  1. I'm melting Can-Do's Apple Cinnamon today. Merry Christmas, everyone! Gail
  2. Stay warm, Mpfand - and everybody! Sweet, thanks for the info on GC. I too love Gold Canyon candles. I "need" to get some! Just got back from taking my pup to the regional park. This time of year there are so many awesome birds, which is a big deal to bird lovers like me. I saw great blue herons, white tailed kites, western bluebirds, a red shouldered hawk, a northern harrier, snowy egrets. So cool! Time to settle in and enjoy HHS Trick or Treat again. I hope you're all having a really good day. Gail
  3. Trep, I'm so sorry about your father-in-law. Mpfand, bummer re the car repair. How's your weather up north? We got a good amount of rain and it's been 20-25 degrees overnight. Lots of ice! :o Sweet, I'm a little lost. Is your GC's Holiday Wreath Goose Creek or Gold Canyon, please? I'm melting something waaaaay out of season, HHS's Trick or Treat. Hey, I can't help it! I love this one! Gail
  4. I'm melting Grubby Hollow's Olde Cider Mill from a very thoughtful CF friend. Man, I love this one! Hope everyone's having a nice Sunday. Gail
  5. I'm melting Haley's Pleasingly Pumpkin on this rainy day. I hate it, but we need it. (The rain, not the tart.) Gail
  6. Sweet, thank you for the kind words about my family's health struggles. You're always so kind. We're hoping for a brighter 2013. NMHoneybear, that's a beautiful photo! New Mexico is such a picturesque state. I loved your story of the butterflies! My three little granddaughters came over yesterday. We baked and frosted Christmas cookies and got the tree decorated. They're actually starting to get really good at all these holiday festivities. No waxies yesterday because those cookies scented up the place just fine. Today it's Can-Do's Amish Apples. More Gail
  7. waxie friends, I hope you're all doing well! Several of my family members have had serious health troubles this year, but at least we're all upright, walking, and talking these days! And counting our blessings, ohhh yeaaah! I'm melting Can-Do's Very Vanilla this morning. It's 100% Gail
  8. Hi all, Aria, you are the queen of cute emoties! I'm melting Can-Do's Amish Spice, a big fave! Trep and Sweet, I hope your weather doesn't take a bad turn. Gail
  9. I love the thread title! Congrats, Sweet! Christy, I hope your move goes smoothly. NMHoneybear, I'm so sorry to hear of the sudden passing of your other mother. I wish you comfort and peace. I've been melting Candle Dippers' Pomegranate Cider off and on for days. It's SO GOOD and lasts forever! I lit a new candle last night and will do the same this evening. It's just wonderful - burning perfectly, smelling divine, and throwing well. It's a double wicked 10 oz. keepsake jar in Spiced Cranberry from Haley's. Gail
  10. Hello friends, I started the morning with Can Do's Red Hot Beans. The scent description says red hot cinnamon and vanilla bean noel, so I expected to love it. Um, nope. My nose is getting picky. Noooo, I did NOT say I'm picking my nose! Switched out to Candle Dipper's Pomegranate Cider. Gail
  11. Gosh, there are too many health issues here. :huh: I hope everybody gets to feeling lots better really soon. I'm melting Can-Do Spiced Clove. I like this scent lots more than yesterday's evergreen one. Gail
  12. I'm loving all of the wintry holiday avatars! I'm melting Tara's Christmas Splendor. It's strong and good for people who like evergreen scents. I want to like 'em and I keep trying but darn it, I just don't. I need to find a spicy replacement... Gail
  13. Hi all. I'm here Maggie! Hope everybody had a lovely Thanksgiving. Mine was great cuz I didn't have to cook. I'm melting CandleDipper's Sugar Plum Berries. Man, I love this one! Back to shopping. Gail
  14. Thanks bunches for the compliments, Michele, Aria, NMHoneybear, and Debra. I'm burning a YC in Farmers Market this evening. Not much throw, but it's very pretty with the wheat crackle jar shade. Gail
  15. Hi everybody, It looks like one of the mods fixed my too-big photos. I hope I didn't make too much of a mess. :unsure: Thank you all for your sweet words on the curtains. Glad you enjoyed 'em! Trust me, I'm not a talented seamstress, but gathering the curtains at the top covers a multitude of sins. Thanks for the compliments on Hobbit too. He's a daily blessing and by far my DH's favorite dog ever. Speaking of faves, I am REALLY ENJOYING Can-Do's Mimi House! Simple pleasures are often the best, aren't they? Hope you're all having a lovely day today, and thanks again for being so nice, ladies! Gail
  16. I hope everyone dealing with family troubles can find peace. Lord knows we've had enough of them here this past year too... Aww, thanks for asking. Here are a few photos. I hope they aren't too big. I haven't done this in a long time, so can't exactly remember. Here's a shot of a couple of the windows. There's four in all. And a close up of the fabric. A matching table runner, oh so customized ;-). My darling boy snoozing on the sofa. (I couldn't resist.) If anyone's interested, I got this fabulous $25-$40 fabric for $7 a yard at FabricGuru.com! (Not affiliated, just did my research.) To stay on topic, I'm already planning to melt one of my all time favorite scents tomorrow, Can-Do's Mimi's House! Gail
