five senses friday!

sight:
-the starts on my window sill; they’re sprouting! I’ve been documenting their growth with my film camera so more pictures are to come. So far, we see little cinnamon basil, tomato, & sunflower (which are huge!) sprouts. I’m so excited for the eggplant, lavender, other basil, & pepper sprouts to start appearing!
-daffodils, tulips, & cherry blossoms blooming everywhere!
-our new apartment on the second floor of a tiny blue house with white trimming
taste:
-a dipped ice cream cone from Dairy Queen
-a delicious ginger & carrot cupcake with cream cheese frosting from Uprise Bakery
-delicious salad greens with nuts & raisins
-strawberries found while on our weekly adventure!
-homemade carrot cake for our one year made by my {love}

touch:
-fresh clean linens on my bed
-knitting needles from crafts’ night
-the pages of textbooks from hours of studying
sound:
-Bright Eyes’ older albums
-the zooming of cars & children’s laughter from across the street
smell:
-the newness of spring
-fresh linens & a tidy bedroom
-fresh flowers in our home

Happy Friday! I am so excited for this weekend- clear skies & warmer temperatures. Luke & I plan to rent a movie tonight & relax. On Saturday, I’m looking forward to the farmer’s market, reading “Real Simple”- given to me by Luke, & helping close friends move into their new home.
It will be a good weekend, I’m certain.
love,
Natalie
