Odors


There are smells that one just cannot forget. They may not be particularly fragrant. But neither can they be said to be very odious. 
They are simply odors. Interesting ones! 
One of my favorites is Asparagus Eau de Toilet. 
No misspelling there. 
Like  Dr. Juvenal Urbino in Gabriel Garcia Marquiez’ Love in the Time of Cholera, I take  secret pleasure in the smell of my own urine laced with asparagus.
 
I usually like them grilled. Photo credit: seriouseats.com

  1. What an intriguing blog!! Very thought-provoking, too! That's always been one of MY favorite things about eating asparagus, as well.

  2. It can be a shocker, especially if you forgot you ate asparagus
