Tomato leaves when you water them.
Air popper (not that microwave imposter!) popcorn.
I want to know yours!

Wood smoke.
Clothes off the line.
My kids/hubby when they've been outdoors.
Horse's when you bury your face in their necks.
The house when you have a live pine tree up for Christmas.
Smell of rain before it starts........then after.
Freshly cut wood - especially pine.
And last but not least - book pages.
And (I only remember this as a kid, I don't think it's 'done' nowadays. Any of you older gals remember this?) alfalfa burning. Oh the many, many nights as a kid going to sleep with that sweet smell wafting into my bedroom!

The scent of freshly fallen snow.
The first rainstorm in the spring.
Newborn babies.
Fresh coffee in the morning.
Earl Grey Lavender Tea.
My Grandmother's Aunt Hannah's sugar cookies baking in the oven.
Homemade bread.
Basmati Rice cooking on the stove.
The clean scent of Fels Naptha.

Oh my. I like all those smells.
I think my very favorite of all is my husband's smell. He smells like a MAN who has been working... I will put up with it because I love him, and he has been working! Usually for me!
