“The sun was warm but the wind was chill. “The people of God in Isaiah’s day had starved their imagination by looking on the face of idols, and Isaiah made them look up at the heavens; that is, he made them begin to use their imagination aright. Nature to a saint is sacramental. If we are children of God, we have a tremendous treasure in Nature. In every wind that blows, in every night and day of the year, in every sign of the sky, in every blossoming and in every withering of the earth, there is a real coming of God to us if we will simply use our starved imagination to realize it.”—Oswald Chamber, My Utmost for His Highest “Places, like people, are complex, and loving them isn’t simple.” —Kate Milford “In spring of youth it was my lot “The water was pure and cold and came out of the Apennines tasting like snow melted in the hands of a pretty girl.” “Gethsemane” “I stalked her Hello April! I headed out late this afternoon to find this tree and I was not disappointed. One of my favorite signs of spring…I think it’s a star magnolia? “The smell of bruised apples reaches me of a sudden. And in that moment I am back in Miss Eliza's kitchen, rich with cooking odors: the nutty smell of roasting coffee berries, the syrupy scent of fruit upon the stove, the pierce of a fresh-cut lemon, the sweet warmth of a split vanilla pod, the earthy heat of a crushed clove.”
― Annabel Abbs, Miss Eliza’s English Kitchen: A Novel of Victorian Cookery and Friendship
