My sister and I didn’t spend a lot of time outside when we were kids. At least, that’s what I was brought up to think were the smells of summer while I was watching TV. Truthfully, the summer scents of my childhood consisted of soggy Pizza Pops, microwave Kraft Dinner and lukewarm pizza bagels eaten in a wood-panelled basement with yellowy fluorescent lights. My grandma was still living with us at the time and she watched us while my parents were at work. Our fridge was stocked with all kinds of frozen junk food stockpiled from Costco: Pizza Pops, Bagel Bites, French fries.
