What do you smell?

Mirah

I love you
Maybe nothing.

As air enters the nose, it triggers certain nerves. These nerves bring information to a part of the brain called the olfactory bulb. That information then goes to the part of the brain that creates our sense of smell. Loss of smell may result from damage to the lining of the nose or nasal passages

Other causes may be injury to the nerve that carries smell sensation from the nose to the brain or harm to parts of the brain that process smell

Other possible causes are infections, toxins, and medicines.

Smell and taste are part of an overlapping sensory system. "Flavor" comes almost entirely from the nose. Smell and taste are directly related because they both trigger the same nerves. Taste receptors on the tongue and nerves in the nose work together to tell us about the air we breathe and the food we eat.
 
Very cool. It's one of the reasons you know you have Covid rather than the common cold or flu.
 
I'm glad I don't have covid. At least not yet.
Had possible contact last Sunday w/ someone.

Tonight I smelled fresh rain on pavement

Yeah, I have to keep the windows shut or the nits fly up through the screen at night, attracted by the interior lights.
