It’s Hump Day and National Hot Sauce Day. Birthdays: John Donne, Lord Byron, August Strindberg, Beatrice Webb, George Balanchine, Sam Cooke. What fragrance are you wearing?

More benzoin points for me, in Imaginary Authors Dipped in Chocolate.

Reminder: on 1/24, wear a fragrance with benzoin, if you have one.

And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2025, where I’ll try (but usually fail) to have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.
