"The Ex Libris candle is part of the Modern Alchemy collection by D. L. & Co. In this candle, antiquated leather-bond volumes of handmade papers and parchment permeate and seduce the senses."

I'm sold. I want one of these candles.

I think it must be the weather changing. It's officially fall.

What about this one:

"D.L. & Co's Modern Alchemy Salem candle is infused with scents of New England maple, hickory and walnut and are set ablaze in a ravenous bonfire consuming the imagination."

(Call me warped, but the name just cracks me up!)

Have you discovered any new "wants" for the season?

Pour yourself another cup of coffee, wrap up in your favorite throw and tell me all about it.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Everyone, check yourself today.

(Men can get breast cancer too!

Statistically, 440 men will die this year as a result of breast cancer.

Imagine that.)

20-something gals can get it too. Yall be aware!

Bathroom Fabulosity

I'm having a fit over this bath. Don't you just love how one has a view showering or at the lavatory? This is wonderful.

Anyone have the source information for this design or photograph? I'd really like to to give credit to the amazing designer.

What Were They Thinking?

Betty, Peggy, and Don. We need to talk.

What were you thinking?

How about embracing who you really are?

I am so sucked into this show--and I adore it!

Betty is always a vision. Duck and Peggy's hotel bedroom was a great and how does Don's hair still look good?

Any other fans out there?

West Coast Response

Cracking Up

It may be an advertisement, but it sure is funny. This is for all the prepsters.

Pea Green

Pea green with envy of this sunny dry garden. We are about to build an ark over here.

What about you? Has the rain kept you from your garden playtime?

I donned my Wellies and got out and played on Saturday. I was a child again.

(A special thanks to my two pals that joined me in the puddles. Didn't we have a ball?)

The rain isn't all bad, you know. If we didn't have the rain, how would we have the green?
