Nuttin better than a Yankee Candle.

I just realized yankee candle is an actual company that makes candles. I originally thought you had a New York Yankee novelty candle.

I’m trying 2 drops of the Alpine strawberry in a 15ml bottle. Now I need to add the yogurt and steep. Gonna cross fingers.

Oh,yes. It’s a big company with it’s main store down in Mass. I’m kinda surprised you didn’t know that.

cereal is correct. I spent all day at the emergency vet with my guy Joe (cat) and crying my eyes out and my brain was mush by the time I got home. He stayed in the hospital.

Oh no! Poor, sweet snack stealing Joe .How is he this morning? (If the answer is later in the thread, sorry)

I got a letter yesterday from my employer and it lets me pick a gift for retiring. We got these every 5 years also but there's a few nice things there like a Howard Miller Mantle Clock and a Capresso Espresso Machine. I am trying to choose between those two for now.

I guess I am not up to date on quality candle manufactures.

Guessing it’s not at the top of your interests.

Wow, that’s very nice of them. Pick wisely.

They have stores here. It’s been a while but I’ve been to one with my wife.

I’d probably go with the espresso machine. My company gives a small check and a gift every year after 10. Each time it’s been a clock with an inscription on a plaque.

I want the espresso machine and the wife prefers the mantle clock. The clock will last forever but the espresso machine probably not. I am thinking of getting the clock if she lets me buy a espresso machine, I miss my Americano drinks.

That sounds like a fair compromise. Hopefully she agrees.

I like a good candle as much as the next person. Except I don't care for scented candles. They sometimes make me sneeze.

That's too bad.

Well,I opened the Alpine sb and it has a very strong smell. Tasted a bit I got on my finger and it was a bit unpleasant. I’ll be going with drops as suggested by SMT.

I always taste test flavors too, but Alpine OMG yuck. I taste tested a very tiny bit when I got it. Unpleasant is too kind, but accurate if followed by several words. It felt like my tongue was on fire. I will never forget that taste. Reading your post brought it right back.

Alpine SB and yogurt sounds good.

So glad to hear its not just me.
