list it tuesday/ things that make me nostalgic

every smell that reminds me of scotland (wind, rain, sheep`s wool, the toasted cheese my grannie made), the videos of my son when he was small ( ah, the giggling!), duncan sheik`s song "serena", the movie beautiful girls, pain au chocolat, tuna baguette, victoria sandwich, the song "crazy mary" by victoria williams, margaret atwood`s poetry,the way my hair looks on old photographs, the notes my son wrote for me when he learned how to write, the bittersweetness of autumn colours, old letters.
