Brightly colored toilets,

days to relax,

pink flamingos,

nature walks,

sweet florentines,

trees that look like elephant’s feet,

convertibles, especially riding in them at night so you can admire the stars.

I was going to comment on everything, but now I can only remember the florentines. I haven't had those in such a long time and I love them so much. Must find a recipe! Thanks for the sweet memories! Love, Silke
