would you like a bacon candle?

today we were getting our house ready to show. we've been told that little things like the smell of baking cookies can leave people with a good impression of your house. so, tammy and i were batting around ideas for "aromatherapy" for the house. we thought that a candle would be great for this. soon after, tammy and sam went to a nearby store to purchase one - preferably one that smells like cookies. :-)

while at the store, sam came up with the perfect scent for the candle - bacon. he kept trying to persuade tammy that what we needed was a candle that smelled like frying bacon. that would make people like the house. and even more, he told her that people walking down the street would smell the candle and want to come inside to look at the house. he told her that a bacon candle was the sure way to sell our house.

so...would you buy a house that smelled like bacon?

i give my son a 10 for creativity...and a 9.5 for a persuasive argument. BUT tammy bought a candle. she went with a sugar cookie scent.

the bacon candle will have to wait for another day. :-)
