I hate my kitchen.

It is a graveyard of food smells from every single meal ever cooked in that  house. Ever.

 Every morning when I get up and go make my lunch I barf/dry heave over the sink. Then I go about making my lunch, with spontanious barf breaks.

    Have you tried spraying febreeze odor reducer spray or burning candles with fragrances that are easy on your stomach?? That's what I do...because smells get to me easy too!

    My kitchen stinks, too.  We don't have a fan above the stove so I've resorted to cooking with the windows open, even in winter.  It's on the never-ending list of things that need to be taken care of.

    Febreeze is the devil.

    I burned vanilla candles constantly in my 1st tri.... find a smell that soothes you and try that.

    I tried the whole candle thing!  Even if they smell good in the store, I end up cursing them when I get them home.  I'm apparently sensitive AND wishy-washy.

    Hey Hula, mind the shout out in my siggy?  It just seemed like an extra pa-pow for flame days.  Wink  Also, I have a crush on you and that nestacle of yours.

    I hate mine as well.  I don't have a dishwasher so I have to hand wash all of my nasty, stinky dishes by hand.  I would make my DH do it, but every time I ask him to he says "I will later" and they just pile up and then I can't stand it anymore... even if it's only 15 minutes after I asked him.  I just kind of plug my nose and try to breathe through my mouth.

    I have a pile of dishes next to my sink right now, too, but we actually have a dishwasher.  Unfortunately it's not the kind that unloads itself.

    Everything in my kitchen makes me gag. The garbage can, the dishwasher, the coffee pot, the fruit bowl...the list goes on. I just run through it as fast as I can. ick!
