    The smell of my mother cooking apricot cobblers every July.

    Cigarettes, it's bittersweet for me as my parents both smoked when I was growing up. I know I should hate it but I don't, it's somehow comforting and nostalgic even though I would never smoke myself.

  • mabreu

    "Right?" after a statement. I hate it when people say that. Are you asking for reassurance? That I agree with you? I am going to start using it as an opportunity to really question what they are saying.

    For Newsom, taxpayers are nothing more than an ATM. As he has driven out so many taxpayers, especially big ones, he has to create new ones. And since nobody moves to California on purpose anymore, he has to go after…

    All basketball gyms... all the lacquer in the world can't hide the sweat soaked into the wood or the odor that permeated every nook and cranny. I kinda liked that smell.

  • TPC

    I know exactly the smell. I took a writing class in SF years ago and one of the questions was, "What do you smell like?" I answered, "The smell of a raindrop just before it hits the pavement." Amazing synchronicity.

  • TPC

    Still love the scent of WD-40. The aroma of loosening metal parts in every garage in the 1970's. Fresh laundry and fresh baked goods are definitely up there. Freshly mowed lawn...all the good stuff.

  • The Fearless Spectator

    The smell of the fuel we used to power Cox model cars and airplanes. My grandfather was really into it, and stepped up the fuel mix to 40% Nitro. Man those things would scoot.

    Smalls are surer than sounds or sights To make the heart-strings crack. They bring those awful voices o' nights That whisper "Old Man, Come Back". That must be why the big things pass And the little things remain Like the…

    The dems are nothing more than babbling clowns on 3 letter new circuses. Why do these people feel the need to waste so much oxygen?

    Just think about what stores could open in that shopping center if Lucky wasn't there with their exclusive grocery contract.

    Talcum Powder.... it takes me back to my diaper days. Triggers fond memories of my binky... my rattle .... kicking back in my crib.

    Ok, one more "call me crazy" ... The overwhelming smell of the very first rain -- hitting the dirty street pavement. The very best of it only lasts a few minutes. I was in 2nd or 3rd grade when I…
