Garlic…The Everlasting Scent

I had to do two things yesterday for homework:

1) Peel garlic for today

2) Engrave my knives. I will get into more detail about my knives later on, but for now, just know that they are AWESOME!

My hands smell like garlic. Overpowering garlic.

There were many reactions on the subway this morning. Some people ran to the other end of the car, some snuggled in close to me, and I even got a few sniffs pointed in my direction. I promise, I took a shower and scrubbed my hands like mad. I heard if you put lemon juice on your hands it makes the smell go away, but I did not because I actually love the smell and figured it would go away by tomorrow anyways!

It’s “bring your garlic to work day.”

Russian woman have a reputation for smelling like garlic.  If you eat enough of it, you actually sweat the smell.  So if you have your eye on a Russian cutie, take my advice, eat a lot of garlic, go to the gym, then immediately find a way to see him.  He won’t be able to resist your aroma.  I once ate all the garlic from a 40 clove garlic chicken and guess who snagged that Russian cutie the next day? True story.
