OBI BEST “Green and White Stripes” is the best musical equivalent I have found to representing that strong wash of a feeling I get when smelling something seasonal or tasting a food I haven’t eaten since an important event or period of my memory.  Do you know too?  Lilacs…boom.  Sun tan lotion… boom.  PB and J sometimes even gives me that over-tired anxious feeling in the pit of my stomach, like walking back into my elementary school on the first day of a new school year (that sandwich always in the lunchbox.)

This song.  This song.
