I don't know how well this will work as a meme, but I'm curious to see how it goes.
Summer Senses Meme
List the things you love about summer for each of the five senses and tag five people at the end. Simple!
Taste: Charred burgers with American cheese, gnawing on a grape popsicle stick long after the popsicle is gone, ripe summer fruit (watermelon, peaches, strawberries, grapes), chewing on the ice from a cherry limeade, hot dogs covered in ketchup and relish, potato salad with olives, pistachio ice cream in sugar cones
Touch: Warm grass, air-conditioned movie theaters, sand so hot it burns your feet, evening breezes, catching a Frisbee between your fingers, grasping ribs slick with barbecue sauce, t-shirts softer than down, flipping the pages of a brand-new chick lit book
Sight: Cherry-stained lips, lime green toenails, corn-on-the-cob dripping with butter, fireflies sparking on and off, parade floats, antique roses, tan lines from flip-flops
Smell: A fired-up grill, chlorine, sulfur from fireworks, lilacs, rain on dirt, the tang of salty ocean water, fresh hay, movie popcorn
Auditory: Neighbor kids playing at the park, the Beach Boys, thunder outside your window, over-played radio hits like Pocketful of Sunshine, sandals on pavement, the whirr of the homemade ice cream machine, the Grease soundtrack
I tag: Edge, Elisabeth, Srah, Dr. Bolte, Q, Chilly, Jamie, Jenn, Cuileann, EP, Erin, Heather, Megan, and Megan.
(Okay, so I cheated there and tagged a random butt-load of you. I figured it couldn't hurt in getting it off the ground. If I didn't tag you and you're struck by some summer adoration, I'd also be delighted to see what you love about summer.)
Labels: But oh those summer nights, Lists, Memes are fun
