Chr...Jay, I love the smell of honeysuckle as well.<br /><br />Chris, I've read some Faulkner, but I have never read The Sound and the Fury. Going to school in Mississippi, my English classes always made us read Faulkner and Welty. I never liked either one. Tennessee Williams is a totally different story, I love him. That's a great quote though.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05299122685163501819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5356114186987252972.post-81837120782063059842011-04-28T03:50:08.869-04:002011-04-28T03:50:08.869-04:00...don't know if it's funny or actually lo......don't know if it's funny or actually logical for me, but my first association with honeysuckle is textual - Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury, and Quentin obsessing over Caddy...

I loved picking the flowers and snapping off the base of the flower and sucking out the sweet nectar. I still love the smell of that lovely plant!<br />Perfect post!
