Hi All! Valerie-It’s good to see you posting. I haven’t had any leaking issues with EA so far. LSC was a leaky mess for me. Great wax though. Amy-I am enjoying the beach house. Easter should be nice here. I’m just preparing the lasagna now. We are also having a spiral ham. Maggie-I hope your dad continues to improve. Today was Swanky Iconic Hard Candy Let Them Eat Cake. Great scent but didn’t last long. Happy Easter to all!

Hi All! I hope everyone is doing well. Valerie-It’s nice to see you posting again. The Mrs. Claus Nightgown is Macintosh Apples, Garland and Clean Laundry. It’s a beautiful scent. I’m glad you are going back to New Mexico. I’m sure you will love being closer to your girls. Amy-I’m glad you are enjoying your cardamom. I don’t think I have ever melted that note. I might have to try it. Maggie-I’m sorry for all you are going through. Hope your Dad feels better. I am melting VRC Loopy Lemon Ice Cream. It’s Fruit Loops, Fruity Pebbles, Lemon Curd and Vanilla Ice Cream. Yesterday was RG Chocolate Covered Cherries and Roasted Marshmallows which was a sample and RG Campfire Marshmallows from a generous CF friend. Enjoy the rest of your day!!

Hi Everybody! I had almost finished typing a very lengthy post but it just disappeared. I really don’t understand what happened. Yesterday was RG Mrs. Claus Nightgown and it’s so good! We went to my son’s for dinner yesterday. It was my DIL’s birthday. Today is ST Granny’s-This is Cappuccino, Pie Crust and Sugar Milk. Happy Monday!

Hi All! Amy- I’m sure feeding time is very busy in your house. Sparkles is a vendor I haven’t heard of. Where did you hear of it? Loving my laundry scents lately. I love mystery boxes too because it lets you try scents you never would. Today it’s another oldie- ST Poseidon. This is Blue Sugar, Cotton Candy, Sea Salt and Beachwood. The throw on this is weak but it’s over 3 years old. Update: This started out weak but it got very strong! Love this! Have a great day!

Good Morning Everyone! I hope everyone is doing well. I’m trying to go through some older wax and finish up partially used bags. Today it’s VRC Caramel Coffee Cupcakes from a 2019 Coffee Sampler and EA Witching Hour. This is Dragon’s Blood, Coffee Grounds, and Toasted Chocolate Tobacco. Enjoy your day all!

Hi All! Amy-I do enjoy my quiet time. It’s relaxing. I wish it was earlier though. Alarm went off this morning at 5:15 am. Another VCS oldie today- Finishing up a bag of Cookie Monster’s Post from 2018. Nice scent but not too strong. Enjoy the evening!!

Hello All! it’s very late for me and I can’t sleep. I have been so busy everyday that I tend to just get some time to myself at night. I will regret it and be a zombie tomorrow but it feels good. I melted some older VCS again today. It feels good to finally use these up-Sweet Lavender Smoothie with Creamy Pumpkin Overpour and It’s a Wonderful Pumpkin Life. These were both strong and lasted all day. I can melt Pumpkin anytime of the year. Overnight it’s The Pharmacist’s Daughter - Flirt. This is Cashmere Glow, Hipster and Salt Water Princess. This smells great. Amy-Glad you are feeling better. I am a bit anxious about the second shot this week but will be happy to be fully vaccinated. Susan-Nice to see you posting. You are melting some beautiful scents. I rearranged some of my wax yesterday. It made me nervous. I have ordered so much wax during this pandemic. I’m actually thinking of destashing some but not sure how those websites work. I need to do some research on it. I probably have quite a few dupes to sell. I don’t even know what I have. That’s bad. Hope everyone is having a good night’s sleep.

Good Morning! Amy-I am glad you are feeling better. One down and one to go. That’s some big piece of wax and the scent sounds wonderful! Melting here an older VCS I’m trying to use up- Cozy Jackie O from 2018. This is Warm Spices and Birthday Cake Noel. Happy Sunday!

Good Morning! Sharon- it’s the first day of spring here. Beautiful and sunny! Looking forward to the change of weather. I love Spring too! Amy-I’m glad you got the first shot. We get the second dose on Thursday. My oldest daughter and son in law are getting it today. This morning I’m melting RG Koopa Klaus needs a Latte. This is Espresso, Gilligan’s Brew, Zucchini Bread and Royal Sugar Cookies. I’ve heard great things about this one. Happy Saturday!

