Or that smells can remind us of things?
Maybe "weird" isn't the right word.
Maybe "amazing" is.
Or "awesome".
Every time I look at this picture, it makes me think of Strawberry Shortcake and the one doll I had: Lemon ...something. (Or was it Apricot something. Or, wait, maybe Peach? I just remember she wore white.)
And I can *just about* smell her.
Just from looking at a picture.
*D'you know the smell I mean? Just a hint of plastic underneath the sweetness?

God yes! But my mother never let me have Strawberry Shortcake dolls. It's probably a good thing as I'm now grown up and edumacated enough to know that smell is VOCs offgassing from plastics and is BAD.
Your picture reminds me of scratch-n-sniff stickers. Like the Strawberry Shortcake ones I had. :)
They still exist - those stickers - we hand them out to the kids we see. Now I understand why I love them more then they do, it's nostalgia.
Oh, yes. Smells remind me of things/ people very frequently. Cool, I think.
EB, good thing I didn't sniff it too much then eh? ;)
Likalia, I had the awesomest sticker collection!!!!! Woooo hooo! And I loved scratch and sniffs, but also puffy ones, 'member?
Jenn, nostalgia's a weird one, but fun!
Alexandreena, it really is pretty cool... :)
totally know the smell, you described it so well in your footnote, it came back to me!
This has inspired a similar post! Should be up in a little while. Thanks for the great idea!
Lexi, that's so cool! :D
Yay Laura :)
I love that we can remember smells and that just one smell can bring back a memory so strong that you swear it happened yesterday.
Hope you are well!
It's pretty awesome!
And, yes, I'm doing well. Thanks :)
