five things not to say to your single friends

five things not to say to your single friends

There have been a lot of very funny posts written over the past couple of years about some of the terrible things married people have said to their single friends (most of the ones I’ve read have been posted on Stuff Christians Like – because Jon Acuff is awesome like that). This may not be one…

7 Quick Takes Friday (vol. 21): community, kindness, and coffee

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.
