Lately we have been living with a non stop stench.  We narrowed down the source to the wall in which our pocket door to the bathroom in located.  It smelt like the most horrible rotten garbage you could ever imagine.  I bought several different varieties of room deodorizers and even some fancy incense from India- nothing helped.  That wall is connected to our garage which is also ripe with garbage aroma on most occasions so we thought the source had to be the garbage can.  We bleached out the garbage can for several days... Still no stench relief.
  Yesterday Ken went into the garage to find the source of the offensive smell.  Not long after he started looking he found an old set of plastic drawers that I used to use to hold my potatoes and onions.  Apparently when I decommissioned it I forgot to remove the onions.  They had rotted to the pure liquid stage.  Ken nearly vomited several times while trying to clean it out.  Poor guy. 
Guess what??  The stench is gone.  My sister will be happy to know this.  Since she lived with the stench during her entire visit here, she knows exactly how bad it was.
My stench for today was when I placed my coffee in the microwave to warm it up- not thinking that the cup is NOT safe for the microwave.  It melted, and the fumes of melted plastic nearly brought on a migraine.   I'm pretty chapped because I LOVED that cup, and it came with the mini coffee maker that Suz gave me.  Drat it all again.
OH well, on to the next stench...
