Happy almost end of August/almost end of summer. August is my second most favorite month of the year and here is the reason why. Our family celebrates two birthdays this month. My daughter’s (24th August) and mine (28th August). As you can see our birthdays are right around the corner and I have alot to be thankful for. As a part of my birthday celebration I have been blogging a series of “33” themed post. Believe me, thinking up 33 things is no easy feat. Nevertheless, thanks for checking out 33 of my favorite things. Feel free to share if any of these things are your favorites too.

Drop me a line at latisha@asklatisha.com, if you would like to send me “happy birthday mail.” I love happy mail, it truly makes my day. I love postcards, greeting cards, penpal letters, souvenirs, local handmade or homemade (made by you) things. I love getting to know about the lives and hometowns of others. (Just sharing what I like, not begging for stuff). Happy Birthday mail would truly be a blessing to me, especially at this season of my life where I could use a little extra prayer and encouragement.
Lindt choclates, hands down! Johnny Depp- HOT! Sandra Bullock- BEST! Green tea, I drink it warm every single day. It’s A Wonderful Life, a family tradition to watch on Thankgiving night. These are some of my favorites from your favorites.
