this is gonna sound really mean but...

Has anyone else noticed since they have stopped smoking how much some people smell? :confused: and im not just talking about smokers too! I know how bad we stunk but we thought smoking was a much better option. Imean getting on a crowded bus is murder at the moment..because im used to not being able to smell anything its like rediscovering my nose again and at times it isnt pleasent....

still it is light relief in a way and as long as i dont be rude and say anything i must be ok to find it a little funny...

i jus really hate to think what i smelt really bad when i smoked even though i did..urghhh..:mad:

[nsd_user663_2412]

lol, yeah getting your sense of smell back can be slightly off putting!

Last night I cooked pork chops for dinner and I seriously thought they were off, but hubby said they always smell like that when being cooked!! I couldnt eat them, so I guess that means no more pork for me, pork chops that is! LOL.

would you have liked it to be a random pick up?

Hopefully a very special lady that is very dear to me will be the test subject for my investigation as she also quit recently.....

[nsd_user663_2367]

People smell BAD... especially smokers.... except when they are smoking then they smell delicious....

Of course food smells really good... dont know if its the improved sense of smell or the unstoppable hunger.

My taste is more senitive too... an excuse to buy more expensive wine I guess

[nsd_user663_1704]

Oh my, How do you get everyone to tell their sex lives Boudee?!

I agree with the wine theory, I can't get away with £4 bottles anymore hehehehehehe

[nsd_user663_2406]

£4?? its a long time since I paid that much!! :eek:

Ugh in Pennsylvania all wine/liquior is sold by the state in govt owned stores... you can imagine the slecton and cost this system provides.:mad:

I love that in France it seems you can always find a decent bottle of wine good bread and cheese. Alas with the state of the $ I think my traveling days are over for now.

[nsd_user663_2406]

Thats a shame, I love traveling. Maybe now you have saved some money on the ciggies, you could manage a trip over here now.

Didn't realise that alcohol was only served by govt shops :confused:

True.. my goal on the house and relocation from NYC to Philly was to make a more established and affordable life so I am not existing only to pay rent... not smoking will help... one of my goals is to be able to travel again.

Alcohol sales are regulated by state. PA is one of the worst. Wine and Liquor are sold only in the state stores. They are wretched. There are a few "Premium" stores that are a bit better. Beer can be purchased by the case or keg from a distributor or you can buy a six pack from a bar/restruant "to go". Bizzare I know.. I blame the Puritans

Uhhh this room stinks! texyt.com/files/Image/cleop...

[nsd_user663_2436]

The sense of smell is amazing, must be said...

On day 2 I went into college and my (old!) smoking buddy came in and sat next to me...I love her to bits but she stank! And yesterday I went to the studio I work in and all the girls were on a fag break, the corridor was almost suffocating. I knew it smelt bad, but not that bad at all.

On the plus side I think I might treat myself to bacon tonight. If ever there was a smell to fall in love with, its bacon...

[nsd_user663_2318]

MMMMMMMMMMMMMM bacon!

I luv bacon!!! YUM!!!

day 40~

[nsd_user663_1744]

My mother in law (who sadly died 2 yrs ago) was also a vegetarian. She used to get vegatrian bacon (I think it was m ade out of soya or something) :)

[nsd_user663_2406]

There is no such thing as imitation bacon, it cannot be copied!! Denise is veggie too, and she tried the quorn bacon, which she didn't like at all. She loves their sausages though

[nsd_user663_1744]

Don't they make mince out of quorn as well???

[nsd_user663_2406]

They do, its ok as a chilli or cottage pie. I am not as keen on the rest of their stuff though. Denise likes the fajita strips, chicken "style" pieces etc. I like home grown bacon, and eggs - yummy yummy!

[nsd_user663_2436]

Haha, bacon always starts a conversation. Sorry to all the folks who are trying not too eat too much too!
