Casual Magic!

Have you ever heard of the term 'casual magic'? 
It was coined by a YouTuber and content-creator - 'UnJaded Jade', to describe the beauty in the mundane moments of our lives.
It's the little glimmers that bring us joy. Whether that's sipping a herbal tea, the scent of pencil against paper as you draw, the comforting weight of your blanket while you watch Netflix, or that giddy feeling of listening to your favourite artists' new single for the first time.
I personally find a lot of comfort in this idea, and wanted to create a little space where we could share some of our daily 'casual magic' with each other, whatever that looks like to you.

I cut up an apple and ate it with peanut butter and sprinkled on lottsss of dark chocolate chips. It was simply delicious, and so nostalgic of when I was younger too
And then yesterday, my casual magic was noticing the BRIGHT green baby leaves starting to come out on the trees. I loved the colour of them against the sky!!
My Casual Magic today was going on a morning walk and taking in the warm, sunny weather we're having at the moment!
Do you have a casual magic of the day today? What's something small that's sparked joy for you?
no unfortunately @Sian321
I love that sky so so much its so calming and pretty at the same time!.
And oooo I love your description so much of your casual magic there, esspecially the sensation of the yarn pulling through the perfect stitch. That sounds so satisfying! What are you creating at the moment?
Aw thank you so much
omg I love highland cows so much, aren't they adorable?
What's one 'glimmer' (a little detail or moment) that's brought you joy this past week?
For me, it was going before work yesterday to buy a baguette and a croissant to make the day feel a bit more 'weekend-ey'.
It was so nice to get outside into the sun first-thing, because usually I find getting out of bed so hard haha!!
I'd love to hear about any little pockets of joy you experienced this last week!
I guess mine for this week would have to be watching my sister perform at a concert where she played drums, guitar, piano and sang! When I was watching her at that moment I felt super grateful to have been born into a family who loves music - and for her inspiring me to keep on playing the piano and continue singing. Also, I absolutely loved listening to the sound of the instruments which really elevated the performances - she and her bandmates really did a great job, it was such a good night that sparked lots of joy
Also happy Sunday! I really love baguettes, I haven't had one in ages and now I really want one hahah
