Sometimes you need big things to put you in a good mood, but the best things really are the little ones.

A recent survey of 2,000 people resulted in a list of the best little things in the world.

One of my favorite things is smelling chocolate chip cookies in baking in the oven. It takes me back to being a little girl and making cookies from Market Day when it was raining.

I also love when my almost 4-year-old niece gives me a giant hug when she sees me. Those are probably the best two little things for me.

  1. Sleeping in a freshly made bed
  2. Feeling the sun on your face
  3. People saying "thank you" or a random act of kindness from a stranger
  4. Finding money in unexpected places
  5. Having time to myself
  6. Laughing so hard it hurts
  7. Snuggling on the sofa with a loved one
  8. Freshly made bread
  9. Doing something for others
  10. The clean feeling after a shower
