Grapeful Grapes

So our apartment has this thing every night where we pray together and then go around the circle and say at least one thing we're grateful for. A lot of you who read this blog have probably joined us at least once. So once upon a time, there was a bowl of grapes that were delicious, and the girls of Apartment 21 sat in a circle eating them as they listed the things they were grateful for. Michelle tongue-tied the word when it was her turn and said that she was "grapeful" for grapes. And that is the longer-than-I-intended story behind the title of this post.

In no particular order, I'm grateful for:

• Cute new boots from Stephanie
• Books that I actually have a lot to say about when I'm in class
• Being a gospel doctrine teacher
• PizzaPieCafe
• Adorable engagement pictures of two of my favorite people in the world
• Working with people who are a ton of fun
• That my bike was not frozen to the bike rack this morning (a first in about three weeks)
• The most ridiculous, sexist Youtube video ever: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LS37SNYjg8w
• A new episode of Chuck aired last night -- I can get my weekly dose of Zachary Levi again
• Magic Erasers, because they save my butt in cleaning checks every single time
• Proposing a successful solution to our split vote on the theme of our photo contest in my magazine class -- just use one as a theme for the anecdote submissions. :)
• Jessika's absolutely delicious cookies
• Zivko, because his comment in Relief Society last week has come back to haunt me this week; but at least it makes me smile
• Chocolate, because I'm pretty much always grateful for that

And yes, I did update this after I originally posted it. Sorry for any who miss the additions because of that. I had to run to work before finishing, so I figured I'd just add on to it later. :)
