Random thought while walking through the Towson mall on a Sunday morning

Three things that smell better (some would say even better) than they taste: ...
Coffee, popcorn, chocolate chip cookies.

Amen on the fact that popcorn smells better than it tastes. I remind myself of that fact every time I walk into a movie theater.

If we're going by smells in the mall, add to that soft pretzels and cinnamon buns (mind are much better).

And how about those pretzels they sell in small kiosks?

The way the posts are going, our crack research team is going to have to investigate whether Rosebud and Dahlink were separated at birth. Right after the Voodoo Pork Owl Meat G[whatever] issue is settled.

I was thinking RokChik was Voodoo Pork. EL

Or the new car smell.

I've said it before--Rosebud and I must have been separated at birth. I expect to meet my long-lost twin when we unveil ourselves! Then my mother will have some 'splainin to do.

VD Pork: Shazbat! not a good moniker for a nice Jewish girl. Rabbi Lieberman wouldn't be cookoo for voodoo.

Of course *mall* coffee and popcorn don't smell as good as they taste. You need to make your own popcorn, with real butter to get the good stuff.

As for coffee, roast your own, or get coffee from High Grounds in Highlandtown or Bluebird. Then it tastes right.

As for malls...I broke down and got a Cinnabon. Ye gods and little fishies, was that thing aweful!!!!!
