Do You Smell What I Smell

The song “Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!” perfectly captures the excitement and comfort that abounds during the first big snowstorm of the year.

Sure, it can start to look pretty harrowing outside when a blizzard rages on, but if you’re stocked up on supplies and have nowhere to be, there’s a comfort in that. In fact, it’s one of those rare times when you can just hunker down and do nothing without feeling any guilt. Because what are you going to do, run an errand? No way. Better put on your pajama pants, make some cocoa, and binge-watch Chopped all day.

What the song doesn’t convey is the misery of the aftermath.

And we don’t just mean the feeling when you wake up the next morning and the storm is over, forcing you to resume your regular life. No, we’re talking about the sense of entrapment that comes even later. You look outside and see jagged ice shards and slush instead of pillowy white. Because the snow, beautiful when it’s falling, is not so fun to deal with when it lingers.

Another thing that lingers: the smoky, burnt air from that fire which was once “so delightful.” Also, the “corn for poppin’” is gone… except for the occasional husk you find between your teeth and a stale, oily odor in the kitchen.

What we’re saying is: the winter starts out cozy and ends up gross.

This certified renewed air purifier from Shark can’t help you with the slush and the ice outside. It also can’t do anything about the stuff you track in every day. Nor can it get at the popcorn stuck between your teeth.

But, it can help with the smoke in the air. And also, it can freshen up the kitchen.

How? Well, it has a NANOSEAL with true HEPA filtration that’ll catch 99.98% of large, small, and micro-sized particles that might otherwise just float around and nasty up the place. And, by the way, despite its small size, it can clean out areas up to 500 square feet.

So get one now and be ready when winter starts to get a bit stale.
