Sassafras

Are there any special smells that just turns your stomach? Mine is the smell of Sassafras. I HATE the smell of Sassafras. In fact the smell just makes me want to throw up. There are not many smells that makes me feel sick, but that is one smell I can not stand. I was reminded of that tonight when Sheila and I went to Kroger's. As you know from an earlier post she has strep throat. We went to Kroger to buy the special "make me feel good" tea that we both enjoy when we have a sore throat. It's Lipton's decaf cinnamon apple tea. MMMMMM it is so good. It's like a mouth full of joy. (wait, I think that slogan is already in use by another company). any way we picked up the tea to put it in our cart. you know the carts that always has one wheel that does not turn, or squeaks the whole time you are shopping. well this time we picked the perfect cart. ahhh here I go off onto another tangent. so we put it in the cart and what does my eyes fix on. yep you guessed it Sassafras tea. I immediately told my wife of my dislike of that smell (which she has heard about a million times before) and she then reminded me quickly that yep she has heard this story before. One day I will remember that when I don't like something I am very vocal about it and the people that share my world with me also knows it because they get to hear it a million times (or more). and speaking of carts that squeak. We were in Target one night and we had the cart that squeaked to high heaven. A smarter person would have returned the cart immediately to find one that didn't make such an annoying noise. but as I said a smarter person would have returned it. We went about our shopping for what seemed to be hours until my wife got the bright idea (I'm not being mean about that because it was a great idea). We headed for the automotive department and located a can of WD-40 and did target and it's guests a huge favor. We oiled that squeaky wheel. thus proving the phrase the squeaky wheel gets the oil.

Well it's now 12:45 and I am patiently waiting till 2 am to see if that atomic clock does it's job.

Blessings till I post again.
