Life is Good When...

[Flick James]

You know, I started the "You Know What Really Grinds My Gears" thread some time back and it was pretty well embraced for it's intended purpose, to just vent about stuff that annoys you.

What about the good stuff? Even a bloke as misanthropic and cynical as I manages to stop and smell the roses from time to time. What I'm talking about are those moments in life that just plain give you joy. You could relate something that routinely gives you pleasure or happiness, or something that recently happened to you that got those positive endorphins flowing.

So, let's see if this thread manages to be the counter balance to the Gears thread.

...I make a pleasing culinary discovery.

I recently discoverd I have a knack for cajun cooking. I made some shrimp etouffee last night that would have made the Gods themselves ask for seconds.
