When you stop and think about your life, do you count your blessings or think that your life should somehow be different? A lot of the time, we think that we should be happier, have more material things, more money, and have accomplished so much by now. But if you take some time to look around and be grateful for all that you do have and for your successes, you will be able to celebrate the good stuff in your life. Choosing to be grateful for the little things in life can help shine a light on a much brighter and more positive future.
Here are 7 Ways to Slow Down & Celebrate Life Everyday
1. Play music, celebrate love. You don’t need a fancy occasion to crank up the music and sing out loud with the ones you love. Life is all about loving and sharing the joys of living a good life. Music is good for the soul, so take time to appreciate the small things and enjoy all that you have to offer in love and in life.
2. Treat yourself, celebrate you. You don’t have to spoil yourself silly and break the bank on an extravagant present for, yes, you. So, go ahead and treat yourself to something small, yet meaningful that will acknowledge what a great job you do everyday. Simply setting aside some self-care time would be a special treat to celebrate just how selfless you are is something you can find time for everyday.
3. Indulge in a sweet treat, celebrate with Dewey’s Bakery Soft Baked Cookies with your loved ones. Whether you’re single or coupled, take time to slow down, celebrate life and enjoy the moment. It’s okay to indulge once in a while and enjoy something sweet and decadent.. like these Dewey’s Bakery Soft Baked Cookies. They’re sooo so good {more information on the magic of these Southern Bakery goods below}!
4. Be grateful, celebrate others. It doesn’t take but a minute to tell the people in our lives know how much we love and care about them. Whether we tell the on a regular basis or surprise them with a small token of our appreciation, make sure to let them know how grateful we are to have them in our lives.
5. Get up and dance, celebrate freedom. Why not get moving and grooving just like you would if you were on the dance floor. Turn on your favorite playlist and dance around like you don’t have a care in the world. Celebrate the wonderful feeling of being carefree by singing at the top of your lungs, get your body moving, and just dance!
6. Plan a get together, celebrate friendships. Organize a girls night in or a special night out to celebrate your friendship. Enjoy good food, conversations and quality time with the ones you care about. Make it a monthly date and take turns picking the place to meet.
7. Write yourself a thank you letter, celebrate gratitude. We often forget to be good to ourselves and be grateful for what we do on a daily basis. We often express our gratitude to others, but forget about ourselves. Jot down a list of things that you are grateful for and celebrate the good stuff to keep a positive energy flowing everyday.
When you take a moment to appreciate the simpler things and be grateful, you’ll find that there are so many reasons to celebrate life everyday!
Now, let me just talk about these delicious Dewey’s Bakery Soft Baked Cookies for a minute. These cookies are like no other cookie you’ve ever tasted! My husband and kids all agree to that! These cookies are soft, chewy and I love that they’re baked with clean ingredients too, so I feel good about enjoying and sharing them with the ones I love! When I say clean ingredients, it means they are free of artificial flavors, synthetic colors, preservatives, artificial sweeteners, high fructose corn syrup (HFCS), and hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils. I was really surprised at how these cookies are so full of flavor! We love the Dewey’s Bakery Soft Baked Lemon Bar and Dewey’s Bakery Brown Butter Chocolate Chip flavors! If you need something quick to serve to unexpected guests, you can just warm up these cookies and they can definitely pass for homemade “right out of the oven” good cookies!
These unique bakery-inspired cookies will take you back to the good old days of sweet indulgence. There is a Southern charm to these cookies that transports you back to a warm and happy memory. That’s because Dewey’s Bakery has been baking original recipes with clean ingredients in Winston-Salem, N.C. since 1930!
When I think of the South a few things come to mind – sweet tea, southern cooking, and of course, famous Southern hospitality. That is what Dewey’s Bakery wants to share with you. For so many generations, Dewey’s has been a staple in the South by baking with only the best of ingredients to provide a homemade taste that is like no other. As a gesture in southern hospitality, Dewey’s show their dedication by giving back through fundraising programs that have successfully contributed over $3 million to North Carolina communities. Now, I really admire that about their company.
