What's That Smell??

Friday, Gary and I were sitting quietly, in the livingroom, both at our computers. It was about eight am, the dogs were both taking their morning naps and all was quiet. I was on a corporate fast with my church as we are fasting and praying over a missionary's wife to be healed of cancer, along with some other things. So, as we sat here, slowly but surely, I kept smelling something that resembled chicken. I didn't say anything thinking maybe it was something in my trash but why would I just now be smelling it and why would it smell good? Was it cuz I was fasting? God? This is weird, I thought. I kept working on my autoresponder stuff on line, I mean, I was on line for a reason, not just messing around. LOL!

The longer I sat the stronger the smell became until now it was smelling like a full fledged chicken dinner...stuffing, chicken, gravey, the whole nine yards and I couldn't figure it out but it was smelling really good. Finally, I said something out loud.

"I smell chicken or something!"

Gary looked at me funny knowing full well, I did NOT cook chicken or anything because I was fasting. He said, "I smell something too, what is it?"

All of a sudden it hit me like a 2x4 between the eyes! It was the dogs' food! When I fed them this morning, they were almost out of their rice mix, so I started boiling carrots and celery, peas, green beans and apples! No wonder it smelled so good! I need to start using my timer. LOL!

LOL ... that is soo funny. I did something similar to that too. I was baking brownies and I was in the other room (on the computer) and I didn't hear the timer. Well, I started smelling chocolate and was wondering what in the world I walked out into the living room and then it hit me, I ran to the oven and took them out. Luckily they didn't burn and we had Brownies a al mode that night with a good laugh.

I have a new blog check it out and let me know what you think! Keep in mind it is still in the works.
