1. The smell of praline at the French market in the Pantiles.
2. As our fire caught, its light picked out bright red yew berries on the branches above us.
3. Holding a blođ to mark Samhain. Three drinking horns went round and round the circle. We toasted absent friends, our ancesters and those who have gone on before. As the horns emptied, they were filled again and again - with honeyed beer, mead and cider.
