Just one of my favorite things about baking is the fact that the smell lingers in the home for hours plus hours after I have finished… I spent most of the day finally working on a pear cobbler.
- I picked bushels plus bushels of peaches off the trees in the backyard and I was desperate to do something special with them.
I decided to make many pear cobblers to take down to the church, however they were giving out food to local residents affected by the hurricane plus flash floods. I carefully set out many weird aluminum pans plus started to cut, slice, plus arrange the pear slices on the bottom of the pan. I covered the pear slices with my special cobbler mixture plus put them in the oven to bake, then after 10 or 15 minutes, the home started to smell like peaches plus vanilla. After 1 hour, I carefully removed the boiling warm mess from the oven. They looked amazing resting in a row on the table, and even after I gave up making cobbler, the smell of vanilla plus peaches stayed in the house. The ventilation system carried the smell from the family room to the dining room plus then the dining room to the family room. That’s an amazing thing about having a closed ventilation system inside of your home. The odor stays trapped in the ventilation HVAC duct plus then they are distributed throughout the house. This turns out to be a really nice thing when the home smells like it is pear cobbler, sugar cookies, or peanut butter fudge; Of course, when the home smells like a wet dog, I wish the people I was with and I had ductless heating plus air.
