Saralee Siegel, a girl with a super-nose, is able to do extraordinary things with her incredible sense of smell. However, when a smell cloud sends her back in time, she faces the risk of losing everything she holds dear.

Unbeknownst to Saralee, she is not the only one in her family with a superpower. Her great-grandmother, Gigi, also possessed a magical sense of smell. When Saralee makes Gigi's famous Hanukkah donut recipe, the scent creates a portal in time, transporting her to a younger version of herself.

As Saralee confronts her younger self, she discovers that Gigi is not the fierce, unstoppable person she had imagined. In fact, Gigi is ready to give up on her dreams and has become discouraged. Saralee knows that she must help her younger self find the courage to pursue her passions, or else the future will be changed forever.

Through their journey together, Saralee and Gigi learn valuable lessons about family, friendship, and the power of perseverance. They discover that even when things seem impossible, with a little bit of love and support, anything is possible.
