Unforgettable

When fragrances of candles and sachets come wafting to me as I shop, I close my eyes a moment, think of childhood days, and smile. I loved the sachets Mama chose to place in drawers—lavender and rose. Preparing grandkids’ breakfast takes me back to lovely scents of childhood. I recall those sausages and yummy golden stacks of flapjacks Mama fixed. Down our short hall, I hurried to be served. I never stalled! written February 18, 2018, for Sara Kendrick's contest
