ON THE BACK BURNER

My best sense is my sense of smell. I can smell a change in the weather, I can smell rain,the scent of Colorado when I am in Florida and the scent of New Orleans when I am in Florida. I wish that I could hear as well as I can smell. I always joked that my far vision was so good that when we lived in the Chicago area, I could see to Milwaukee. Now, I'm not so sure. I made some horseradish last night and I can tell you the scent was potent. When I lifted the top of the Ninja, my eyes watered and when I inhaled,I shouldn't have. On the other hand, I seem to not be able to wear perfume. The scent doesn't stay with me. But I can smell a signature perfume on different people and tell when they are in the area. In fact, if that person hugged me or gave me a kiss on the check, I will smell that scent for hours. At one time I tried wearing a rose based cologne. It was so heavy, that I couldn't stand me. Now, I go for the soap and water smell. I figure that works best when I want to really smell the roses.. The real ones, that is.
