What are 10 inventions you'd like to thank God (or the Universe or whoever it is that you give thanks to) for?
A few of her examples, which I completely agree with, are high heels, Chapstick and wine. I'd like to add computers (can you imagine writing a manuscript longhand?), books, airplanes, cars, BBQs/grills, metal handled calphalon pans and sunblock to the list.
What about you? What inventions are you crazy thankful for?
xoxo,
Suzanne
BTW - If you have question ideas, feel free to insert them in the comments or email me. I can always use a little help from my friends.
I am crazy thankful for the invention of the cell phone (how sad is that?) and the computer, because honestly, that handwriting a whole MS idea is ridonkulous. I have a writer callous from last night's journal entry!

Kristen, oh Genius, who came up with this fabulous question - are we talking inventions here? Because beaches, smiling, laughing and sleep are not exactly inventions, are they?
ReplyDeleteOr are we just listing what we're thankful for? Either way is cool with me. ; )
And I love your happy enthusiasm.
Inventions. SOMEONE invented the beach (God?).
ReplyDeleteOK I'll stick with inventions going forward. High heels count!! Ha ha!

ReplyDeleteYou gals are all too young to know that the ALL TIME GREATEST INVENTION is---panty hose!!! If you grew up with garter belts and nylons, especially those with seams that were supposed to go straight up the middle back of your legs, you'd know what to be thankful for! P.S. we even wore girdles, and I sure don't know why, 'cause that's when I had a FLAT stomach.
