Sugar smell...

  • AHHH!!!! We had gotten some kettlecorn over the weekend, and I had thought my husband threw it away on monday when we cleaned out stuff and replenished with the phase 1 stuff.....well.....my son just came home from school pulled it out and asked if he could have some....I said yes, and he starts eating it. I told him (mind you, he's 9 years old) that he had to go away and not eat it in front of me. He did...but now that's all I can smell in this darn house! I want to just go throw it in the garbage! I won't cave on having it, but still don't like having the smell in here...makes me want something now. AHHHHHHHH!!! Would it be horrible if I did throw it away? Yesterday, I made them finish the last of the ice cream so that it was gone, I just hate to throw away good food. KWIM. But..............
  • Can you go spray around the house with Lysol or an air freshener? Sometimes even popping a stick of sf gum in your mouth will settle those cravings.

    Hang in there, and good luck!
  • i'm good now, took a shower lol but will keep that in mind in the future!
  • Awesome job! Kettle corn is soooo addictive, you can't stop once you start, you definately made the better choice!
  • Glad it has passed and that you're feeling better! Some smells are more enticing than others and I think the k.corn probably rated pretty high on the "drive you crazy" list.
  • I always light a candle when DW has something I won't indulge in. It helps. The shower idea does too!
  • Maybe pop a mint and light a candle? Or eat something that is sf if you must? I don't know. *hugs* I'm sorry darlin. The stuff does smell fab, so I can see how you would struggle.
