March Into Scents

[March Into Scents]

Good morning...I think...

 

I woke up to the sound of one of the kitties (the 25 lb one!) throwing up all over my good chair in my bedroom. :angry: That's the second time in the past month or so! Now that'll get ya up, won't it?! Nobody around here seems to care that it is supposed to be Spring Break for Mama.

 

Good grief, Susan! Six more inches of snow?! Can't wait for you to thaw out and enjoy some Springtime weather.

 

UTC Sun Moon & Stars

 

Going to start my day over this very minute.

[March Into Scents]

Thanks everyone!!My throat is just scratchy and I do have a tickle type cough that comes and goes. I'm melting Autumn Romance again today from Goose Creek. It's nice to see the sun shine and a couple of very nice days on their way. Have a great day y'all.

[March Into Scents]

Enjoy your trip Mpfand...

I have a little tickle in my throat today. I hope I am not getting sick...it's been a long time since I've even had a cold.

Some recent melts are: Sugar & Spice, Mystery tart, Apple Crisp Ice Cream, Serendipity Coconut Cream Pie, Bonfire, Bliss. LSC-Autumn Lodge, Goose Creek- Autumn Romance, and TDC-Tis the Season.

We are finally thawing out here in our area and it's nice to see the ground.

Have a lovely afternoon everyone!!

Candlelove: I miss LSC. I could usually cut those babies in half and get several meltings from a single tart.

 

I'm burning a Goose Creek candle: Dark Vanilla Bean. It's creamy and yummy. I'm also melting S & S Caramel Apple Waffle Cone and Caramel Praline Zucchini Bread. Both of these scents are so good!! They have some wonderful bakery scent concoctions. More snow in our forecast for next week and very cold the next couple of days. I have become a hermit over the winter, so looking forward to spring time.

I'm happy you were able to get your car unstuck... DS got his hung up the other day backing out of the drive way. and DH had to come and pull him out with a chain. I hope this winter is bidding it's adieu very soon...

Laurie - Welp...ya know that applies to me, too. :D And I'm guessing most everyone on the board. We all gots da waxie fever!

How was your AS pkg...did U get everything U ordered?

 

DC - Aww geeze - how awful! Was that the storm with the freezing rain? I did think about calling AAA to tow me out of the driveway, but I kinda don't think that would have been high on their priority list.

 

 

Thanks MaggieMae! I wish all of us on this board lived closer to each other & could get together and have waxie parties - that would be lottsa fun!

 

I'm melting CFTKR's Sweet Indian Bread - different, but I really like it! I did get my car back in the garage. After what felt like forever shoveling the snow, a guy down the street came to push me. I thanked him and only had $10 but told him I could give him more tomorrow. He said 'that's ok', so I thought he was good w/that. Then he said 'so..what time is good 4 U tomorrow?' Oh well, I'm grateful for his help. :) Oh...BTW...we had thundersnow again early this morning at 5am - kinda cool!

Guess What??...Just waiting for a mixed bag of rain, sleet, ice, and or snow...I need sun and warmth.. I am burning my Goose Creek Fireside Woods candle. It really does smell like a fireplace in a good way in my living room. I think I may have to order another one of this scent.

Some recent melts are: Makes-scents candle-Sweater Weather, TDC-Pumpkin Crunch Pie (extra Yummers!!), TDC-Frosted Pumpkin, Sugar & Spice-Apple Crisp Ice Cream, Vanilla Sugar Waffle Cone, Lasting Scent Candles-Peppermint Bark...I have been watching for an opening for over 2 weeks but nothing yet and I will probably miss out when ever they decide to open. I hope all is well with everyone. Be safe, and stay warm!!

Becky!!

 

Katz....oh gosh...I hope you didn't get hurt!! Did you have trouble getting up cause you were laughing or it was slippery?

 

Wow, Cookielady....15 is a lot!!

 

Michele...your weather sounds like ours....we got 9.7 inches of snow by noon...then it turned to rain and sleet. Tonight it's supposed to turn back to snow for about 4 more inches. The kids already have a delayed opening. The generator IN your house is great...well be getting one...eventually. ;). Thanks for the get well wishes!

 

Tonight it's...

Granny's scoopables in:

Old Fart

Get Over It

Retail Therapy

Upstairs it's Daphne's Serendipity Palm Beach Cooler....really love this!!

