Cady’s Photo Challenge: Just One Person Around The World

To acknowledge the traditional lands where we gather sometimes there is a Smoking Ceremony performed by the Indigenous people to welcome us. The people gather around the fire in a circle where green Eucalyptus leaves from the area are burnt giving a scented smoke that pervades the air.

I have been lucky enough to be involved in a few Smoking Ceremonies over the years and it is quite a powerful way of welcome. As the smoke rises, the singing and playing traditional instruments happens. A didgeridoo and clapping sticks plus the singing does send shivers down your spine.

Is it chocolate

Ragtag Daily Prompt Sunday: Chocolate

In my besties garden, she has a most beautiful Rose called a Chocolate Rose. Yes it does have a slight chocolate fragrance. I haven’t seen another or could find any further information. I just love the colour and scent.
