The smell of moth balls remind me of playing in my great grandmother's attic when I was a kid. The scent of freshly cut grass also reminds me of my childhood. I used to live next door to a little league baseball field.

We got some weird, off-brand coffee the other day and the instant I tasted it, it took me back to Belize. It had that exact silty bitter and weak taste. And, while I don't necessarily love the taste, I'll keep drinking it just because it makes me happy.FreeFlyinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17804129574044893085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6590463212990140008.post-82919710696476192282011-03-08T10:16:35.944+05:302011-03-08T10:16:35.944+05:30There isn't a particular smell that reminds me...There isn't a particular smell that reminds me of anything in particular, but some foods do.

I have never had that happen. But, I am soothed by the smell of the ocean (but only when accompanied with the sight and sound also).
