  1. LOL, Sweet! A girl should never be without duct tape, pliers and a good screwdriver ;) When I graduated from high school, my dad bought me a basic set of good tools, most of which I still have. It was probably one of the best gifts I ever got Tonight melting YC Sun & Sand in the living room and burning B&BW Beach Grass in the bedroom.
  2. Debra, I'm sorry to hear about your MIL. Hopefully she'll adjust soon. It's so difficult for everyone involved. DC, I love the dollar store! Salem, the poor pup! I hope she wasn't too upset. Tonight melting YC Early Sunrise--really liking this!--and B&BW Watermelon Lemonade. 'night all!
  3. biolaeagles, glad you got to enjoy a little R&R sweet, love the cookie story! We had some gorgeous weather today. Got up early and went for a very nice run and then met up with a friend for a short stroll around a lovely Japanese tea garden in his neighborhood. So nice to get out and get some sunshine Burning YC Vanilla Oak in the living room and melting Sweet Fixations Fruit Loops in the bedroom. Yum!
  4. Sweet & MaggieMae, I picked up some pumpkin repeats from her sale, but everything else is new. Paid taxes today so after this Nene's order arrives, I'm on a serious wax ban for the next 2 months Good thing I've got lots of spring & summer stuff in the stash already. Tonight melting Streetman Coconut & Lime (big fave) and YC Lime Mojito. This one was pretty light on cold sniff, so we'll see.
  5. Happy Birthday to your DD, MaggieMae! We're having a chilly & damp evening here, so I dug out B&BW Pumpkin Hayride and am using up the very last of a Sweet Fixations Fairy Dust tart. Nene's Kitchen Melts just reopened and I got my shipping notice today. Can't wait!
  6. Laurie, if you have a Target nearby, check the clearance section--I saw a big pile of those in my store the other day, which I thought was odd since they're still at regular price everywhere else :huh: It's all Yankee this evening here, with Vanilla Oak burning in the living room and Snow in Love going in the bedroom.
  7. Ooh, I'll have to look for that! Oh gosh, not another one! Burning B&BW Summertime S'mores and melting a raggedy old chunk of Sweet Fixations Fairy Dust.
  8. Great title, Maggie Mae Happy April, everyone! Burning YC Warm Woolen Mittens and melting Nene's Vanilla Snowflake on this stormy & chilly April Fools day.
  9. A chilly, damp evening here... burning B&BW Pumpkin Carving and melting Wylde Ivy Woodland Orchard while we watch the Oakland A's play Cleveland on Opening Day
  10. biolaeagles, those quake swarms are so hard on the nerves! Stay safe. sweet, they used to tell us to go get in a doorway when a quake hits but now they're saying to sit up against an interior wall away from glass or under a sturdy piece of furniture, but they're usually over by the time you realize it's really an earthquake :huh: Served me right for watching that creepy movie yesterday: woke up about 3am convinced something might try to grab my foot got my kitty to come snuggle with me, which helped :D Burning B&BW Cranberry Woods in the living room (goes very well with the smell of baking nut loaf), and Nene's Cranberry Chutney in the bedroom.
  11. Michele, I'm so sorry about your friend debra, hope you were able to get your MIL home ok. ERs are no fun. We got more rain today, so hunkered down and watched "The Conjuring." I'll be sleeping with the lights on tonight! Burning B&BW Winter in the living room and YC Sunlight on Snow in the bedroom.
  12. Katz, I'm so sorry to hear about your losses. I hope you have a good visit with your family MaggieMae, my goodness, I hope you recover quickly! I'm always terrified of slipping on ice It poured here today but the sky's clearing up already and it seems we're done for a while. Burning B&BW Cranberry Woods and Marshmallow Fireside while the gettin's good.