  17. Happy weekend! :D Trep, what awful news in your neck of the woods, but SO GOOD that his mother called police. My heart goes out to her. Congrats on your awesome new computer. We're all die hard Apple fans around here. Cat, oh my goodness, you've had such a big challenge, dear girl! My thoughts and prayers are with you as you make your way to recovery. I'm hoping it'll be complete and not too lengthy. Aria, glad to hear your Ozzy boy is adapting well. Depending on the dog, it can seem like they've morphed into a battering ram when they're wearing that cone. Christy, best wishes for a smooth move! Katz, I read your comment about Can-Do's Vanilla Pumpkin yesterday and decided to melt mine today. ITA. It's wonderful! I've been devoting all my time to sewing window coverings. They're finally done and beautiful. The down side is I just looked around at my sorely neglected house. Ewww! Time to roll up the ol' sleeves and get to scrubbing and cleaning. Gail
  18. Happy Veterans Day! Thanks, everyone, for your responses re the little hummer. I'm so glad it's over and ended happily! :D Sweet, your memory amazes me, as always. Yes, some time back, I did rescue another hummer in a similar situation. I wish they would stay out of our garage! We hide everything that's red so they won't be tempted to come in. DH even disguised the bright red emergency garage door handle with black tape, but they still come in! Yup, guess I need to put up a big "DANGER - KEEP OUT" sign. Debra, yes, they sure are full of personality! Gotta love 'em! Cat, it's WONDERFUL to see you again! I've definitely missed you! Here's hoping you have a bright and joyful 2013! I'm still melting HHS Pleasingly Pumpkin. Such a good one, and this morning I'm awake enough to fully enjoy it! Gail
  19. Good morning and good news! The sweet hummer ate like a little piggy and there wasn't a drop of blood anywhere. She wanted to GO! I placed her on a plant in my front yard and she promptly flew to a different one, where she rested for a few minutes. It was so cute to see her take in the sights and sounds of the early birdies. She looked so perky. And then she flew off into the distant sky! Thanks for your input and support, buddies. Yes indeed, Debra, it sure is a lot of work! What a surprise that your black and white stray kitty is actually two! Christy, good luck with your apartment hunting. I hope you and your DH find the perfect one! I'm melting HHS Pleasingly Pumpkin. I love this one, but I hope to not be smelling it in another half hour. It's not even 7AM here and I already need a nap! Have a really good day today, everybody, and thanks again for caring! Gail - Now dubbed "The Good Foster Mama" by the DH
  20. Good evening! Our temps are going down to 27 tonight. Me no likey, but it's great weather for burning something new so I'm cozy with YC Harvest Welcome. I'm exhausted after spending several hours trying to rescue a hummingbird trapped in the garage. Eventually I was able to get her, but she wasn't in good shape - completely tuckered out, her beak was bleeding quite a bit, and she was probably dehydrated. It took some doing, but I was able to coax her to sip some sugar water, which turned pink in the spoon due to all the blood. She actually perked up and sat on the edge of the spoon - so darned adorable! I really wanted a photo, but just couldn't manage it. Eventually the bleeding stopped and she wanted to fly, fly, fly. By this time, it was dark out. I'm keeping her until morning and plan to give her more nourishment before sending her on her way. If the precious darling dies during the night, at least she had a second chance, and at least she's warm and peaceful now. Sorry! I just thought some of you might be interested. I'll let you know how the morning goes. Keep your fingers crossed for this tiny little beauty, please! Gail
  21. Oooo, Jules! I've recently discovered their pumpkin butters and am now addicted. They are simply the best, IMO. Gail
  22. Happy weekend! I'm melting Candle Dippers' Cravings, a new one to me. The scent description says, "Spices of cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg blend with orange, carrot, grapefruit and apple." This is one perfect little tart, I must say. Enjoy your smellies, everybody! Gail
  23. Our weather's turning chilly now. I'm not a fan. I'll make the best of it with Can-Do's Vanilla Bean Cookies. If ever I become a big bakery fan, it'll be because of Can-Do. Hope all of you dealing with life's various challenges get through them quickly! Gail
  24. Posted two hours ago on Facebook. Use "HAPPYFALL" for 25% off in the shop the next 2 days. Sweet Petula Yes, I've purchased from them before. WONDERFUL products in and of themselves, and the packaging is gorgeous too! Gail
  25. Stella, I hope your surgery goes smoothly and is your last one. Wishing you robust health from here on out! I'm so glad to hear those of you affected by Sandy are safe and well. As we all know, that's the most important thing! Hoping for your beach house to have minimal damage at worst, Michele, and for you and your family to have life return to normal ASAP, Maggie. I'm melting Can-Do's Spiced Nuts. I wasn't sure what to expect from this, but wow, it's sweet and terrific! Gail
