Unrelated

to news about Mom, Kent and I were waiting for the elevator to go home yesterday afternoon.
I said, "Wow, what is that smell?"
Kent replied, "I'm not sure but it's really strong"
"It smells like Cotton Candy"
"You're right, it does."
"Maybe it's coming from the nurse's break room"
I had noticed a woman sitting in a chair next to the window. I looked at her, I guess wondering if she was smelling the same thing.
She said, "It's my lotion"
"What?"
"I think you smell my lotion."
"Oh, what is it called?"
"Cotton Candy"
I'm at a loss here folks. Cotton Candy scented lotion. Not my first choice of fragrance. EVER.
Who comes up with this stuff?

  1. Dave Bigelow and I had this conversation about 20 years ago when Vanilla was the hot new fragrance - who wants to smell like food, regardless of what food it is?

  2. Almost as bad as smelling like food is burning a candle that smells like apple pie or oatmeal cookies.
