I'm missing food aromas in the neighborhood.

I remember as a kid walking around my neighborhood and smelling all sorts of food aromas. Is it just me or have those wonderful aromas vanished? It really doesn't matter that I remember sniffing the burnt toast or the bacon frying, it was a time when food mattered and family connected. I think food still matters and I haven't lost hope. I know families still connect, but the aromas are not as potent as they once were. Maybe we are not home as much or we work a lot more. Whatever the reason why, I still miss all the food aromas.
