Pick Me Ups

You know when you're having one of those days where things are a crap shoot and you just need something to make you feel better?

Well here's my list:

  • Ben and Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie
Next to cupcakes, brownies are my next favorite dessert. What else goes good with brownies? Ice cream of course. The perfect pairing and my go to ice cream for days like this.

  • Old Movie Musicals

 What a better way to lift your spirts than to watch those grand MGM musicals. One of my favorites is Singing in the Rain. I've watched it 20 times already. Plus tap dancing always makes me smile. 
Watch one of my many favorite scenes here.


 
  • Silly But Awesome Videos

Like this...


*Psst: When this song comes on either at home or in the car, I like to dance like a spazz. Well in the car it's more like a head bop.

  •  Ferris Bueller's Day Off 


In reality, he would be brushed off as a slacker. But in the land of John Hughes, he's the high school anti-hero. 
His "joie de vivre" reminds you that even on your worst day, there's still a better one at the end of the tunnel. 
 He did also provide what I think is one of the best movie quotes:

"Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."


What's on your feel good list?
