For Refreshment Only Sundays (FROS) gets happy . . .

They say gratitude is the path to happiness, so let’s grab us some ‘happy’ and say thanks for those things that make FROS such a lovely part of our week.

First, FROS would like to say ‘thank you’ to all of the men with sexy gazes that make us shiver:

Second, let’s hear it for the many broad and powerful chests that make our hearts pound:

Thirdly, let’s give a big thank-you shout out for men who have a great sense of humor and remind us not to take life too seriously:

Fourth, let’s be thankful for the men who love their pets and melt our hearts:

And lastly, but not least, thank you to the men who know how to wear their jeans. Nothing fits our imaginations better than well-worn denim.

Ok, m’dears, are we all happy and brimming with gratitude? I know I am! Happy (thankful) FROS!

      You’re welcome, Kelly! It’s tough, combing through all of those pictures of hot FROS for just the right ones, but you guys are worth it!

  3. Lori Howe says:

    I continue to be thankful for you and yor FROS (not to mention books), and The Goddess Blogs in general for too many reasons to list. Made my morning today, you did … Sigh…

    And I thank Karen Hawkins for FROS! Oh my. I am speechless… What a great way to make my trip back home more enjoyable! This is an extremely yummy version of FROS. And thanks for a pic of Patrick too!

    It was 27 degrees this morning in LA (Lower Alabama) but the temperature has suddenly gotten HOT !!! I am truly grateful for FROS – gives me my Sunday morning smile that lasts all day long!

    And I am also grateful for Suzanne Enoch’s Rules to Catch a Devilish Duke! Finished it in the wee hours of the morning and I LOVED IT!! Two wonderfully human and complicated characters, an intensely passionate and moving love story and the epitome of what a romance novel should be. Going straight to the keeper shelf! Thank you!
