A smell from childhood

The game's question
After the question, leave a little silence – and breathe in together.
A smell can take you back fifty years in a single second. A cake turning golden in the oven, vegetable soup simmering for hours, toast in the morning, jam on the boil… A whole Sunday of your childhood is in there: the kitchen, the people and the light. Which kitchen smell takes you back to when you were small?
A memory to share – the first smell that comes
Need a hint?
Name a smell of your own to get things going: ‘For me, it’s cake in the oven… and you?’ Then let the silence work, without hurrying.
Why this game : Smell is often the shortest way back to early memories – one smell, shared, can bring a whole scene and a warm feeling with it.
