Good Morning.

 

Melting EW's Hearth and Home this morning. My parents are still here. We made 4 batches of cookies this weekend, shopped and decorated the tree. We are tired, but it was a lot of fun!

 

I only burned a few tealights and candles this weekend, so I must get busy this week with the melting!

 

Have a great Monday everyone.

Good morning! It's a cold one here in NC, too. So far, it's s** on the beach from missy's tempting tarts in the living room. I'm icing the other melters, so I'll get them started in a bit.

 

Have a great day, everyone!

I'm melting Eggnog from Cozy Cottage. It smells fabulous. I received my holiday tart tin from Cozy Cottage on Saturday and everything smells so good cold. The Eggnog is the first one I've melted.

Had to dump Cottage Christmas. No throw at all. ;) I've moved onto Gingerbread Kids from CHC. Much better.

Today it's YC Silver Bells in the melter. It's in the 60's today, but ridiculously windy. Tomorrow, a 70 percent chance of snow! Oklahoma weather is so bipolar.

LLVV, okay girl, spill it! How do you make an EGG NOG LATTE??? That sounds delish! It is just egg nog and coffee or what??? I gotta know! hehehe.....I am drooling here.

 

Today I only have my Warm Glow Snickerdoodle candle lit and it smells heavenly! It is not a super strong scent, but it is very pleasant and I get whiffs of it every now and then. Really enjoying it a lot. The candle is so pretty and it's burning very nicely too. It's not sooty at all and the edges are folding in nicely by themselves. I am going to order another one of these for sure. I still have the Evening Mocha and the Nutmeg & Cream one to burn yet.....yum.

Evening melts are from Kountry Lights...bayberry and sugared spruce. These are old tarts, and they are still strong!

All afternoon, I've been melting coca cola from prairie soy in an electric melter (15 watt, I think). Anyway, this is after melting it through 2 tealights a couple of days ago. This tart is still super strong...actually, I think it's stronger now than it was the other day. I'm very impressed! Although, right now, it's kind of being overshadowed by dinner. LOL!

It's actually quite simple but you need some equipment. Four years ago, right before DD was born, DH and I invested in an espresso machine that Starbucks was selling. It says Starbucks on it but it's made by Saeco. It's a semi-automatic espresso machine. Unfortunately, Starbucks doesn't sell it anymore but you can get a similar Delonghi machine from them or Williams Sonoma sells a bunch of models. Anyway, you squirt 3 squirts of Eggnog syrup into a mug (bought mine from DaVinci...but Starbucks also sells delicious syrups but not the egg nog one. You can buy Gingerbread from them and make a Gingerbread latte with it). Then you pour an espresso shot into the mug and stir. Froth your milk and pour into the mug. Yummy! We did the numbers and buying the machine would pay off in less than a year based on our former Starbucks habit. If your buy a lot of drinks from Starbucks you may want to look into buying a machine. It's expensive but will pay off very quickly. It makes a nice Christmas gift. The barista at Starbucks actually told me exactly how to make the drinks. Gotta love trade secrets.

 

Tonight's melts are 2 yummy ones...Pumpkin Flapjacks (smells wonderful with my meatballs and tomato sauce) and Chocolate Mint.

LLVV - that eggnog latte sounds delish! So does the gingerbread - yum!
