I’m not exaggerating when I say that it’s three or four years ago since I first said that I’d love to take part in Thursday Doors. And I still haven’t done it. I came across a Thursday Doors post recently and promised myself that I’d participate.
Thursday Doors is a weekly challenge for people who love doors and architecture to come together to admire and share their favourite door photos, drawings, or other images or stories from around the world. If you’d like to join in and create your own Thursday Doors post each (or any) week, visit nofacilities.com for more information.

I’ve chosen Clear Blue for today’s #picoftheweek2023
This photo was taken on the idyllic island, Inishbofin, off the West coast of Galway. I have some beautiful photos from our few days here on the Island and some things I’d like to say about the island itself. That’ll be a separate blog post I think!
The prompt for Linda G Hill’sStream of Consciousness Saturday (#SoCS) is “cent/scent/sent.” Use them in any form you like. Use one, use two or use them all. Bonus points if you use all three, and Cheryl will put your next drink on David’s tab. (I could never resist a free drink Linda!)
I have a fantastic sense of smell. My children often tease me about it because I smell things that no one else can smell. “You and your nose Mammy.”Scent is important. Sometimes it evokes a memory; it can give us happy feelings or sad feelings.
I have photos in my camera roll that make me feel warm, hungry, refreshed, excited and sometimes nostalgic. It’s not just the image that conjures up feelings, it’s also the smell associated with the image.
Here’s my favourites.
The refreshing scent of the sea and freshly washed up seaweed.
Frothy Nespresso.
Black Magic Chocolates.
Roses
Coconut Oil
Freshly Cut Grass
1 cent, 2 cent and 5 cent coins. (For when we play cards at Christmas) Copper coins remind me of childhood days!
Aw the lovely smell of Cotton after she’s had a bath.
My son sent me this photo. This little munchkin will be joining the family this Christmas. I can’t wait to hold him/her and inhale the most gorgeous scent of a new born baby. This is my favourite smell in the whole world!
