Any Home Bakers Here?

I can't tolerate "fragrances", either. I have allergic reactions, can't stop sneezing, etc.

Why do people have to dowse themselves with scent?

I use unscented goat milk soap.
(goatmilkstuff.com)

People over dowse themselves in aromas because they go "nose blind" to their scents. They can't smell them so they think it wore off and keep adding more.

I use the unscented soaps they sell for hunters.

The bread is a bit burnt. The bowl is mozzarella sticks & balls.

I am very sensitive to imitation fragrances, one of the worst for me is the scented laundry products! the stuff never comes out of clothes, I can smell it from quite a distance and it makes me feel sick. DH bought a pair of used jeans from ebay and the smell was so bad! I washed them three times with various things, borax, baking soda, vinegar... they were better but I can still smell it.

I bought new filters for my air cleaner. Someone had scented them so heavily that I couldn't keep them in the house until I returned them.

I currently am using All free clear for laundry and Seventh Generation Natural for dishes.

I add Clorox to the laundry to remove skunk odor. It will help against other aromas.

Wow, that’s the first time I ever saw one of these at my house. I think it’s a bull snake. A friend of mine who works with fish and wildlife in Nebraska agrees.

I pick up laundry detergent smell on my clothes at work, church. I soak the scented items in warm water and either borax or washing soda. And I've left clothes hanging in the shed until they aired out.

White vinegar deodorizes, too, just can't use it on all fabrics.

I've been using Azure Clean, plant based premium, unscented laundry detergent. It works really well. Same brand unscented dish soap.

We brought a used clothing item back from Japan that had this unusual smell to it. We thought we tried everything, and then someone told us to buy some cheap vodka, put it in the spray bottle undiluted, and spray the clothes with it. It actually worked! And the clothes didn't smell like alcohol.

We did this and let it hang outside for a while, and then we put it through the washer with a little vodka in there with it (not sure if this step is necessary). No trace of the bad smell or the vodka smell!

Apparently it's an old trick Broadway actors used to use. Their costumes/stage clothes would get smelly after long days practicing in them. They would carry a spritz bottle of vodka around for this purpose. Hopefully this can work for getting detergent smell out too for you.

I'll agree it's probably a bull snake, cute little baby.
