Stella~ Glad you are back and the procedure went well! [smilie=th_balloons]

 

Shortygal~ I hope your package arrives today!!!

 

This afternoon I put on:

Sugar & Spice from McCalls....Love it! Not super strong but strong enough for me...delicious smelling bakery scent. I can smell the cinnamon, vanilla sugar glaze and a doughy bakery background. Definitely gonna get me a bar at some point! :)

Thompson's Snickerdoodle from a lovely CF pal! Thanks...smells yummo!!! [smilie=th_sign0162]

I have melting: Vanilla Ivy by Candle Dippers

 

I think I will try that one tomorrow :)!

 

I tried some more:

- Pharoah's Gold (CFTKR) - not strong and seemed a little stale

- Nana's Banana Apple Juice (Pics, Petals, & Scents) - almost no throw in 15 watter (small powder room) and a thin fragrance - not for me

- Earth Meets Sky (Universal Voodoo) - strong and has some floral (lily of the valley ??) even though the description says, "Fresh Rain, Green Grass, Moist Soil" - nice!

Sugar & Spice is in my new McCall's order coming tomorrow! I ordered 7 more bars.

 

Thompson's Harvest Spice is awesome. The other two I got were good but a bit weaker than I prefer. Is the Snickerdoodle strong?

Sweet~ How'd the Teacakes end up? I think I might try that one this morning....

 

*I am enjoying the Tea Cakes...but the old DH just walked down to go to work and said "It smells like a Funeral Parlor in here!"...this from a guy who usually says nothing. [smilie=th_m4t3zo4]

Tea + Cakes = Does not equal flowers.

MaggieMae - I thought it was very good! [smilie=th_i-m_so_happy] The cake notes never did show up for me, but I'm good with just a tea scent. Did U smell any cake to yours? Your DH is funny! [smilie=th_giggle] In his defense (don't smack me! [smilie=th_pardon] ), some teas do have a slight 'flower-y' sniff to them. But, I didn't notice it with the TeaCake, tho. You'll have to experiment and melt LOTS of florals and see if he thinks that reminds him of a funeral parlor. [smilie=th_scratch] Probably not. :lol:

 

I'm melting CrossCreek's Zucchini Strudel Bars from a generous CF friend. [smilie=th_teks0311] Luv...luv this one - sooooo good! [smilie=th_ecd36868]

melted LSC's orange danish. I get a great throw from her melts for the first hour, then basic vanilla for hours. Maybe I'm too critical or expecting too much????? I think I'm back to burning candles--constant, reliable scent until it's gone (with the right brands, of course)

I am surprised to hear that! :( I have great luck with LSC tarts.

Karen...I would say its moderate in strength but I only used two small pieces...it might have been stronger if I used all of it!

McCalls is coming? [smilie=th_WooHooRainbowWaveJack

Hahaha! Maybe I should! :) Oh...the DH is a character alright!

I know what you mean about the teas though...the herbal teas have a strong floral note. I did enjoy the Tea Cakes...I didn't get any cake scent but it is very unique!

 

Still enjoying my earlier scents...Sugar & Spice and Snickerdoodle.

Shorty, my laptop did arrive - today instead of yesterday. Fortunately it was early enough that someone was home to sign!

 

Tonight is Green Amber from BRH. Not as strong as some of her tarts.

Good Morning All! [smilie=th_oregonian_mornincoffe

Didn't get a wink of sleep last night due to the snoring bear laying in the bed next to me. Surprisingly, I am wide awake which just means...by 4 o'clock today I'll be [smilie=th_offtobed]

 

Laurie...I'm not Mala but I think SD is Skin Dazzles! ;)

 

This morning I'm gonna put on some LSC:

Snickerdoodle Drizzle Bread all over! [smilie=th_76d65c2f]

 

Have a good one! :)
