five senses friday


We've been on an emotional roller coaster this week. Soon, maybe I'll talk about it. I thought this would be a calm, reflective way to wind it up.

SIGHT:

skinny little legs with knobby knees in tall black soccer socks

my pretty new necklace

yellow and white and maybe a little green, for my last minute Tie One On apron

yellow

puddles on the black driveway

puddles

SOUND:

my new favorite, pandora.com

baby N cough, cough, coughing in the night

my dear mom's voice over the phone

rain tapping on the roof

TASTE:

homemade Italian sausage pizza

tart dried cranberries in the sweet oatmeal cookies

cranberries for the cookies

breakfast for dinner: cheesy scrambled eggs, waffles, fruit

a semi-sweet riesling chosen for the label alone

riesling

SMELL:

those oatmeal cookies in the oven

clean kiddo hair

j's bed- smells just like him

sheets

wet dog- blick!

TOUCH:

a big hug from my mom

snuggling N- she's only cuddly when she's ill

soft little boy hair- "How long do you want to grow it, J?" "Three years." :)

hair

wet shoes, hands, pant cuffs

Noticing the trend? They are predicting rain ALL. WEEKEND. LONG.

Rainy down here too, but Lord knows we need it. I hope little Nora feels better soon... and now you have me craving oatmeal cookies!
