Helen KellerSmell is a potent wizard that transports you across thousands of miles and all the years you have lived. The odors of fruits waft me to my southern home, to my childhood frolics in the peach orchard.

Even as I think of smells, my nose is full of scents that start awake sweet memories of summers gone and ripening fields far away.
