I love my Five Senses Saturday, and although I don't post it every single Saturday, I still think it's a great way to review the past week. What I saw, what I touched, tasted, felt etc....
::Hear::
- David Nevue "Just as I am", I love piano music and find it very relaxing
- Kids laughing as they play X-Box
- The sound of rain on the living room windows
- My husband chatting with my brother about work
- The kettle boiling
::See::
- dark cloudy skies
- a deer hanging from my neighbor's tree, that's the 3rd in 2 weeks
- the flames flickering in the fireplace
- snow tipped mountains in the distance
- the orange and red leaves falling from the trees
::Touch::
- soft yarn as I work on my scarf
- the children's cold fingers after they've been playing outside
- bread dough as I knead it
- bubbles in the sink from the dishes
- the warm cowl around my neck keeping the cold out
::Taste::
- another Portuguese meal that reminds me of home
- Vanilla flavored Bailey's coffee creamer
- ginger, lemon and honey in my hot cup of tea
- delicious nachos from the Mexican restaurant down the street
- baby ruth, almond joy and snickers bars the kids gave me from their candy stash
::Smell::
- rain soaked earth
- "Beautiful" perfume
- pumpkin seeds roasting in the oven
- chocolate and white chocolate chip cookies fresh out of the oven
- Arby's roast beef sandwich slathered with horseradish sauce
Beautiful, all of it!
ReplyDeleteI love this post you do. I hope and pray things are settling down for you.
ReplyDeleteAgain, I love this post. Now that we have things under control regarding our son's injury. I think I can get back to blogging. I am SO ready for this year to be done.
What a great post to remind us of the basic yet wonderful blessings we have each and every day! Thanks and have a wonderful week. Will try to join you for Homemaker Monday (if I can get the post finished tonight).
ReplyDeleteThe Portuguese dish looks yummy! I love the smell of rain and rain soaked earth and leaves. Got a good whiff of that this weekend too especially as we had to rake up rain soaked leaves before the snow fell on it all and made a huge mess. Don't know that I'd like to look out the window to see deer hung on the neighbor's tree.
ReplyDeletei love good piano music too. Hymns and ragtime are my favorite.
