I am blest with a pretty good long term memory. I find that most of the memories are just like a movie in my mind. Even the bad memories are like a photo or movie. Don't know if I always see the tiny details but the scene and the emotions come back clearly. As a kid the most magical place for myself and my siblings was my maternal grandma's farm. The smell of zest soap is a topic of conversation among my sibs and I as being reminiscent of the farm. That soap is what was used always in the linoleum long narrow bathroom with the high-sided claw foot tub and the sink by the window. Funny how a glass bottle with a red cap can be so important years later, and as well, that Zest soap smell. :)
