2. Every chance I get. This morning my entire yard smelled of sweet honeysuckle.

3. About 5 minutes ago when I stepped outside to admonish the squirrels.

4. I’ve honestly never enjoyed floral scents.

5. I stopped about 5 mins ago but they haven’t actually blossomed yet. I planted some orchids and sunflowers and planted out into the garden.

6. I do it every day. Small, simple things make me so happy and alive. It’s charachter and personality building. Crazy how such a small thing can make your day.

7. Every time I walk my dog! There’s tons of honeysuckle in our neighborhood and the smell makes me so nostalgic I can’t help but stop to take it in.

8. The supermarket yesterday, I saw some beautiful deep red Peonies and wondered if they smelled like the Bath and Body Works bodywash.

   They didn’t.

9. Yesterday. Basically every time I’m outside with my son he wants us to smell them. He *loves* flowers and wants everybody to enjoy them.

10. If I’m not in a rush and there are flowers, I’m smelling those fuckers

11. I love smelling and giving away the Rose’s that my father planted
