five senses friday #8

seen

dusk, arriving earlier these days

heard

Joshua Bell's recording of Vivaldi's Four Seasons. I've been doing a lot of writing at work and can't listen to songs with lyrics (because the words interfere with the words in my brain). The energy and contrasts of Vivaldi, however, make for excellent writing music.

smelled

the astringent aroma of lemons

tasted

this surprisingly good pizza. I especially like this variety, too. Can't comment on the other ones because sadly, my grocery store doesn't carry them. You can tell life is busy when I start eating frozen food frequently.

felt

heat rising from the pavement. After last week's cool days, the temperature soared back up into the mid-90s this week. I'm eagerly anticipating fall.
