What is that SMELL????

Post by doublemom2 »

We were out today working on our new patio, and my husband kept asking what that horrid smell was? Between neighbor's cats using our yard as a litter box and our next door neighbor's septic system failing, we get some rather interesting smells in our yard (unfortunately!)

I just looked sweetly at DH and asked him if he saw anything interesting blooming nearby, and to follow the swarm of flies. He saw the dracunculus blooming and just cracked up! He still can't understand why I want to have a plant that smells like rotten meat LOL!!!!

And here I thought your post was referring to Doris J's post which is, at least for the time being, just below this one! :lol: :lol: Must say, I'm right there with your DH on this one, Andi. :wink:
