trains! i keep seeing them, and they all say 'Test Train'. This makes me giggle. (and every time youngest hears one, she says 'train'. As we have been eating dinner out on the verandah, it is very clear when one goes past, so there are usually 2 or 3 calls of 'train' per evening meal)
working stove/oven! After the various debacles, both oven and stove work. Last night, made large batch of bikkies, chocolate chip. Much nicer to work with the new kitchen! Somehow, more space than the old one, which makes no sense whatsoever (except that the counter no longer has walls for stuff to wash up against, so it isn't getting so crowded)
mangoes. mulberries. raspberries. blueberries. cumquats. tangeloes. peppermint (fresh). apricots. blood plums. lillipillies. pomegranates. passionfruit. cape gooseberries. feijoa. strawberries. figs. persimmons. avocadoes. kiwi fruit. carambola. custard apple. And the fact that I have plants that may potentially produce most of these *in my very own garden*.
flowers on my pomegranate plant! very soon after the last ones, which were some time just after the leaves came out this spring. Maybe not all of them will fall off without producing fruit, although not very likely.
sushi. which youngest and I had a very small quantity of for lunch, 'cos we went to Jaws, and it's been a while, and my, isn't it expensive.
there is much else, but that would be much of the list of what has made me happy today.
