5 Senses Saturday

I've been exploring some new blogs recently. 'Made by Mike' and 'Abby Try Again' are emerging as favorites for their stunning photography, simple writing and their weekly ritual, 'five senses friday'. I love the idea of recapturing the week through the senses...how many of us take the time to 'smell the flowers' these days? Its also a great way for me to update my blog at least once a week, apart from taking some time to reflect and contemplate the environment around me.

So here we go -

Seeing - My good friend A, who is one of the sweetest and smartest people I know.

Hearing - A literal clap of thunder last night, which seemed to have struck right outside our bedroom window. I saw this morning that it had splintered an old tree nearby.

Tasting - My first 'falling off the bone' mutton chops that I made on Thursday. Pressure cookers rock!

Smelling - Actually, this week its been about NOT smelling sweat thanks to my office AC being repaired!

Feeling - Sleepy from the gentle thrumming of raindrops outside.
