What's that smell?

Long gone are the days looking for a lighter to light that candle in your house.Insert Scentsy a safe, wickless alternative to scented candles. I'm absolutly sold on this product. I have 2 Full size warmers and 1 Plug in warmer. It's real simple to use, you take the Scented Wax of your choice which are called Scentsy Bar's, and place a few cubes in the dish that sits upon the warmer and turn the warmer on. The warmer itself does not get hot enough to burn you, nor does the wax, I tested it myself. This is great for all the parents and pet owners out there because it's flame less no need to worry about kitty's tail or whisker's. My favorite scent right now is Eskimo Kiss. I have some friends that are consults for Scentsy, please feel free to visit their pages under Where to by stuff. I also have decided to host a basket party myself, to help spread the word of Scentsy and why I like it so much. You can find my basket party here.

I'M ENCHANTED WITH THIS

Be come enchanted with this new fragrance from Bath and Body works. I'm usually not a big fan of most of the fragrances from Bath and Body works, so when I find one I love I shout it from the roof tops. Be Enchanted reminds of all things Disney Princess. It takes my to that place that Disney has created for all the Princesses a place of enchantment, Prince Charming and talking mice.

Making a come back!!

More to come.

EXPRESS: BELTED SLEEVELESS DRESS

Love this dress! I saw this dress as I was walking by Express and had to try it on, in pink (my fav color). I need a dress for an upcoming May wedding. This dress by itself is a little to0 low cut as is, however the store associate suggested trying it with a lace cami underneath. I didn't have time at the moment to go back in the dressing room and change again as this was just a spur of the moment thing. I plan on going back and trying it with the cami as suggested. So stay tuned for the next round I have with this dress, now to think of what shoes I can wear?

Lucky Magazine

Do you ever wonder who wins those giveaways in the magazines? We the answer is me! I have won twice now and Lucky mag is the mag for me. It's like a little surprise in the mail. I signed up for their give aways every month. One day I received a box in the mail and had no idea who it was from I opened it and there was a letter saying I had won one of their give aways. It was some great lotion and body wash (more on that in another post). Well the other day I received another box in the mail and again I had won this time it was makeup (again more on that once I get a chance to test it out). So I recommend Lucky mag not only for the great ideas and product info, but for their giveaways!

Kohl's Department Stores

I now work at Kohl's and before now I had never really been in one. I'll have to say I'm impressed. They have really great stuff at great prices. So check them out of you have a store in your area. Let me know what you think.

FIJI Natural Artesian Water

Now I'm not one to buy bottle water. we have a great filtration system, however I do buy this water every now and then. I love this water, the taste is so pure and soft. So if you want to treat yorself pick up a bottle one day and give it try you won't be disappointed.

iPod displays a sad iPod icon

Ok so my hubby's IPOD is sad. We have the sad IPOD icon show up on his IPOD. So I went to the apple website and looked up what to do. To my surprise there was nothing I could do. It has to be sent off for service. Well I bought it for him in Dec of 06 so We are still under the 1 year warrenty. I sent in a service request on Wed. and yesterday I received the box I need to ship to them in. They send everything needed to pack it nice and secure. They even send tape to seal the box with and prepaid postage. I have to send it back VIA DHL and they say it will take a week. If they can't fix it they send a new one. It may not be brand new they said it will be just like the one we sent in. I'll be sure to keep ypu posted on how everything goes. But so far things are going great!!!

ANOTHER GREAT BAG FROM DOONEY!

Here is what I really want for Mother's day. I love Dooney and Bourke. However they aren't the cheapest handbag in the world nor are they the most expensive. So I only get one once a year. Well not with this bag. It's only $65.00 and it's very cute. It's made out of Clear flexible acrylic. Which is great for the beach or just a day out and about. What makes this bag great for mother's is we all know we carry stuff for our kids in our handbags. I have crayons, toy cars and them annoying McDonalds toys. Plus a sippy cup of water for when they get thristy right when you are busy shopping. I've had spills, crayon marks, and oil from the little toy cars wheels mess up a handbag before. With this one you can wipe it clean and go on. They have a few differnt patterns this one just happens to be my Fav.

UPDATE

Hello all I'm only going to say this once. Listen carefully I'll be turning 30 on the 5th. There I said it. Ok really I have no issue with turning 30. But to celebrate this milestone in my life the hubby and I are going to celebrate at the Hershey Hotel and Spa. The reservations are made my mom is watching the kids. The great part about it is Hershey PA is only 20 miles from us. So check back to see how many stars I give it. In the mean time enjoy their website. It just makes you crave chocolate.
Here it is the I LOVE THIS PLACE!! For all of you thinking of a great mother’s day gift this would be one. When we arrived they took us to our respected locker rooms, men’s and women’s, you get a nice cozy robe and slippers to wear. The locker rooms are great. They have bottled water and of course Chocolate kisses for you to enjoy. If it's your 1st time there they show around. In the lockers rooms they have a steam room which was a great way to end the day. While waiting to start your treatment you can enjoy one of the many rooms they have. A silent room where it's completely silent in there. A quite room just light chatter. Where they have teas, water, and stuff to snack on and of course chocolate. The inhalation room which is wonderful way to clear you sinus and relax. I did the Hershey Kiss package.
Spa Rain Shower- Our signature shower treatment combines a Swiss Shower, Deluge Shower, and Scotch Spray. Enjoy the waters within a circular, mosaic tiled shower with 16 showerheads, while your technician gently alternates water temperatures from warm to cool and back again. This unique shower treatment is popular in Europe for increasing circulation and strengthening the immune system. Included is a massage with the Scotch Spray that will revive the body. A wonderfully revitalizing service and the perfect way to start a spa day. I need one of these installed in my house. I loved this the best I think. I had water coming at me from every angle it felt like I was standing under a warm waterfall then on to the
Milk & Honey Soak- Milton Hershey built his chocolate factory here in the abundant farmlands of Pennsylvania to ensure a fresh, quality supply of milk. Known since the times of Cleopatra for its skin softening and soothing properties, our milk and honey bath is another signature spa experience. This was great also and of course there were more kisses to eat while relaxing in the tub. Last but not least
50-minute Cocoa Massage- Only in Hershey, Pennsylvania are you able to relax AND enjoy chocolate without a single calorie. Our signature chocolate scented massage oil along with a classic Swedish massage will surely soothe your senses. This was the perfect way to end the day. I swear the chocolate scented oil was to die for. Just laying there with the sent of cocoa all around you. It didn't smell to sweat or overpowering but just right. I wish we had the funds to makes this a once a week deal because it was great and I would go once a week if I could. So for all you mothers out there tell them The Hershey spa is the best mother’s day gift out there. :)
