Joel and I like to go to breakfast. For me, it's one of my most favorite things we do together. It's a chance to spend some quality time together before our day gets hectic and besides that, I freakin' LOVE breakfast food. Start my day off with some artery clogging eggs benedict or some syrupy sweet pancakes and I am one happy camper.
So, one Saturday morning we end up in a local diner. It's nothing fancy..your typical diner atmosphere but BOY, did it smell CLEAN. We are sitting waiting for our food to come and every once I awhile I am getting this REALLY strong whiff of "cleaner".
Me: Wow, this place smells so clean.
Joel: "Huh?"
Me: Clean..it smells really fresh and clean in here. (Joel just looks at me like I'm stupid)
We continue our conversation and then BAM...there it is again.
Me: Don't you SMELL that?
Joel: Smell what? I don't smell anything except greasy eggs and the guy behind me who smells like cigarettes and stale beer.
Me: You are CRAZY..it smells Lemony Fresh in here! Like the waitress just wiped down all the tables with lemon fresh pledge or something.
I look around but there isn't any waitress polishing the tables or mopping the floor so I am baffled. Our food comes..I start to eat..take a drink of my water and...THERE IT IS AGAIN!!
Me: Come on Joel..you have GOT to smell that..it's such a strong lemony fresh odor.
Joel: Honey I think you are losing your mind.
Me: Look..I've got one honker on this face, thanks to genetics, and I KNOW what I smell and it smells like CLEANER!!
Once again, I look around and THEN I start to giggle...I start to laugh hysterically...and I say to my husband...
Me: Know what ELSE smells like lemony fresh cleaner?
Joel: I have NO IDEA..what?
Me: LEMONS!
Every time I took a drink of my water I would smell that damn cleaner...Guess what was in my water? Yep...slices of LEMON!
So Joel thinks I'm an idiot and now YOU can feel better about yourself...You're Welcome.
