Take Time to Stop and Smell the Roses
Today I have been very sensitive to even the slightest smells.
It started when a stinky person got on the stair master next to me at the gym. I promise I’m not just being mean, they really were stinky. You know the type… Drenched shirt, dripping hair, sweat on the floor next to their machine…
After completely 20 minutes of a stinky stair master workout, I took my sweat session to the treadmill and the elliptical to finish it out.
I came home and leashed up Sadie for our morning walk.
Ready for Walkin'
Thankfully the air on our walk smelled fresh and crisp. We even enjoyed the sweet smell of citrus when we passed a grapefruit tree.
After our walk I took a shower and was one again overwhelmed by a new smell. Last night we ran out of our girly moisturizing soap with aloe for soft and silky skin, and Ryan broke into his “man soap.”
Kiehl's Man Soap
He received the “Ultimate Man Body Scrub Soap” as a gift for Christmas. It smells really good… but like a guy. So now I smell like a guy. A good smelling guy… but a guy nonetheless. Sexy, no?
On to the last strong smell…
As I was blow drying my hair, Sadie came in to keep me company and did a little stretch before heading into the bedroom to watch me complete my morning routine from our bed. About 1.5 seconds later, I realized that mid-stretch Sadie let out a stink bomb!
Our bathroom smelled like a mix of man and flatulence… but I guess those two smells go together pretty frequently anyway.
What is your favorite smell?
I love the smell of:
- Cinnamon candles
- Freshly baked cookies
- The beach
- Sadie (her fur, not her gas)
- Ryan
- Freshly baked bread
- Cinnamon rolls
- Pizza
Breakfast
After Sadie’s gas attack, I was ready for some good smellin’ stuff in my life again. Enter breakfast!
Today’s breakfast included cinnamon lavash chips that I baked in the oven using a Joseph’s lavash bread. I dipped them in yogurt pudding made with Chobani Greek yogurt and a spoonful of butterscotch pudding mix.

Ha! You know, if you have a good smelling nose, that could mean something:) Ha!
Anyway, I am jealous of the fact that you even get to walk by grapefruit trees. I live in IA, so we have none of that….I’ve never even seen one!
Sadie is the cutest! How old is she?? Fave smell would be lavender vanilla- I have a sheet mist in that scent and it’s so relaxing! Citrus scents are such good pick me ups for the morning though.
I love the smell of lime juice. When i squeeze a lime, I sniff my fingers all day!
I love the smell of baked goods and coffee!!!
I love the smell of my dog too! Plus anything baking…garlic and onions cooking in olive oil…and the ocean! Not all at once, of course. 🙂
LOL The first pic of the chimps made me giggle…thanks needed that:)
I love alot of different scents depending on the time of year. Lately I love the smell of this body lotion sold at Bath and Body works…Vanilla ginger ahhh but they only sell it in the fall collection:( might have to hoard some next season)
have a great friday
LOL! My Diesel has one of the stinkiest butts around. And it seems like he purposely comes near me, farts and then wanders into the other room. Oh dogs are so funny! I love the smell of cinnamon, cookies and coffee.
i love the smell of birthday cake! and sadie is so photogenic 🙂
