Smell & Tell at AADL
The Smell & Tell series began at the Ann Arbor District Library (AADL) in 2012, and continues to change the way people think and interact with the sense of smell. Smell and Tell's unique art + sci programming takes place monthly at the Ann Arbor District Library. Taste & Tell is a new branch on the Smell & Tell programming tree that's focused on food and drink. It was launched in June 2019.

The Author and The Site
- Ann Arbor, Michigan, United States
- Glass Petal Smoke was created out of a personal passion for things olfactive and gustatory. The back story regarding a raw material or finished product is often rich with history, myth and folklore. When all of these aspects are brought together, they tell a story of our common humanity, as expressed through the senses. Because Glass Petal Smoke is a blog, an element of cyber anthropology infuses the space in which it exists. Culture is about human nature and people who love food and fragrance are acutely aware of the connection between the senses and memory. Glass Petal Smoke appeals to readers who possess such awareness and those who aspire to it. I hope you find inspiration, joy and wonder in the pages of Glass Petal Smoke and share whatever happiness it brings you with others.
