Thanksgiving '12




More pictures of Fort Langley

Thanksgiving is one of my favourite holidays (a close second to Christmas). It falls in such a perfect time of the year when Summer has just ended and Autumn has just begun. Excusing the real history and politics of the holiday, while still being mindful of it, the day is a little reminder to gather, be grateful and gorge on delicious turkey!

Thankful that I get to...

  • Smell turkey roastings, evergreen and smoke, rain and fog. Everything has a scent if you inhale deeply.
  • See leaves start to crisp and colours start to amber as they have just finished baking and browning in Summer's oven. 
  • Hear new songs which have become regulars on my playlist. Autumn is best for the coziest of songs. Currently listening to (on repeat): BonesFineshrineTruthI Will Wait .
  • Feel blanketed by warmth from soft scarves, cotton sleeves, other people, sunshine through the cold.
  • Taste the caramelized flavours that are an essential palate to the colder days, nut and spices in teas; comfort food.
  • Know that the best is yet to be and life is always full of thanks.
Happy Thanksgiving!!

We spent Saturday in Fort Langley visiting the much anticipated 'Little White House Co.' We ate delicious delectables en le Salon Cafe, touched and felt every delicate cloth en la chambre, and enjoyed our walks within and around this very photographic house and this idyllic small town. It also reminded me that I need to take my camera out more often.
