I LOVE chocolate...like I cannot even explain. Sometimes I have it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or all of the above...I know it is NOT good for me, but like I already mentioned, it is a problem. However I found chocolate that is not bad for me. Victoria's Secret has a series of Mood Slow Melt candles and in this series they have a CHOCOLATE candle! I think it is the best thing I have ever smelled, other than my boyfriend ;) It is not overwhelming, not too sweet at all. I had one a couple years ago and have not been able to find them in stores anymore. I recently found them on Ebay for half the original cost, only $13! So I ordered one for my mom and kept one for myself. I set mine out on the coffee table, at which I am always sitting, and I have not even lit it yet. It really just smells so delicious just sitting there. It is a non-stop chocolate fix. It is heaven, I really cannot explain how much I love this candle. So check it out, it would be a great gift for any chocolate lover :)


Has anyone seen this?!?!?

Tonite I want to share two of new favorite Aveda products. These are great ideas for yourself or would be perfect gift ideas with the holidays around the corner.






First item is Aveda's Himalayan Glow candle. It is a soy wax aroma candle with organic clove, vanilla, and cinnamon aroma. This candle smells amazing! It is very fragrant, but not overpowering. This aroma smells like the holidays! But wait, my favorite thing about this candle is not just the scent, but it doubles as a dry skin treatment. Yes mam. At the salon we give hand treatments all day with the wax from these candles, and let me tell ya, clients love it! First you light the candle and let it burn for a little bit, until the melted wax starts to pool up. Then, without touching the flame, dip your finger into the melted wax. The wax will be warm but not too hot to touch at all. Then rub the wax where ever needed, hands, feet, elbows, knees. It is very relaxing because the wax is warm, and very soothing from the soy wax. Plus, it leaves your skin smelling great! I love giving hand massages with this also because at the same time I am giving myself a moisture treatment :) So please check this out, it is wonderful. Just stop by your local Aveda store, or email me and I can get ya one and ship it for free! By the way, this candle is limited edition, so you can only get now before the holidays, but it comes in nice holiday packaging.

And my other new favorite item is Aveda's blue oil balancing concentrate.



This is a stress relieving oil that helps raise energy levels. Oh my gosh, this is like miracle oil. If you are feeling stressed out or tense, rub this oil on your temples or other pressure points like between your thumb and forefinger if you have a headache. This oil feels great on contact because it has peppermint, you will feel a cooling, tingling sensation. It actually has blue camomile for soothing and peppermint to refresh you. Or if you are feeling stressed, rub some on the palms of your hands, cup your hands together and place over your face covering your nose and mouth. Then inhale and exhale a few times, instant stress reliever! I am telling you this stuff works. I also give clients a neck and scalp massage with this oil, and everyone loves it, especially after a hard day's work. The blue oil is now in a convenient small size with a roller ball applicator. It easily fits in your pocket or purse.

I love these. I hope you check them out and enjoy them as much as I do.

Today is Puppers' Birthday!!!

Today you are ONE, a little boy you have become...





Seems like yesterday
Off for a road trip, we begun
Once we arrived, you just wanted to play
Our experience that day was a snip of what to come

So began our journey home
Forward on, life was not the same
Your preciousness sat there in Daddy’s lap, as the sun through the window shone
Fun & Laughter, Love & Joy, our memories from you…we have gained

We have never looked back
Life before you, we cannot recall
Together we live- this is our pack
Oh Puppers you are such a doll!

Today we give you lots of kisses
And for your life, all the best wishes!

Happy Birthday Babies!!!!




I am starting a new blog for him...

So later I will have his birthday celebration pics posted :)

YUM-O!

This hot cocoa with a hint of peppermint is so yummy. Especially with the holidays right around the corner. I don't know why but peppermint is a Christmas time flavor for me. At Christmas I always make a peppermint pie, I will share the recipe when Christmas gets nearer. Anywho, try this cocoa it is very good. And I got it on sale because Linens and Things is going out of business, $7.99 for a tin. It would also be a nice addition to a holiday gift basket.
