Kitchen Smells

I worked in Cadburys when I was pregnant! The smell of chocolate made me so ill, I lost loads of weight!

Then I got moved to a different department where we packed meat for M&S and I honestly don't know how I got through the shifts, it was awful.

It seems to be under more control at the moment, so fingers crossed. There has been a few gagging sessions, but she seems to be coping a bit better with it. Fingers crossed!

I do most of the cooking so that is helping as well I think.

I find that whenever we cook food that can produce a lot of greasy smell such as when we fry steak, the best way for us is to put half a lemon in a microwave proof dish full of water and microwave it for 5 minutes then take the bowl out and leave it near the hob top and keep the kitchen door closed. The vapours from the lemon water cooling down seem to neutralise the fatty smell and leave a fresh smell, which is less harmful than using chemical airfresheners.

Excellent tip, thanks. However, we don't have a microwave.
