Five senses friday

Hearing:
The sizzling of food mixed with the sharpness of the chinese language

Feeling:
Frustration because I ordered orange chicken and sweet and sour pork, yet they messed up and instead brought orange chicken and sweet and sour chicken.
Guilty because I really wanted sweet and sour pork, but didn't want to ask them to remake it.
Mad because I forgot they made the wrong dish them still tipped them twenty percent.

Seeing:
Lobster swim in the tank farther down the restaurant
Strange posters with marker colored on them, like school pictures, with the daily fish special
Saint and I enjoy another wonderful dinner/date night together

Smelling: The burn of my fingers because the tea cup doesn't have any handles???? (who does that?)
The wonderful aroma of really good chinese food (despite the atmosphere)

Tasting:
Warm, moist, chewy chicken smothered in spicy orange sauce and very sweet, very sour chicken with juicy pineapples and crispy vegetables

five senses friday - the puzzle

See Abby for information on participating in Five Senses Friday.

Tasting:
The soft, moist pumpkin bread Saint (see the guy in the hat?) made which is so good because the outside is sweet (unlike most breads) and the inside always melts in my mouth


Feeling:
frustrated because I wasn't very helpful on this puzzle, but my cup runnith over with love for these two people in my life (Bugley, my 13 yr old niece is behind the camera); I pray I will never forget how truly wonderful it is to feel so amazingly free and happy like this with the knowledge that I never knew life could be like this


Hearing:
the sounds of the tv show Malcomn in the middle in the background; they were laughing so hard I couldn't bring myself to ask them to turn off the tv


Smelling:
the ever present smell of defeat of Saint being able to put together a puzzle twice as fast as I can (yes, we're a bit competitive)


Seeing:
what an lazy afternoon could be like in 10 years should we actually have a future together

five senses friday - monsoon

Visiting abby try again blog, I love her five senses friday. It is refreshing and beautiful. Thought I'd give it a try.

I've had a couple of really crappy past couple of days, so I plan on focusing on the main wonderful thing I experienced this week.

For (possibly) one more week we received really incredible low temperatures (for us) with rain and storms one last time before the god awful summer heat.



Seeing:
the new curtains I put up this past weekend billowing, swirling and whipping around


Hearing:
the clink of the blinds hitting the window sill


Feeling:
the cool breeze blowing around me, grazing my skin, the moistness of a storm to come


Tasting:
?

Smelling:
the heaviness of the rain to come and the lightness of the wind
