mmmm, bacon!
I love the smell of bacon frying and coffee brewing…it reminds me of childhood, or vacation!
What are some of your favorite smells, and why?

Just this morning I was in the closet hanging up my husband’s shirt (the one he’d left draped on the elliptical, grrr), and I realized how much I love smelling his cologne after he’s left for work.

Here from Michele’s this time, to drool over that bacon (great shot!)
My favorite smells? Coffee, definitely, sweet night blooming blossoms, and the corn-chip scent of puppy feet.
March 25th, 2008 at 10:41 am
Where to begin? Coffee, roasting meat, gasoline, baking bread, men’s cologne…
One scent that I don’t necessarily like but brings back really good memories is the smell of asphalt on a really hot Florida day.

i totally dig bacon.
my favorite smells are lilacs when they are in their full fury. sunscreen, heat and ocean. my dogs after they’ve gone swimming and had a good dry in the sun (they smell all ozoney and really earthy). in the heat of summer, really piney woods that are very very dry have this amazing smell as you’re hiking through them.

Mmm that looks delicious.
Pancakes. Weekend breakfasts that my Dad would cook. My Mom’s perfume, White Diamonds, which makes me feel comforted.
March 25th, 2008 at 11:39 am
Your food photos are improving by leaps and bounds – this is absolutely delicious looking! Yummy!

Coffee brewing, my mom’s home made pasta sauce being made, sheets fresh out of the dryer and this last one will sound silly but mulch and grass….they make me think of spring!
March 25th, 2008 at 12:49 pm
Ok, now I’m hungry!
My favorite smells – vanilla makes me relax, chocolate just turns me on, the scents of a floral garden always makes me smile, fresh brewed coffee in the morning wakes me up, the smell of a newborn (clean diaper of course!) makes me reminisce but only for a short time, my hubby’s cologne always makes me feel safe and secure.

Ooooh…bacon is one of my favorites! But my most favorite smell is the ocean…walking along the shore with the breeze blowing in my face. Mmmmm……
March 25th, 2008 at 1:48 pm
Mmm. Love me some bacon.
I like the smell of summer rain, and cakes baking!
March 25th, 2008 at 4:22 pm
Mmm I agree, bacon is one of my favorites too! Fresh cooked bread, warm cookies too!
March 25th, 2008 at 5:29 pm
Bacon, Yummm, and coffee in the morning, most definitely!
I love the smell of dinner cooking in the oven, especially if I didn’t have to make it. lol.
Moving out of the kitchen, I still love the smell of fresh cut grass in the morning.
And smell of orange blossoms to the east, or the salt water to the west, which is why I live where I do.

Bacon would be at the top of my list. I LOVE it. Cinnamon rolls would be next and then coffee.
March 25th, 2008 at 8:33 pm
the dusty slighty musty aroma of a good library
the smell of woodsmoke
the top of a baby’s head
March 25th, 2008 at 9:27 pm
babies, campfires, how the earth smells after a spring rain, the smell of freshly fallen leaves, freshly bailed hay, and my coffee brewing in the morning (especially when I am really tired)
March 25th, 2008 at 10:13 pm
coffee brewing in the morning, the kids after bathtime, the air after a rain…
March 26th, 2008 at 12:31 am
Cilantro! It means guacamole is in my near future.
March 26th, 2008 at 7:57 am
Fresh cut Grass and the ocean — I just love earthy, naturally occurring smells although — bacon? that one works for me too
March 27th, 2008 at 11:19 am
Orange blossoms. Apple cider warming. That smell just after it snows. Clean baby. Vanilla.
