she makes it every fall.
the grapes come from the yard,
and grandpa's vines too.
the house fills with that
sweet fragrance
and soaks into the furniture,
and wraps years of memories
into one moment.
yesterday i finally opened up
a bottle my mom gave us
two years ago.
no sweetening necessary.
thank you, mom,
for such a rich and yummy
tradition.

You have... one of the most lovely blogs and styles I have come across in awhile. It honestly makes me want to be your best friend. Keep blogging!
For some reason, I can't find your address. So I must contact you through blogger or facebook. Annoying. Will you e-mail it to me. ltross17@yahoo.com
Next time you're in Utah, let's have a photography pow-wow. I honestly don't know much, but I'm happy to share what I do. The eye sparkle is easy. Good light, dead-on focus, and a little trick in photoshop. When are you coming next? I'm not shooting at all in December, so if you're here at all that month, we could do lunch or something. I'm having a baby Dec. 28th so it would have to be before then. E-mail me.
