    Happy V day everyone!

    Boogie- I know you love that one, I am out of it-so I had to put on Amber Enchantment instead!!!

     

    I am also melting Lovespell by Jersey and something Ivy by LOL(can't remember).

    I actually baked a real live Red Velvet Cake this morning to spread some love to my Mom and Sis-so I can't wait to see if it is actually edible or not. The smell was divine!

     

    I hope that everyone has a wonderful evening-and give yourselves lots of love! [smilie=th_bb20]

    Just finished working out and need something else in the burners-I switched to Jasmine in the DR and need something else besides Vanilla Silk in the LR. I know I have been changing a lot today. I also put Amber Enchantment-Illuminescents in the MBR. I think I need to just get in the shower and then decide if I really want to change the LR tart again... [smilie=th_51991986]

    Hi all-I have flannel sheets LOL, Amber-Essential Pleasures, and Japanese Pear-Mia Bella

     

    I had a Night Romance on last night-very Plum and smelled great-CHC.

     

    Cat, do you like Essential Pleasures' Amber? I liked it pretty well. I am a huge amber lover and order it from anyone who offers it but have yet to find "the perfect" amber scent - do you have a favorite?

     

    Hi Send-I do like it alot! I have had it on since last evening and it is still strong. It has a cinnamon undertone-very slightly! One of my favorites is Nene's Oriental Amber-it has that musky tone to it. I must confess, I usually order any and all Amber combinations from every vendor. It is such a soothing scent-that is right up my alley! Of course, I have a broad spectrum of likes. Another good blend is Amber Seduction from Bella's and Cinderella from LOL.

     

    Yeah! A fellow amber lover!!!! I've been wanting to try Nene's so a big THANK YOU for the recommendation. I've tried Amber Seduction and Cinderella and liked them both as well. Patti's Candles (now OOB) had a nice amber and I still have quite a few left. Texas Charm has a few scents with a strong amber presence that I love, too. LOL had a Tibetian Amber that was very nice and I fortunately have quite a few left of those. It's the first thing I look for when placing an order (I search for the word "amber") - thanks again for the recommendation on Nene's!

     

    You'll have to actually thank Boogie for that one-she loves it so much that she buys it in the bark-so she'll never run out! [smilie=th_51991986]

    I do like the Texas Charm ambers and will put the Tibetian Amber on my next LOL order.

     

     

    ETA- I just changed that Japanese Pear into Relaxation Essential Pleasures and put in a New Vanilla Silk in the LR...

    Good Morning all-

    I have been out for a few days so haven't had much of a chance to visit. Wildfire-big hugs and love to you. I am going out to get a blue pillar this morning. I want to have just the right light for all of us for the memorial and strength we need.

     

    I am melting Strawberries and White cake-Mookie Doodle, Pink Sugar-Tuscadero's, Heaven Scents-CFTKR.

     

    Deb-I have been looking all over for a local supplier for the skillet. I did a little experiment, using a mini pie crust pan-the metal does make an incredible difference to the throw!!!

     

    I want the skillet, but the shipping cost is stopping me.Hmmm-I know what's $10? How about 10 tarts?????????? Of course that is my excuse-I really just love "projects" like this-I feel great when I finally find it!The thrill of the hunt-I guess...

    I thank you all for your helpful hints.

     

    I am a special education teacher in a suburb of Dallas. I am married with two college age sons, two dogs, a cat, and a fish tank.

     

    I grow roses (a coupla hundred kinds) and have rent houses.

     

    So I need diversions that don't tear up my hands.

     

    I love roses(fresh ones) and every year we go out and toil in the landscaping,but my yard has been termed the "yard of death". I have a wonderful rose bush left from Mother's day-we shall see if it comes back! I planted(in our latest venture) 9 beautiful mums-we shall see on those too! I have spent more on landscaping since we got the house than in tarts-if you can believe that! I think I am just ready to hire a nice service to do it for me-but I do love working out there! We have even hired a service to come out and test the soil to find out why nothing grows, but daffodils-and bulb types.

    Last year-I put all of the spring flowers in pots-they looked incredible on the porch and deck-but the yard-blechhhh!

    Gosh I have run the gambit with scents today. I have left the Hazlenut Cappucino from Cobblestone on all day-it is still going-wonderful!

     

    I have changed the DR scents 3 times- had the Breathe Clear in-it did its job so I dumped it(eucalyptus doesn't really connect with coffee [smilie=th_yourock] )

    Bought a new tart basket today-so I was organizing tarts and found a partial clamshell from K's-decided to use the rest of it-Snow Angels-zip!Nada! nothing-poured it out and now have Banana Nut Bread by Grazia on.

     

    I usually don't go for Banana scents,but this one is good. It is more bakery than banana and complements the coffee nicely. [smilie=th_Skratta_Bankabordet]

    I just got back from the grocery shopping and bought the Lavendar vanilla oil that Fleur suggested. It smells divine! Thanks for that!

     

    I have been giving the melters a break for most of the day and have been burning candles- I have the Ginseng Energizer on and Snow Angels from K's.

    I just put the melter back on and threw on a Valentine Truffle...

    You guys made me sick!!! I can still smell though,so it will not affect my melting today.The bonus is that DH is sick also-and CAN'T smell! Yay! I don't have to find one we both love!(of course I don't really cater my tarts too much anyway)

    I put on Jack Frost from S&S today. I am not sure that this is an accurate Jack Frost-I am definitely smelling raspberry in there-Alot! I don't mind it,but I wasn't expecting it.

     

    Well, I guess I am going to drag my sorry behind into the shower, so that I can get to the polls.

    Happy Mardi Gras!
