Vick vapor rub in an old coffee can on my grandmothers stove. Mothballs in all the closets and green peanuts boiling in the fall.

Freshly turned Ga clay, pine, some perfume my kg teacher wore, the smell of bass on the bed.

My grandmothers homemade biscuits, country ham & redeye gravy. Her fried chicken was the best I've ever had, nobody else's even comes close.
The smell of gunpowder when Dad used to take me out in the country to shoot cans next to a big creek.
The way my Dad smelled when he got home from work at the Delta Jet Base at Hartsfield, he was a jet engine mechanic in those days.
Krispy Kreme doughnuts when Dad would stop when the "Hot Doughnuts" sign was lit.
