Memories....oh sweet sweet Memories :) Nothing
is more memorable than a smell. One scent can be unexpected, momentary
and fleeting, yet conjure up a childhood summer beside a lake in the
mountains; another, a moonlit beach; a third, a family dinner of pot
roast and sweet potatoes during a myrtle-mad August in a Midwestern
town. Smells detonate softly in our memory like poignant land mines
hidden under the weedy mass of years. Hit a tripwire of smell and
memories explode all at once. A complex vision leaps out of the
undergrowth.
