Capturing That Good Ol' Summer Feeling

0
10 June 2008

The scent that triggers my mind to my idea of the ultimate summer is that of coconut. Blame it on years of my doting mother insisting that I slather on sunscreen from a brown bottle with the unmistakable coconut scent. I swear I wanted to lick it off of my arms, it smelled so good.

Sense of smell is the most powerful sense we have, especially when it comes to trying to jog a memory (which is an odd phrase). Even if you’re stuck in the city behind a desk full of papers where the massive ‘out’ box is never going to be taller than the ‘in’ box, you can still find a way to experience a divine ‘toes-in-the-sand’ summer feeling by dabbing on a coconut lotion. I’m almost positive it will ‘up’ your mood. (Another mood-lifter is sneaking some spoonfuls of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream during lunch. I love the banana-flavored Chunky Monkey.)
