What did I smell today???
- Brett's minty fresh breath bright and early as he kissed me goodbye this morning.
- Emri's baby lotion (love that classic pink Jonhson & Johnson smell as I slather it all over her)
- clean laundry.....mmmmm, love the smell of fabric softener and dryer sheets
- Emri's diapers.....don't love them these days!
- I smelled those cinnamon scented pinecones in the store....by the Christmas decor! C'mon people, it's not even October yet!
- fresh baked banana cookies in my kitchen....not only do they smell delicious, they taste wonderful too!
- smelled the crisp Autumn air outside....and it made my nose cold
- Pantene Pro-V shampoo and conditioner in my hair....yes, I prefer the softness of my hair with this brand as opposed to some of the pricey salon stuff I've been trying!
- Rubber at the tire store....yes, I got a flat tire today while I was on my errands....it was more like a blowout and now we're the proud (unexpected) owners of 2 new tires. AWESOME.
- Wendy's smelled up the car on the way home from the tire store....since that happened just in time for me to not have time to prepare dinner.
- Right now I'm smelling that classic smell that you get once a year when you turn on the furnace for the first time in several months....you know, the smell of burning dust that has been collecting in the heat vents throughout the glorious Spring and Summer months. The smell that gets me a little sad because I know Summer is surely over.... We've gone a few days now where the A/C never kicks on and I've even put socks on myself during the day because I'm a little chilly. I make sure Emri is snuggly and warm all day in her long sleeves and pants....It's like I'm always in denial at this time of year! It takes me some time to mentally prepare for the "burning dust smell." I guess it's really here..... it could be worse though. Mom said it's snowing in Utah today.....

What a clever post! I can also smell the difference from summer to fall. It's funny how we're all so attuned to the change this time of year.
Don't you find it weird that we can use both the a/c and the heater within the same week here in Ohio?
I bought some slippers yesterday against the chill.
I turned on our heater the other day and Curt thought I was crazy! I'm glad to see that I'm not crazy and I'm not the only one turning on the heat.
We did the burning heater last night too! I was so afraid the house was going to blow up because the smell was so bad. Smells are my enemy now that I am pregnant. Everything I smell (or even imagine I smell) makes me wanna puke! Can't wait till #2 is here...
hahah, I just turned on my heat yesterday too and I totally smelled burning dust. Sorry about your tire. It ALWAYS sucks when it's time for any kind of car repair. Especially when mint.com sends you a million e-mail notifications about how much you've gone over budget on your auto repair. It was good to talk to you this morning. It really had been way too long.
P.S. banana cookies sound perfect right about now.
Dan turned on our heater two nights ago and I experienced the same sad smell. It is hard to let summer go! Portland air does not smell like fall like Utah air does...weird, but how cute are the knitted beanies Emri is wearing? I love them!
