Usually I work on Mondays but Kelli wanted to switch days with me. I went early today to pick up some new merchandise. It included a bunch of vintage suitcases that had been stored for years and they're sooooo smelly. They're laying all over my driveway right now trying to air out. Years ago Martha suggested using vodka to get odors out of furniture so I'm thinking I might try it if fresh air alone doesn't work. And a vodka tonic might help me through the heat of the afternoon -- & make me smell better. Wish me luck.

Yum, g&t sounds good on a hot day. You can try crumpled newspapers inside the suitcases and/or putting a piece or two of charcoal inside. Sometimes vinegar erases odors. But likely the hot sun will do it the best. Good luck and love your hydrangeas!

You've got me laughing out loud! Mark asked what was going on and I said "Oh Jan's post!" I'll come over and join ya. With the tonic, not the suitcases. If I want to smell a smelly suitcase, I'll just go into the attic.
Your top photo is lovely! I think you should print and frame it. It really is that good!
Love ya hon!
