“Where in the world is she going with this?”Come on….fess up!
I know that’s what you’re thinking???
Well, here’s the deal.
Ana has reached the point where the “Baby Shampoo” just isn’t cutting it anymore.
I figured a good way to use up the hotel shampoos was to let her put a bit in with the baby shampoo every time she washes her hair.
(Ok….when did one of my kids get old enough to wash her own hair!!!
I can’t be old enough for that!)
But, this bottle was special.
Well, now I’m sure you think I’ve lost it!!!
It was from the Marriott in Guatemala City.
& it had a smell.
A smell that brought back a thousand memories!

Brought me back to a hotel room where bonding with new babies began.
Multiple kisses were placed on tiny little noses.
(Ruthie & Mommy the first few days on our pick-up trip.)
Friendships with new siblings were forged,
rolling around on the bed & the floor.
Oh……my! Who knew?!?-
such a trip down memory lane a smell of “Orange Ginger” can bring!
What does that for you?!

(& now, in the new spirit of decluttering….since I blogged about that wonderful smell-the BOTTLE is going in the trash!!! Aren’t you proud of me?!?)

Funny! I still have some of that shampoo and some lotion from the hotel in GC! I love the orange smell!
See! I knew someone would understand!!! I wonder if Bath & Body Works has that in regular stock. I think that's what the brand was.
I still have those. But what takes me back more is when i cook the guatemalan food and the smell...just smells like Guatemala.
Smell can be such a powerful memory jogger. But I'm very proud of you for decluttering [smile].

I know what you mean about the smell. I went out and bought new here in the states at Bath & Body. They still have the shampoo, and hand soap. I love it! It brings back memories every time I use it.
Oh, Angie!!! That is great news!! I might add that to my list of things to do tomorrow!
Oh! I remember that smell! I wish I would have kept those bottles (I'm about as opposite of a pack rat as you can get and tend to give/throw/recycle everything). Thanks for the reminder and I'm going to check Bath & Body Works the next time I'm there. Tara
