I’m sitting at my dining room table with the scent of ripe plums filling my head. I know they’re sweet, and juicy (so much so that the clear fragrant juice runs down your arm and chin—best to eat it with a napkin handy). No matter how old I get, the scent always takes me back to childhood summers. I’m not big on remembering my childhood, but for some reason this is a happy scent (probably because it’s food, although new puppies have the same effect).
Today’s prompt: add a scent you love to your project. Mention it on a scrapbook page, color it into your art, make it another, delicious layer in your character’s journey. And have fun.
