hugs, watching my husband and daughter when they don't know it and being missed by someone I love.
Life can get so chaotic that you forget to take time to appreciate the little things. As a food blogger I do a lot of baking. My 3 year old has declared herself the official taste tester in the house. So, everything I bake she has to get a taste of before its ready.
Cakes, cookies, brownies.... So every time I prepare a baked good, I stop what I m doing once the batter is mixed. I grab 2 spoons and call my Munchkin to the kitchen. We each take a taste of the batter and step back and enjoy it together.
It sounds so simple, but we truly enjoy that moment. I like to watch her light up as she gets a taste of that sweet treat. The expressions are always priceless and something I will remember forever. Like I said... The Little Things are so important.

My favorite moment taste testing was when we were making my sugar cookies last January we had a taste of the dough, I turned around and when I looked back she was up on her step stool digging her spoon into the stand mixer for a second taste. Compliments to the baker, I guess.
How do you take the time to step back and appreciate the Little Things?
