Five Senses Friday

See:

Susanna's latest encaustic painting in person

artist's sketchbooks saved from the dustbin by a friend

a giant maple leaf resting on top of my car as if left there as a present

far too many episodes of Ghost Whisperer, a new guilty vice

ink on my fingers

Hear:

the furnace kicking on for the first time this season

John in the Morning of KEXP in Seattle on Radio NY

a facinating Radio Lab episode about parasites. No, I'm serious. It was fascinating.

Sweets telling me about the book he's been reading

news of a delay

Belle and Sebastian

Feel:

cold that just won't go the hell away

nippy air

Taste:

little ladylike apples

potato leek soup with a cayenne kick

shrimp toast

hot cocoa with marshmallows

tamari almonds warm from the oven

giant and tasty strawberry ice cream cone

apple crisp al a mode

Smell:

earthy beets

yeasty dough rising

Fig fragrance

luscious as always...especially love the sound (and scent) of the furnace kicking on.
