RE: Fiction: The Penguin and Her Lavender
Great story! Very funny and transporting. Love the living gnomes with their petty complaints, just like humans. I can see this whole thing. But who does not like lavender? Is that a gnome thing?
Well done!
Thanks @owasco. Some people are allergic to lavender. Sadly, I'm one of them.
That must make for some awkward situations, lavender is ubiquitous now. I have a friend who is also allergic to many scents, and she has a hard time almost everywhere.
Since I don't go out much, that's not a big deal. When I was young and dating, I had to screen my dates carefully. It was awkward to walk up to someone I was attracted to, start talking, then begin sneezing so much I had to excuse myself. lol
