A brimming bowl of Semois, somewhere in there. Sweet Burley with a unique flavor and scent. Truly grand.
Also a few others, but this is what has captured my attention right now...

A healthy and satisfying morning dump. Sorry, but at my age that can make my entire day! Anything less and my day is pretty much in the dumper.

Singing Taps to my daughter before tucking her into her crib for the night.

The day isn't complete with something being added to the "Honey do" list. You know "honey can you do this and honey can you do that". 43 years and the list is longer now than when I married her!

I wasn't aware that Taps had lyrics.

I do not remember all the words: "Day is done, gone the sun . . . " An earlier version is "Put out the lights, go to sleep, go to sleep, go to sleep. Put out the lights, go to sleep, go to sleep."

I know the DI never sang it gently to us at boot camp.

"Singing Taps to my daughter before tucking her into her crib for the night."
In this case does "Taps" stand for Toddlers Are Pretty Sleepy?

The last thing I sing to her while she nods off is the first verse of Taps.

I agree with Cobguy, no day is complete without coffee. I've been told I'm rather grumpy till I've downed a few cups in the morning.

Day is done, gone the sun

From the lakes, from the hills, from the sky

All is well, safely rest

God is nigh.
Fading light dims the sight

And a star gems the sky, gleaming bright

From afar, drawing near

Falls the night.
Thanks and praise for our days

Neath the sun, 'neath the stars', 'neath the sky'

As we go, this we know

God is nigh.

Exactly.
Followed by and "I love you, Megan," and a kiss on the head.

I'm with you, gloucesterman. My wife is a pathological list maker and that includes lots of stuff for me even though I have my own list...
