One of my favorite things about my walk home from work is the smell of Jasmine in the air. Along the pathway, someone planted a beautiful Jasmine plant and the smell of the flowers is intoxicating. It reminds me of honeysuckle.

Smells always rekindle memories for me. Some of my favorite smells include:

• Lilacs (my favorite smell EVER!)
• Fancy
• Fresh, really ripe strawberries
• Rain
• Freshly baked bread
• Oak Creek Canyon (yes, it has a very special smell)

Incidentally, honeysuckle reminds me of my little sister, Jess.

So, there's my justification for the Jasmine plant now growing on my porch! :-)
