Fall
After a sound drenching ( 4 inches of rain in 24 hours) this past weekend, I find myself deeply breathing in the spicy smells of Fall; rich, scintillating and earthy. It is a smell that surprises me every year with its unpredictable appearance, and its thoroughly delightful and engrossing spell.
It will soon be Halloween and then Thanksgiving and their associated smells are already wafting through my consciousness. And again, amidst the frenetic pace of these times, I am reminded of the simple elegance of Fall and the many gifts of abundance that surround me.