Hi Everybody!! Maggie-What a good feeling that must be to make a dent in your oldies bin!! I need to follow in your example as well. I’m getting there. My wax is making me anxious so it’s time to put the brakes on. I’m trying to go through some of my older wax too. Tonight it’s SB Lemon Cream Puffs. I have melted most of my SB wax. I have only a small bit left. It’s on the older side so I’m hoping it throws well. Amy -I’m glad you were able to purchase a new guitar and keyboard you can use at the hospital. That was a great idea for a retirement gift. I’m sure you will use them well. It was a busy day so I’m tired. Heading to bed now. Good Night all!!

Good Morning! Amy-Thats the perfect walking arrangement! Thanks about the babies. They are doing great! Melting some older VCS today. It’’s Viva Las Vegas. This is Sugared Peanut Butter Cookies and Banana Crepes. Not the strongest but still has scent. Enjoy the day! The VCS lasted most of the day. Changed it out to L3 Jareth/Children of the Corn. This was a gift from a lovely CF friend. This is Pretzels, Blueberry Cornbread, Brown Sugar Poundcake and Sweet Berries. It smells strong already.

Hello Everybody! Amy-It is so nice to see you posting again. I missed your daily posts. I looked forward to them everyday. It’s nice to have a walking buddy sometimes but I would miss the solitude as well. Aldo you have to be on a schedule a bit and that I wouldn’t like. I agree Anna from EA has some beautiful blends. She announced yesterday she was 5 months pregnant. I don’t know if you saw that. I went with my daughter to the the pediatrician with the twins today. They have grown so much. My grandson is the larger at 8 lbs. 14 oz. My granddaughter is 8 lbs. 2 oz. I am glad they are doing so well. Today it’s SGA Woodstock Boogie It was about 2 years old and has an ok throw. It used to be stronger. It’s a favorite blend of patchouli, nag champa and baked sugar cookies. Hope you all are enjoying your day!

Good Morning Everyone! It has been a busy couple of days celebrating my birthday. I enjoyed every bit of it. Yesterday I melted CFTKR Vanilla Lace Cupcakes at Tiffany’s. It was a beautiful scent and it lasted the entire day. Today it’s VCS Kenosha Kickers. This is Honey Pear Cider. Nice scent and throwing well. Working on some of my older VCS from 2018. I have so much from this vendor from 2018 when I went a bit crazy. Still have a lot but I didn’t order in 2019 from here. My wax collection has been growing rapidly lately. Time for real to stop. It’s taking over my closet now and down here on the first floor. I just enjoy it so much. I hope that you enjoyed your Mother’s Day Sharon. Susan-Hope you are doing well. Amy-I’m glad you are enjoying your retirement. I want to go through my kitchen cabinets and throw things away. I just can’t seem to find the time lately. Glad your first vaccine is Friday. I go for the second on 3/25. Maybe life can get back to normal soon. Maggie- I’m still amazed at how well your DH did with his surgery. Hopefully if I do the other knee it will be a quicker recovery because I will be able to drive sooner. I had my right knee done last time. Have a great day!!

Good Morning! My SGA lasted all day. The scent actually got stronger as the day went on. I was so happy for that since I have a lot of wax from that vendor. Today it’s VRC Cream Soda, Vanilla Lace and 7Up Pound Cake. Enjoy all!

Good Morning! Hello! Now I feel like I’m talking to myself here. This morning I’m melting SGA Snack Bar. This is White Chocolate Tres Leche Sugar Cookies. As with other SGA lately I don’t feel this vendor has wax that lasts a very long time. Throw on this is light. It’s about 2 years old. I will give it 4 hours and then change it out. Have a good day all!!

Good Morning! Today I’m melting L3 Strawberry Satsuma Cotton Candy from a CF friend. This is 2 years old and it’s doing great! It’s beginning to look a lot like Spring! It’s beautiful out. I hope you all have a great day!

Good Morning! Hope everyone had a good weekend. This morning it’s RG Moon Mario. I have heard a lot about this one. I got it in a Big Kahuna box. So far it smells great. Enjoy the day all!

