I can sometimes hear her music now, after thirty years -- and remember the leaves falling on some smoky autumn afternoon, the air crisp and the sounds of dogs barking, and train whistles far away.

As much as I love crisp clean whites there's always a time for rich but balanced Chardonnays with oak especially at Thanksgiving.

I love crispy cool sheets.

It's a beautiful thing diving into the cool crisp water and then just sort of being able to pull your body through the water and the water opening up for you.