 

Maggie a little of both..just glad I didn't break anything.

:huh: I am so sore....was walking through my kitchen last night and my boot got caught on the floor molding (don't know how the heck that happened) and I started falling....and tripping and falling all the way down the hallway until I crashed into a heap by the front door. I just couldn't get my feet under me. Of course I couldn't stop laughing as I lay on the floor.....wish I had a video cause it musta been something to see! My family was convinced I had been in the liquor cabinet...but I wasn't! Clumsy!! No broken bones but I feel like I've been beat up all down my left side. Argh.

 

Added Lavender Coconut Milk from JLC&C upstairs.

 

Katz...your scents sound yummy! Glad you're having better luck with your VCS roses. :)

 

I'm so glad you are ok...I fell outside in my drive way this week and could not get up for the life of me.... I hope no one saw me... Yes the VCS roses throw much better. I think they are opening on the 20th, so maybe I will try a few more.

We have a Meijer close to us in Greenwood. It's been quite awhile since I have been there, so maybe a trip to check out the wax section is in order. Tomorrow will be a heat wave in Indy...26.......bring it on!!!

Some melts from yesterday are Vintage Chic Scents. Aunt Bea and War of the Worlds. The "roses" are throwing much better than the tart cups for some reason. TDC- Vanilla Pine Cones, Saints & SInners, and Sugar & Spice-Caramel Apple Waffle Cones....such a wonderful scent...Have a great afternoon!

[Love is a Many Scented Thing]

Happy Friday to all...another round of snow heading our way. 1-2" this time, so that isn't much at all. I've been running errands today but burning my Goose Creek jar candle Fireside Woods.. It's a really cozy scent and I can walk into my living room and it smells like a fireplace with some wonderful smelling wood. It's definitely not over powering and smells wonderful. Also I have been melting the following:Sugar & Spice: Ghost Munch (to die for)., & Marshmallow Fireside (awesome)., Long Cane Primitives-Caramel Funnel Cake (love this company and I hope they reopen soon). TDC-Elf Snaks, and LSC-Christmas Splendour. I wish y'all a great weekend.

I'm so sorry Honeybear...this must be so hard. Our fur babies are such a wonderful part of our life, and such a heart ache when they are gone. Today's melt is Sugar & spice Sugar Cookie Dough Bread...yummy delish!! Yes, we have SNOW!!! It looks like around 8 ". Some day spring will arrive.. Have a great day and stay warm..

[Love is a Many Scented Thing]

Katz, I had the same problem with one of her clamshells (June Cleaver). Were yours clamshells too, or tarts?

Stay warm!

 

 

I have melts in cups. I tried the other half of Bogie & Bacall and same issue yesterday. These melts are so pretty and I will wait a little longer and try again.

Hello all!! I'm waiting for our next round of snow 6-9" forecast. I'm so sick of the snow and being inside. I have attempted to melt Vintage Chic Scents two different times and so far the melt it is not throwing very well. I tried letting them "cure" for an extra week. The scent is Bogie & Bacall and is a blue sugar sort of scent, so I'm not sure at this point. I also have been melting Can-Do Mimi's House, Creme Brulee Cupcakes and TDC -Sweetgrass and Cedar. If you are in the path of the latest snow apocalypse stay safe and warm..

[Love is a Many Scented Thing]

I'm so sorry Honeybear...it's a hard decision to make and hugs to you...Today we have rain and 40 degrees. Tonight, more snow and Tues..Wed... I don't think I really want to know. Some recent melts are Lather & Lights - Cinnamon Cappuccino, Sugar & Spice Candles-Eggnog French Toast, Mystery tart, and Apple Crisp Ice Cream...all very yummy scents. I'm also melting my Goosecreek candle-FIreside Woods. Have a great weekend y'all and we're rooting for Peyton and the Broncos!!

Hey y'all....just checking in on this cold, but sunny day. I think the weather is taking it's tole on many people. I am so very lucky that I do not have to be out and about every day in this stuff. Today I am melting Vintage Chic Scents-Bogie & Bacall , Sugar & Spice Marshmallow Fireside, and Alamo Candelaria-Ooh La-La and Bella Bohemienne. Great scents on this cold day...

[Beginning the Year with Scents of Good Cheer]

I moped my floor this morning, onto sweeping my floors. I guess the bad weather has it's positive side. My indoor kitties are driving me insane. Mr. Tip wants to constantly eat and our "guest" Mr. Cole just does whatever Tip does...