Hello Susan and Maggie! Susan - I’m glad to hear you got the vaccine. I got the first dose. Second dose in 2 weeks. your scents sound so good. Maggie-Glad to hear your husband is doing so well. I miss everyone posting too. I like your idea of separating the wax into hot and cold seasons. My goal is to fit everything all into one place. I just need to stick to a no buy which I’m having trouble doing right now. You sound like you are doing well. I am at the beach house tonight to check on things. Melted an oldie -CFTKR Blueberry Zucchini Bread. Still could smell it. I am hoping you are all having a good night. Come back everyone!!

Good Morning! Your husband’s recovery is amazing Maggie. I wasn’t allowed to drive for 2-3 weeks. I had a good recovery too but certainly not that quickly. Good for him!! I’m glad you are getting a good throw from Zeep. Not much luck for me here. Carry on Wayward Son sounds like a good one. Kae’s is on my list to try eventually. Love anything pumpkin. Glad Tara’s lasted for you. Do you put your Fall and Winter wax away ? I’m guessing you separate by season. Do you date your wax when it arrives? Earlier this week I continued melting through my older VCS. It lost it’s actual sticker with its name but it was a blend of Salted Caramel, Eggnog and Marshmallow Pound cake It still had a good throw. Yesterday was ST Magically Delicious, Blackberry and Tea and Cakes This was super strong Really enjoyed this. Today it’s SGA Vanilla Frosted Pumpkin which is going on a hot plate. I’m trying to use up my older chunk bags. Downstairs is RG S’mores Cookie Cups from a wonderful CF friend. This is really good. I’m on an RG kick lately. RG is quickly becoming one of my favorite vendors along with L3, VCS and EA. Miss seeing everyone posting here. I hope you all have a great day!

Hi All! Sorry I didn’t post this week. It’s been busy. Maggie-Hope your husband is doing well. Is he ready to go out already? It’s great that you are getting through some of your oldest wax. I have some really old stuff in my basement. I can probably throw some out because some of it is a melted mess. I think I’m going to try to go through it this week. I have some wax that old also Maggie. Susan-Hope you are doing well. Today it was RG Singing in the the Rain. I love this one! It’s probably one of my favorites. Like Maggie I’m trying to get through some older wax. I did melt some vintage VCS this week. I had company today so missed out on L3. It’s probably for the best. I’m still missing my last order from there. It’s hasn’t moved for a week. I’m hoping it’s not lost. Have a great night!!

Good Morning! Maggie-I am so happy my VCS is doing well and I have loads of wax from her. Lots of Fall scents because they are great. Haven’t touched a lot though because there’s so much to melt. Today it’s another VCS oldie-Home Alone. This is Buttercream Cupcakes topped with crushed peppermint. Your melts sound great Maggie! TGIF!

Hi Sharon! Good to see you here. Maggie- I’m glad your husband is doing well. There’s nothing like your own bed. I need to put all my older VCS in its own bin. That’s a project for me. Hopefully I can make a big dent in my VCS. BTW my melt was so strong it went for 2 days!! Today it’s Destination Wax Moonspice Cookie. New vendor for me. Thanks friend! It’s excellent. This is Sugar Cookies, Coffee and Celtic Moonspice. I have a whole untouched order from this vendor I need to get started on. Hope you are all enjoying your day!

Good Morning!!! I hope everyone is doing well. Maggie-I love the VRC Tobacco Barn. That Hayden Rowe sounds good too. Overnight it has been RM Lavender, Bed Time Bath and Baby Powder. Yesterday was EA Renegade. This was Earthen Oak, Oud Wood. Rosewood and Oakmoss. This morning it’s VCS Caffe Reggio Donut. This is a little over 2 years old Hope it does well. I’m trying to get through all my 2018 wax from this vendor. Maggie-Hope your husband is coming along. We had rain overnight. It’s 43 degrees already. Hope most of the snow melts. Unfortunately we are expecting more snow on Thursday. Enjoy your day all!

Good Morning! Happy Valentine’s Day! I am grateful to having met all of you. Amy-It’s nice to see you posting. It must feel nice to get your house in order and not having workers in the house. I am glad that you are pleased with everything. Maggie-we put a bed in the family room for me too. The bathroom was there but the shower was upstairs. I slept there there for 2 nights when I came home. Then I made it upstairs to sleep every night. The bed really came in handy to relax and ice my knee. I have been melting a few of my samples too. Sometimes you fall in love with a scent you might not have tried. Overnight was S & S Lavender Chamomile. This was a bit on the older side but it’s throwing great. DH and I are going out to dinner later. Indoor dining opened at 25% capacity this weekend. Have a happy Sunday and stay safe!