  13. Biolaeagles, here's the description that I found cached on Google (which is good, because I certainly wouldn't be able to identify all these notes myself! ): "Fruity spices with notes of creamy orange, vanilla, cinnamon, clove, and a touch of amber." It's very sweet and creamy with just a little spice. MaggieMae & Debra, I put one of the sticks in the car today and it was ok at first, but not too pleasant by the time I headed home. Think I'll crack open the pack of Beachwalk and see if they'll let me swap the Meyer Lemon for another scent :( We're having some rare rainy & cool weather, so I hustled out my B&BW Pumpkin Carving and Nene's Pumpkin Butter for the evening. So cozy
  14. biolaeagles, glad to hear you had a great time at Shen Yun! candlelove, DWTS will be so much fun. Congrats on scoring tix! I just opened a pack of YC Meyer Lemon car vent sticks that smell like lemony rubber. I hope it improves with some airing. Even though they're from the outlet, they were not inexpensive <_< Tonight melting Nene's Christmas Market in the living room--even though it's nearly 80 degrees out, this is such a comforting scent. B&BW Lakeshore is going in the bedroom.
  15. This morning's melt was Streetman Hazelnut Coffee. Delish! Just fired up B&BW Summertime S'mores in the living room and TBG Pink Lime in the bedroom. It's supposed to be cooler and rainy here later in the week, so hoping I get another chance to burn my cozy winter scents before they get put away
  16. Aria, congrats to your DS! biolaeagles, how fun! Happy birthday to you and DH It's YC Pink Sands again in the living room since the tart was still going strong, and TBG Beach Bum in the bedroom. I didn't love it when I first melted it, but giving it a second chance.
  17. Laurie, I hope they figure out what's up with Teeni. What a cutie biolaeagles, I love DL! Did you hear they're making a Cars 3? :D Tonight melting YC Pink Sands in the living room and TBG Coconut Lemon Tea in the bedroom. I've gotta start digging some more spring & summer scents out of hiding this weekend. YC is having a flash sale tomorrow: 2 small tumblers for $20. I'm torn, because I prefer the 2-wicks to the small single wicks, but they have so many I want. Decisions...
  18. Sunnygt, great haul! Grapevine & Oak is a nice one--I have some tarts I need to dig out. Tonight melting YC Early Sunrise in the living room (very nice! a fresh, lemony tea scent), and burning B&BW Marshmallow Fireside in the bedroom. Happy Spring, everyone!
  19. Aria, I hope your week is getting better Ugh, honeybear, that's a sound I'm all too familiar with! I hope you have a good stain remover :o I'd hoped to get a couple more hours out of my YC Black Coconut tumbler tonight, but the wicks just fizzled out, so burning YC Let it Snow instead, and YC Sunlight on Snow in the bedroom. This was an outlet find but I couldn't track down a description--it's kind of a musky/laundry scent so far. Not bad.
  20. Happy St. Patrick's Day! I wasn't quite in the mood for corned beef & cabbage or even colcannon today, so we're making pesto. It's green, right? ;) Honeybear, yay for no root canal! Sending good toothy healing vibes :D Tonight burning B&BW Summertime S'mores in the living room and melting TDC Pumpkin Patchouli in the bedroom.
  21. dc, I hope your cousin is ok! I ended up taking a really long nap this afternoon and feel so much better. I love sleep Tonight burning YC Vanilla Oak in the living room and melting YC Beachwood in the bedroom. Have a good evening!
  22. I like the scent, a pleasant, sweet orange but the throw is not strong at all--I only got occasional whiffs sitting about 10 feet away. The windows were open, so that might have affected it some. Debra, I hope your old guy feels better soon Sunlight, glad to know she's just taking a break! I miss the daily posts. Tonight I'm burning YC Black Coconut in the living room and melting YC Vanilla Lime in the bedroom.
  23. biolaeagles, it was pretty strong! I ended up blowing it out a bit early because it was fighting with the bedroom scent in the hallway Tonight I'm burning B&BW Sicilian Orange in the living room and YC Pink Sands in the bedroom. Hopefully these two will co-exist more peacefully :D Have a good evening!
  24. I gotta get me some of that. Sounds so delicious! Tonight I cracked open a brand new jar of B&BW Tiki Beach for the living room, and have YC Beachwood melting in the bedroom.
  25. Howdy, folks! We had a gorgeous spring day here today with blue skies and a nice breeze, but they're saying low 80s maybe this weekend. I'm not ready yet! Burning YC Vanilla Oak in the living room and the leftover YC Pomegranate Cider from last night is still going strong.
