And Counting

I'm counting blessings this evening, and realized I never counted all those things I brought back with me from my trip to Santa Fe—

• mole verde spice
• Cantanzaro herbs
• Vadouvan curry
• Pakistan rosebuds & petals
• teas, including Maple Walnut, Earl Grey Provence, Russian Earl Grey, and Strawberry Pepper
• Rose Almond chocolate with chili and vanilla
• a sage smudge
• saints—Cecilia and Rafael
• a tangled string of birds (orange silk)
• beads
• balm
• bright napkins for the bistro table
• tiny baskets
• hearts
• a bell
• home-cooked green chili

Blessings indeed.
