Oh!  Welcome, Queen of Days!

Oh! Welcome, Queen of Days!

  Oh!  Welcome, Queen of Days! How much you have been missed! And how glad we are to see you now with your skirts tucked neatly beneath you as you sink slowly into your rightful seat with regal grace and a smile of compassion for us – this rag-tag band of wanderers who have traveled…

single (practicalities)

Today’s post in this series on singleness and the church is a guest post by my dear friend, Sara Rendall (who should probably write a book about this stuff). Enjoy! If you are anything like me, you are sick to death of reading about being single. Mostly because a lot of articles, blog posts, and…

Meet Happy
Simple Felicity is, at its heart, a blog based on the unshakeable belief that happiness really isn't all that complicated. It's often found in the simplest of things: good food, good books, and good company. So those are the things I write about, along with a few other things that really matter to me, including faith and feminism. A bit about me: My name is Happy. I have an amazing talent for misplacing my keys, a deep appreciation for whomever looked at the coffee bean and thought, "Hey, I wonder what would happen if I roasted this?", and road trips to Michigan are pretty much my favorite.
