Over at The Happiness Project, Gretchen Rubin recently posted about a resolution of hers — “Take a Field Trip” — where she describes a recent visit to a perfumerie in New York to seek out good smells and cultivate some happy-making fragrances. It’s a little touch that can make life a little happier, and it’s got me thinking about how making (and, ideally, sticking to) some resolutions isn’t just for January 1. Life in the spring and summer feels so different to me than it does in the fall and winter, so it’s only fitting that I should have a different set of ambitions and projects.
