    Oh boy all . . . did this open a can of
    worms.  *lol*  I think I went a little crazy on this one . .
    and I’m so very sorry that its going to take your browsers 3 years to open this
    post . . but there are a TON of pictures . . . so maybe its worth the wait?? Hehe

     

    So here we go . . . smell this!!

    First off . . I love flowers.
    These didn't have much of a scent . . but I discovered this lovely . .
    valley of flowers behind my apartment building.  So I had to get
    the camera out. . .


    this is just a bonus pic . . . cause I thought it was cool.

    This is walking towards the 'valley'  . .


    hmmm I love the beginning hints of fall color . .


    a peek into the valley . . what a surprise when I saw this!


    look at all the lovely colors . . .  this is the floor of the
    valley.  Covered in these yellow flowers.  I was even more
    surprised when I saw what flower it was . .


    how incredibly sweet are they?


    more darling flowers mixed in with the yellow . ..

    Ok . . now onto the actual Photo Challenge . .


    mmmmm . . chocolate.  (there are two missing now!  teehee!)


    This is a Glade Scented Oil Candle.   flavor?  Wild Orchid.  YUM
    curious?

    on the right . . the most gorgeous lemon scented soap I've ever
    found.  I opened the box, and found bliss.   I stood in
    the store for 10 min. just smelling.
    on the left . . . a Body Shop oil burner.  With Strawberry and
    Violet scented oils.  Also very yummy!  I have a bad habit of
    forgetting the candle is lit though, and I end up burning the oil to
    the glass dish.  heh.  But still!  Yum!!


    My favorite candles . . Glade 3n1  . . in Starlit Garden.  SO lovely.


    and saving the best for last . .
    This is Bath and Body Works Jasmine Vanilla lotion and linen
    spray.  Possibly my most favorite scent EVER.  I have a
    candle in this flavor too!  (you saw that in my photo challenge
    posting.)

    Yum.  Yum Yum Yum!

    Also
    . . I have to make one quick bragging note . . . LOOK at how reflective
    all my wood surfaces are!!!  Yay! hehe buffed to a SHINE. 


    I hope everyone had fun.  I know I sure did! 
    now its bedtime!  nite nite everyone!

  • I see you really enjoy the smells of nature!

  • Dude, we are so on for Syracuse, don't worry!  Things are pretty crazy here, and I'm a little worried about getting enough practice in before then (have you seen the list???), but I'm sure it will settle down a little as I get into the flow more.  Anyway, hope you haven't been attacked by any more bugs!

  • I think we have the same "tastes" in smell

  • actually it was the first time I had been to one...I had gone to a demelish derby not to long before that...but I grew up in my uncle's auto shop...I love the smell of cars...the gas, the oil, the fumes...everything!!!

  • Wildflowers and chocolate, two of the very best!

  • snifffffffffff Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ! Yummy post!

  • I just had to come back for one more whiff of those cookies!

  • Lots of great smells here. The cookies are my favorite!

  • http://www.musicgalore.net you get the idea if I spelled it wrong lol.
    I still love your site! XD

  • Yeah, they remapped the site. Must of got rid of the classical. I will post you if I ever get another site for it. mmmk later!

  • So did you get that expresso machine working? I don't know if there is a Trader Joes in your area or not but they have really good beans. Hope you are enjoying it!!

  • Hey!  Well how the hell have you been?  .  Since I got this new computer, I haven't been able to sit down to use it much.  Those are beautious pics there!  I especially like the 2nd and 3rd ones down.  They seem the way I remember Ohio looking like.  That was refreshing, so thanks!  Oh, but maybe not quite as refreshing as those cookies and lotions!  At first glance, I thought those lotions (because of the way the bottles look) were either some kinda old medical tonics of sorts that you'd see in an old dentist's office, or were like some of those sodas like Sasparilla in those old looking bottles - I believe that the glass bottles can bring an ambience to drinking a beverage like Sasparilla, Root Beer, or Birch Beer.  Now please play me something, and while you're doing that, I'm gonna steal a cookie! 

  • love the bonus pics! and jasmine vanilla is my favorite scent from there too!

  • What a great post for the challenge. The pic of the chocolate chip cookies made me drool!
