{ Five Senses Saturday }

It's a quiet relaxing Saturday, just the perfect setting to really hone in on my senses and jot down what is going on around me.

- The washer running, I think the load is unbalanced because it's clunking loud
- Crunching of chips as hubby and son munch on some nachos
- Disney channel on the TV
- Nerina Pallot "This will be our year" playing on my Spotify
- Curt and Jasmine talking about time, does it exist, does it not, the universe etc.

::See::

- My placemats hanging on the kitchen bench, drying
- My Kindle charging next to my laptop
- My nail polish sitting on the counter, I couldn't find it earlier, just did
- Lola resting on the couch
- Jasmine sitting at the dining table, drawing

::touch::

- the candle I shared with you yesterday
- the eye ointment that we have to apply to Lola's eye
- soft bread dough as I knead it
- cold, wet laundry as I move it from the washer to the dryer
- the softness of my mink blanket on the bed

::taste::

- Almond and Orange Tart...it took me back to Portugal
- Roast beef, caramelized onions and horseradish sliders
- ice cold water with a wedge of lemon
- nachos we had for lunch
- orange chicken and rice

::smell::

- orange rind
- honeysuckle body wash from Cath Kidston
- someone grilling food in the neighborhood
- onions as I chopped them for the nachos
- laundry detergent loaded into the washer
