Sense of smell

This morning I made muffins and soup stock.

The muffins were a good way to use up pumpkin and applesauce from the fridge.

The stock used up a lot of vegetables that are past their prime like the parsley and some dried up ginger root. I also added garden fennel and celery leaf from the freezer.

The competing smells in the house got a little troublesome so it was nice to get out in the fresh cold air for a walk. (Actually I’m always happy to notice I can smell because I associate it with not having Covid.)

Just a little snow fell last night, enough to outline every twig and branch with white. Captivating.
