    Todays challenge is to honor our reigning champion u/RedMosquitoMM in some way or another. As we probably all did I went back and looked at some of his posts last year and what better way to do that than by participating in #FOF today. We all remember that he won the Games but also placed second in the FOF contest just showing his complete dominance! I have quite the sus nose so this isn’t my normal thing. But for our champ I’m all in!

    Cella: Wow what an absolutely incredibly hard scent to paint with words but I’ll give it a try! Imagine yourself sitting on a hill in the deep heart of Italy. The wind quietly blowing through the trees as birds sing sitting in the branches. You get up and start strolling into town, passing by the sea as the salty water sprays you. The market is bustling with people selling their wares, overwhelming you with choices of olive, spices and every fruit you can imagine. The sellers are calling out to you trying to catch your attention but you are on a mission now, late, behind schedule.

    Finally you reach your nonna’s house and the wave of roasted nuts hits you the instant the door opens. Tantalizing you as you follow your nose into the kitchen and find your nonna bent over the open oven pouring her love into her baking. “Pistachio?” You ask. Her response is as simple as it is brutal: “Almond you idiot!”

    And that is Cella.

    Todays #photocontest theme of the day is #Vehicles I couldn’t pick just one mode of transportation so I just went for them all!
