April 1

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things

When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad

You know this song.  It makes me want to sing but I won't.  I love it. There are lots of memories behind it for me.  But the memories will remain for a time in March because April is all about favorite things.  What are your favorite things?  Join me for the next thirty days of Favorite Things!

Okay so I fell down for the last 11 days of March memories, but I'm on board with this one, hopefully I can get my act together :)

I think you SHOULD sing - it feels good! Great theme.

I forgot how much I love that movie and all the songs that put a smile on your face. I couldn't resist but sing it out loud as iI read, followed by a couple versus of Do-re-mi-Fa-so-la-ti-do.....love it!
