Notes:
  
Very FuN and DANGEROUS! Next time I will use a hairdryer.



Imagine the aroma of the heated [sometimes burning] vinegared paper mingling with the Morning Glory scent of the Beanpod Candle

Nearby a brewing pot of morning coffee is competing with its blend of simple and pure Colombian beans. This is a coffee "with hints of tangerine combined with raw sugar and roasted walnut flavor notes".

A slight scent of cilantro from the previous evening's meal [but more likely from the garbage basket under the sink] compliments the air.

An odiferous event such as this may never again occur!

Bibliography:
Codes & Secret Writing by Herbert S. Zim, 1948, Scholastic Book Services, USA.

Long ago this paperback was thoughtfully set aside by Steve's mom. [Thank you, Mom!]
The book includes many ideas. There is something wonderful and clever about writing notes to your friends in secret code!
