Floor-cleaning products in Venezuela have ten times the pine fragrance of U.S. floor cleaners. Venezuelan women won’t buy a weaker fragrance. These obsessive homemakers may wet-mop their tile floors twice a day, leaving windows and doors open so the scent can waft out to the street to send the message that their houses are clean.
I'm not going to Venezuela. I hate that smell even in small amounts. That would put me over the edge.

My evil.x.SIL is teaching down there... hmmmmm.
ReplyDeleteYou wouldn't even sacrfice it for the hot and sexy Venezuelian men???
ReplyDeleteNo, I can't sacrifice even for them! It's a deal breaker.
ReplyDeleteI think everyone has their own sensory perception of clean- for my Momma, it wasn't clean if it didn't smell like bleach!
ReplyDeleteMy Celia uses Pine Sol in some places, bleach in others, and Fabuloso in between. It creates a uniquely clean smell, and when I come home I always bask in a house that has been freshly Celiacized!
