Love is a turn

of the head,
to a smell drifting by;

ask any dog.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

ghir originally picked this up somewhere in Hawaii, curious as any avid reader would be! ;)

She said it wasn't her thing but couldn't resist sending it on to another BC'er to give it a spin.

I too, thought it was hilarious and want to keep it going! So off it hops to spray people in Finland! :D

I was the lucky winner of Eponine38's Christmas Card Sweeps and I was spoiled with loads of cards and THIS!
I opened the envelope and got a shower of tiny glittering plastic mistletoe leaves. There was also a card and a separate wrapped hard thing... From HI77 - do I dare to open it?
A Paperback "Pick Me Up" au de cologne! I know I'm pretty desperate, but is it common knowledge? The odour was somewhat masculine, I dare not think who would pick me up if I went around using it... But certainly a good addition to all BC-products.

Oh, and there was more, a poem...

Twas The Month After Christmas

Twas the month after Christmas and all through the house
Nothing would fit me, not even a blouse.

The cookies I'd nibbled, the eggnog I'd taste.
All the Holiday parties had gone to my waist.

When I got on the scales there arose such a number!
When I walked to the store (less a walk than a lumber).

I'd remember the marvellous meals I'd prepared:
The gravies and sauces and beef nicely rared.

The wine and the rum balls, the bread and the cheese
And the way I'd never said "No thank you, please."

As I dressed myself in my husband's old shirt
And prepared once again to battle with dirt --

I said to myself, as only I can
"You can't spend a winter disguised as a man"! [Paperback au de cologne actually helps]

So -- away with the last of the sour cream dip,
Get rid of the fruitcake, every cracker and chip.

Every last bit of food that I like must be banished
Till all the additional ounces have vanished.

I won't have a cookie -- not even a lick.
I'll want only to chew on a long celery stick.

I won't have hot biscuits, or corn bread, or pie,
I'll munch on a carrot and quietly cry.

I'm hungry, I'm lonesome, and life is a bore --
But isn't that what January is for?

Unable to giggle, no longer a riot.
Happy New Year to all and to all a good diet!

There will be a Paperback like no other at the meet-up for all of you to comment, but it is on its way to Vienna next week.

I wouldn't use this cologne myself, too masculine 😁 But a fun thing to send around!

Journal Entry 6 by wingAnneliswing at Kerava, Uusimaa / Nyland Finland on Sunday, February 15, 2015
Quite an extraordinary Paperback!
This scent is not too feminine, I think. I might even use this - if I had it. I don't like those overly feminine, sweet and who knows what scents I meet sometimes in buses and trains.

Now that was an interesting Paperback :D

I guess everybody who wanted to comment Paperback have done so. It's tucked in my suitcase and we'll be off to Vienna tomorrow.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

Happy Birthday! Foot balsam would have been a better idea after the 5-hour Viennese sight-seeing tour you gave us. Or a mask from Venice, so nobody would have recognized you walking around with a tourist who had a penguin on her head!

Journal Entry 10 by Releanna at Wien Bezirk 23 - Liesing, Wien Austria on Wednesday, February 25, 2015
WOW! such a small book and sooooo smelly ;)
I rather like this note so I'll try it on before looking for another person with olfactory issues.


And I thought I was walking around with a cute penguin who had the misfortune to step into a woman and had to carry her around every since ...
