Experimenting with Scents...

It began as a simple Target run.  Holly (my roommate) and I made a detour to the dollar section to see if there were any neat little gadgets.  We found these tiny glass bottles of scented oil with little wooden sticks to put inside to diffuse the smell around the room.  We each bought one scented like pears and grabbed the last vanilla to hide in Ben and Callen's room.  Holly and I placed ours in our wardrobes and soon our clothes and room smelled wonderfully of pear.  Callen did not take too kindly of having vanilla smell in his room, but Ben loved it.  There was one problem, the little jars lasted a week.  Fall break found Holly and I once again searching for a scent for our room.  We found little devices that would work and I picked out several scents.  When we returned to the dorm, we found Ben waiting for us.  Fearful we would return from fall break with a girly scent like raspberry (his example, not mine) he had already picked out a scent.  Turns out he had found the same little device only his smelled like clean laundry.  Currently, Holly and I think we have found our perfect scent and our room smell lightly of vanilla.

Hi Honey

Don't underestimate the power of aromatherapy...I am really fond of lavender to help relax. Glad you're doing well (talked to your Mom last night) and had a good (but too short break)!
Love,
CAL
