At our last meeting on November 19th, Toastmaster Melanie K. took us on a mini exploration into the world of scents. Everyone shared their favourite or not so pleasant scent. We learned about how the first recorded perfume was made back in 1200 BCE.
Kerrianne K-M. informed us
about public trust and the Canadian agri-food scene, while Eileen S. provided a
descriptive speech on her preparations for family who will be home for the
holidays.
We became aware of what some
of the best jobs are such as sommelier (wine), chocolatier, baker, florist
amongst others to some of the most odious jobs such as zookeeper, sanitation
and sewage technologists, pathologists and crime scene investigators. Polar
bears have the best sense of smell and can smell seals 32 km away! Dog have
jobs smelling many different things helping military and law enforcement
personnel from bed bugs, landmines, to money, drugs and foreign foods. Melanie
brought various scented essential oils and books on aromatherapy. Scented
prizes were given to everyone in attendance. A scentsational good time was had
by all!
Please join us on December 3rd
as we delve into Workshop Essentials led by Lingo’s President Dan M., DTM! J
