"I smell something stinky", originally uploaded by scottpartee.

Maple and I were kicking it at the homestead, and I lay on my back on the sofa with my arm around her while she recited for me the various foods she was ordering for deliver for her pet lamb. She cuddled close, and made her stinky face (as illustrated in the included photograph). It was the weekend, and, let’s just say I was being a bit lax with my hygiene. Some may call it being “European.”

“Maple,” I said, “what’s stinky?”

“In your underarm,” she replied.

“Really? What’s it smell like?” I asked. I knew it was ripe, but nothing super major. I’m not growing onions under there or anything. Plus, I thought she might be talking about something else.

“It smells like it has everything in it!” Maple declared.
