Sometimes the little things in life really are the best. Tonight, I kept smelling my fingers, I couldn't figure out what they smelled of, but it was a sort of weird semi-stink, without being too too awful. Finally after a couple of hours, I remembered that I had smooshed up some garlic with my hands just before dinner, and suddenly the smell made sense. Knowing why your fingers smell that way: It's a simple pleasure, but one that a lot of us take for granted in this busy world we live in. Next time you know why your fingers smell that way, don't just take it for granted, enjoy it.