I have been melting from my new Alamo Candelaria order Hildagoand Heart and Crowns. These are definitely a moderate throw tart, and I am loving the scent combos available. I also have melted TDC-Bergamot Spice, Sugar & Spice- Praline CInn.Zuch. Bread, Sugar Cookie Bread Dough, Caramel Apple Waffle Cone. I'm with Aria..I love each and every one I have tried!!. I have a huge pot of vegetable soup on for dinner. So, stay warm everyone...and if you are in a warm climate I am SO jealous!!

[Beginning the Year with Scents of Good Cheer]

Sweet, I think we are in for it...They say our wind chills will be -40 with actually temp of -15. I feel like I live in Minnesota

[Beginning the Year with Scents of Good Cheer]

Good Saturday morning! I'm burning B&BW's Cinnamon Sugared Doughnuts - luv this scent! :wub: It's been too long 4 me to remember from a few years ago, but (to my nose) it's not run U outta the room strong, more of a moderately strong scent. We're supposed to get a few inches of snow today, too and even warm up to 23 degrees! I hope our forecast of -10 and -14 temps at nite with possible wind chills of -30 next week changes. I wish I could send U some cooler temps your way Biolaeagles!

[Beginning the Year with Scents of Good Cheer]

[Beginning the Year with Scents of Good Cheer]

I'm so glad the snow has almost all melted!! My kitty guests have now returned to the outside. They did pretty good, but 2 kitties most of the time is all I can handle. I will bring them back inside, if it gets that cold again. They do have outside shelters.

Some recent melts are Sugar & Spice Gourmet Soy Candles-Bonfire Bliss, Praline Cinn. Zucchini Bread, Eggnog French Toast. Lathers & Lights -Cinnamon Cappuccino, Makes-Scents Candles- Christmas WIsh, Can-Do- Honey Pear Cider, and Nene's- Persimmon Spice (thanks candle buddy). I hope everyone is having a good week so far.

Been melting A Christmas Story from Goosecreek....I just love this scent....although it's doesn't smell like Christmas at all to me!

 

I thought the same thing Maggie. I would burn this scent year round. Of course, if all has to do with the notes and I am that woodsy, cedar , musk type of gal.

[Beginning the Year with Scents of Good Cheer]

Thank you for the kind comments about our outside kitties. The 2 "guests' are really doing great. The older one is just so grateful to be inside he has stayed put on his rug and "area". The juvenile kitty is much more playful but he is doing well too. Tip and Rawhide are not thrilled with the "guests" but it is suppose to start warming up considerably tomorrow. It will be in the 40's by the weekend. Today I am melting Mimi's House from Can-DO. This is an old favourite and is great for today. The wind chill is a bit better this afternoon -20 at times, so it can be movin' on any time. Have a great evening!

WINTER BLAST 2014!!!This morning it's even too cold to make a snow angel;12" of snow with -41 wind chills. DH and I have been trying to get the outside kitty shelters ready for this Artic Freeze. He lined extra straw and I have heated pads and wrapped tarps around them...We have 4 outside kitties. One came in yesterday afternoon and he has been such a good boy and sleeping on his blanket. The other ( maybe 8 months old) came in last night. He is doing pretty well but wanting to roam around and my Senior Citizen kitty Tip and his sidekick (Mr. Nosey Rawhide) are not liking the "guests" Hopefully by Wed. the temps are suppose to start rising so they will be safe outdoors again. I have been melting lots of Holiday scents and the Vanilla Wonderland candle from Goose Creek is perfect for this type of day. I'm also melting Rustic Lodge from TDC. Stay warm everyone..

[The weather outside is frightful, but the scents are so delightful!]

Soaked the black eyes peas and chopped veggies for the hoppin' john tomorrow. I'm changing up the recipe this year in hopes that 2014 turns out a little bit better than 2013 ;)

 

A friend of mine is in the hospital with pleurisy, so I went to keep him company for a while today, poor guy! It's sad to be so sick on a holiday :(

 

Burning B&BW Winter and a tin candle of Illume Mulled Wine that someone gave me for Christmas. Smells spicy and festive around here!

 

Happy New Year, everyone!

 

Hoppin' John and cornbread is on our menu today too...Happy 2014!!
