What little thing(s) brought you Shimmers of Joy during quarantine?

[Maedchen]

I think we all can agree that so far 2020 has been tough.

What little thing(s) brought out glimmers of joy in your life to make you smile?

This might not bring you the same feeling, but for me, Starbucks was my little oasis of smile and just a place to unwind and have a treat. Our Starbucks closed very early on in the quarantine and even now, you can't go there to sit.

I bought a battery operated Milk Frother from Amazon (since I am not going out) and from a tip on Delanga coffee here on GCM, I have pretty much been able to make myself a coffee treat and I smile every time I use it. (I don't need to go out, I can have more frequent treats for less cost. ) This morning, I used it with my Half and Half and have a pretty good Latte substitute instead of just a plain hot coffee with cream.


We have not been able to get our ice maker hooked up to the sink since we got it in the early part of this year, but I bought some ice trays that have lids so I don't spill the water all over the floor putting it in the new on the bottom freezer drawer.

Those are simple things that cost me about $20, but I get a daily smile when I use them.

I have ordered new yarn and normally that would make me grin from ear to ear, but due to the quarantine and shut downs, it has been sitting somewhere in customs for over a month and I look to see if the postman brings it every day.............. when it doesn't come, I go make a cold coffee.
