Good morning everyone!

It's rainy here (not complaining, it could have been snow instead) and I'm wearing my favorite rainy-weather scent, L'Ombre Dans L'Eau.

RHM, limestone is alkaline as I'm sure you are aware, and roses prefer slightly acid soil. If you plant any new bushes, amend the soil to a pH of 6.0-7.0 (6.5 is optimal for roses).

Twolf, yes, the warehouse clubs do charge a fee-- but we buy so much there that it works out. Probably three visits a year would not be worth joining for.

Edit: How did I miss Sunnyfunny's return? Welcome back, girl!

Yay, the sun always shines when Sunnyfunny is here!

I'm still in yesterday afternoon's EL Sensuous Nude. The ELs don't want to fade away gently, they most be power washed off. Still gray here though the rain has finally stopped. I may go for TDC's Bois d'Iris again, from my sample. I love, love, love it.

Good morning, everyone -

I'm in Chanel 1932, which has actually started to distinguish itself enough to rank among my very favorite Chanels ...I'm so glad I gave this another chance, thanks of course to my sweet mother. ♥

Y'all have a great day!




Hi there, Sunnyfunny - it's so good to see you! I hope you're planning to stick around for a while!

A very beautiful morning here, sunny and mild. It's been melting a little the last
few days, so it makes me hopeful that the worst of winter is over.

Welcome back, Sunnyfunny, so good to see you here again!!




Wearing Guerlain L'Instant this morning.

Wanted something subtle today (plus most of my scents are in boxes - TOMORROW is moving day...ack!)

Wearing:

Chakra 1 Balancing Body Mist by Aveda



Lot's of vetiver, but it fades into the background nicely. Later on I'll dab on some samples from the Men's Sample Pass to liven things up.

So nice to see Sunnyfunny back in 'da house. ((bear hugs))

I like how some TF fragrances multitask, producing not just layers but multi-verses. Rubber tires, machine oil, sweet flowers. Yep, works for me.

Good afternoon/evening! I have been layering Donna Karan Gold
with her Wenge - wonderful sillage and staying power! I thoroughly
recommend this mixture to everyone.

Switching to HdP 1969 for the afternoon.

Evangeline and Cello, agree with you totally about 1932, the more I wear it the more I like it.

I am literally SURROUNDED by boxes, last minute taping here and there, moving truck arrives tomorrow at 8 am, I took the day off work tomorrow. Needing something calming and light, on my last evening in my home:

Lavender Toilet Water (vintage) by Crabtree & Evelyn



Tonight, for bed, I'll douse myself with Shalimar, of course.

((hugs to all))
