August 1

Every now and then, a scent or taste will send me back to my childhood. I had one of those moments tonight after dinner.

I bought this ice cream last week; Adam loves cherry cheesecake, so I figured he'd enjoy it. What I'd somehow forgotten was that I liked cheesecake ice cream when I was a kiddo. Anyhow, the second it hit my tongue, the unique flavor immediately transported me back to the kitchen in my grandparents' basement. The memory was just a flash, but it made me smile.

We may live in the present, but those little unexpected glimpses back at pleasant memories from the past are big blessings to me.
