baw 4,360 Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 What smells or tastes takes you back to your childhood? I love the smell of fire, wood burning. Or after a spell of hot weather, the smell of the dust after a recent down pour. When I think of some tv programmes I watched as a kid, I can taste the food I must have eat while watching it. Like its a knockout, can't put my finger on it but when I think of it, I taste either semolina or rice pudding with nutmeg lol. Sounds weird eh lol. What about you, what smells or tastes take you back to your childhood? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
