Memory

No scent at my aunt's tea gatherings

Striped white cup of milky tea, a lump of brown sugar sending up splashes against black

My aunt hosts small tea gatherings every autumn and asks guests to come unscented, so the roasted tea and the wet garden are all you smell. I used to find it strict. Now I think it's the kindest rule I know.

Same when we open the wood-fired kiln, nobody wants perfume over that first breath of hot clay.

Hello friends, in my grandmother's house in Seville the perfume was not for Sunday lunch, only the orange blossom from the patio. Un abrazo.
