Butcher's shops. I know it sounds horrible, but it reminds me of when I was tiny and my mum would take me round the shops with her. She shopped for each meal individually. How things change...

-- most anything wafting out of the kitchen. Nothing like home-made food. Steaks or roast or turkey. Soup. Cookies. Loaf of bread. Apple pie. -- fresh, salty sea air -- smell of woodsmoke - from someone's chimney or even campfire .. if with that "tinge of something" that makes it not "smoke" but "homey". (not explaining that one very well! lol) -- when I was a kid? It was the smell of my "blankie"!!! LOL -- fresh coffee brewing or even the smell of coffee beans or ground coffee. Shoot - just COFFEE. :)

VANILLA PLUS== I BUY CANDLES THAT HAVE THEIR OWN CERTAIN SMELLS AND PUT A COUPLE OF DOZEN IN EACH ROOM. I PUT 2 VANILLA ON EACH SHELF IN EACH CABINET IN THE KITCHEN AND WHEN YOU OPEN UP ANY, IT SMELLS REAL GOOD. I BELIEVE IF YOU HAVE GOOD SMELLS IN YOUR HOME, YOUR MORE INTELLIGENT AND MAKE EVERYTHING ELSE WORK BETTER.
