About Toni
I love eating ice candy, especially if they’re made from fresh avocadoes or fresh mangoes. The colors chocolate brown and light green relax me. Mr. Bean makes me laugh. The glass is half-full, especially if it’s a chai latte that’s in there. Washing my face in the middle of a work day rejuvenates me. Playing The Sims 2 always cheers me up. My Yoshi collection cracks me up. All the Happy Nest illustrations are special to me because they were created by my husband. Blogging really rocks.
Hi! My name is Toni and these are my happy thoughts.

hi ms. toni,
i really love your articles too.. in fact, i have shared it to my friends..i love it! As what Alice Walker quoted, ““Deliver me from writers who say the way they live doesn’t matter. I’m not sure a bad person can write a good book, If art doesn’t make us better, then what on earth is it for.” your articles described who you are as a person i think. usually, as some particular article interests me, i moved to knowing the writer/author first for what they are writing is most reflected from where they are coming from
