Do you remember the smell of baking cakes in your Mother's kitchen? Does the aroma of roasting lamb take you back to your childhood days of family baked lunch on a Sunday? There are other smells that I recall, every so often I will walk past somewhere and suddenly get a wiff of some perfume or odour and suddenly I will be transported back to another time and another place and recall a situation or a person vividly - like they are right there in the room with me or I am reliving the event over again.
So is there a smell, a fragrance or perfume that brings back vivid memories for you? Is there an odour that triggers a memory for you when you come across it? Not all odours are pleasant ones; perhaps a particular odour brings back a memory of an unhappy incident. Whichever the case, your chalenge today is to blog about smells.
This is a layout I did about my Grandmother. She was a wonderful lady and I loved her dearly. To this day when I smell violets or perfume with a heavy violet base I immediately think of her - it is almost like she speaks to me across time.
