Smells

With the touch of fall in the air, it was time yesterday for autumnal foods to begin. I made pot roast. When GW came in from outside, he said, "You can smell the pot roast all the way outside! It smells great."

What is it about some smells? They can get your saliva flowing so that you can almost taste the food. For awhile, both GW and I lived in the same area of the city although we did not know each other at that time. There was both a Wonder Bread factory and an FFV cookie factory nearby. The smells would waft across the atmosphere, assail my nostrils and make me run out and buy Hostess cup cakes! Every time they baked anything, I would gain a pound. I think the smell of something with rich chocolatey goodness gets me the most!
