sniff
hmm..
"is that?..... fudge you're making Nanny?"
"Yes, its time to start making it" she says as she stirs constantly with a wooden spoon, making sure the chocolate is nice and smooth
mmm..
Growing up, I remember, smelling certain smells that would trigger the "holiday spirit"
The Hot Apple Cider would remind me of a cold hayride I took once
The hot coco in the freezing air reminded me of Christmas Caroling with my youth group
Fudge brewing in the kitchen reminded me of "Nanny's" giving heart (making treats for EVERYONE)
If I were to imagine these smells right now, it would take me back to remembrance of Christmas.
...to remember it
...to celebrate it
...to not forget about the spirit of giving
...to not forget about my Emmanuel- God with us
Do you have specific smells that remind you of a particular Christmas memory or essence?
