Sorry for the #nonbookrelated post. I need to vent.
My mother, who knows that I have a sensitive nose and a childhood trauma involving goat and sheep cheese, had this lovely Christmas surprise package sent to me.
I was nearly sick just opening the packet.
Now, I'm trying to find a lovely home for these goodies. Have already asked a few friends, hut haven't heard back from them yet.
Vinjii Omg. That should have been sent to me. I love these cheeses 😍 but I get the nose thing. I‘m super sensitive to smells as well. Especially soaps and perfumes. I‘m sorry this came to your house 😱😰 5y
JoScho 🙁 5y
Velvetfur I'm totally with you on the goat's cheese thing, the smell of it makes me feel sick too. Also, all too often the 'vegetarian option' includes goat's cheese as if we all love it, haha! I hope you can give it away soon x 5y

Cinfhen Oh, I get it!! Certain scents in a cheese shop can have me doubled over. Sometimes mom‘s mess up😝#BooksSmellDelicious 5y
RaimeyGallant My mother still can't remember that anytime she sent PB&J in my school lunch, I didn't eat. 5y
alisiakae I‘m sorry. 😔That‘s kind of like my mother, who gave us a big bag of citrus this year as a holiday gift, when I‘ve never liked oranges and I can only eat a small amount of citrus because of the acidity. I think she was mad that I asked for no gifts this year. 🤷🏻♀️ (edited) 5y
Lauram Yikes! I liked the picture before I read your statement. I hope you can redistribute soon. 5y
julesG @Vinjii @JoScho @Velvetfur @Cinfhen @RaimeyGallant @4thhouseontheleft - - - my son just came home from school and asked why the kitchen smelled of old trainers 👟. 😂😂😂 5y
julesG @Lauram Thanks. 5y
AmyG I‘m sorry. You would think she would know better. :( (edited) 5y
Stacy_31 Oh no, I'm sorry! It sounds like something my father would do, with those issues in mind. That stinks (literally. 😉😉). Hope you can find someone to take it off your hands, quickly! 5y
Redwritinghood Oh no! Sorry about that. Too bad I don‘t live near you, though, as I would take it off your hands. I love cheese. 5y
BookNAround Oh dear! Nothing can stink like cheese too. I do adore cheese so this would be an ideal gift for me but it‘s definitely not for everyone and I‘m sorry your mother didn‘t think harder before sending it to you. 5y
OrangeMooseReads Oh no! That‘s terrible. Hope somebody takes them quickly so you don‘t have to have them in your home making you feel ill. 5y
tjwill 😕 5y
IamIamIam Oh no!!! Lol, my mom's the same way... every few months, we'll have a conversation that makes me think we've just met! 5y
