Scratch and Sniff . . .

I think the Christmas spirit might be eeking its way into my mind and body. Yesterday's trip to Costco for live wreaths and greenery resulted in two things -- First, scratches all over my hands and second, said hands smelling like evergreen - a smell that even this Scrooge cannot resist.

I felt glad when I came home and opened the trunk of the van and that pine tree smell swirled around my head like a Christmas halo. I came inside, got the rest of Christmas out and begged the Hubby to lug the tree up from the basement.

Thank you pine tree smell - for being my favorite in the Scratch n' Sniff books of my childhood, and for being my favorite today. You were just what I needed!
