Lorel: 
I've read other people's suspicions about this; however, I thought 
she came across as simply a batty old lady - and it seems like batty 
old ladies' houses do smell like cabbage or other strange and off-
putting odors. I believe she's a Squib, and is old enough to have 
gotten over it (unlike Filch, for example). It's nice to think that a 
Squib could be useful to the Order, as well - sort of fits DD's 
worldview (not just Wizards have something to contribute).
