but i positively love the smell of fresh mowed grass!!!

we have some pretty steep hills that need mowing, that makes it a really tough job! i used to cut it myself up until about 10 or so years ago! but now we have a lawn service come one a week to mow it, the guy just left!!! smell that fresh cut grass!!!

Not crazy at all, Cars. New mown grass and hay...yum! It's fresh and clean.

DITTO its my fave smell as well, I used to have scented candles that smelt of fresh mowed lawn, a great pick me up in the winter.

You are not crazy... yet Cars hehehehehe

What do you reckon they put in those candles to make them smell that way? Grass maybe?:D

I like the smell too.I was thinking the same thing earlier while my hubby was mowing.



Minks,what an unusual smell for a candel. that would be a GOOD pick-me-up for the winter! :-6

ah bless you are good, I have mine to do tomorrow, I hope to get it done before the heat too, do you think the neighbors will be upset if I start at 5AM

I love the smell of cut grass,Buut more the smell of lavender.I have a hedge of lavender ,and each year at this time it is devine,The candles and sprays are not the same.

Oh, the lavendar would be lovely to trim. I bet it smells wonderful.

when we were children, my best girl & i bottled up water w/grass clippings. we walked door to door offering it for $5. we thought we were geniuses, but no one bought it.

so, yes, i whole heartedly agree, cars. the smell of lawn grass - and your type too, minks - rules.

I think it smell good when they mow it and then it rains.

Yes, you're crazy.



Gawds, you don't know how long I've wanted to say that!!!!!

you know chonsi, the fresh cut grass smell seems to smell better/fresher when "someone else" cuts it! :p:D







at least chonsi you gotta get a self propelled mower, it's a one time expense! it really makes mowing so much easier! they have them at target stores starting around $240.

I am grassless out here in the desert. You all are making me envious. I haven't rolled in a grass patch in years. Out here we have sagebrush and creosote bushes. (AKA greasewood) When it rains or it's going to, I can smell the scent the creosote gives off. A lot of people think it's noxious but to me it's the smell of the desert and it smells like home. When I've been gone for a while and I come over the river from California and I smell that river smell and the creosote bushes, I know I'm home safe.

Your crazy, and I love the smell of freshly cut lawn, and its easy to enjoy those simple things, especially when its a golf course & someone else is mowing.

I also love sea air, I live in the desert so I can smell water - am I crazy or what?
