The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 30 October 2019 7 Comments

Diptyque gets a lot of play in the daily lemming because they keep making things I want, or at least, that look from the picture like I might well want them. (Amount of money I have actually spent on Diptyque products this year: $0.) Here's a particularly silly one, since I need a snow globe about as much as I need a hole in the head, and it isn't even scented so it has no real business here, but there it is. "Each figure in the snow globe embodies a wish for the holidays and the year to come. The green jasper beetle, the tiger, and the shooting star symbolize protection. The crossed fingers, Japanese cat, four-leaf clover, and the Asian elephant symbolize luck. The ladybug, crane, horseshoe, swallow, and holly symbolize harmony." $85 smackeroos, will make all your dreams come true, and matches the 2019 holiday candles and candle carousel.

      Better that way, you don’t even have to go to the trouble of picking it up and shaking it.

    Oh, that does look lovely!
    It also looks like a very expensive cat toy!

      Ha, that is possibly just what it would turn out to be.

    I finally managed to acquire one of the candle carousels. I’ve been trying to buy one for years, but they always sell out so fast! Thank you, Nordstrom. 🙂

    I have two globes that did not get downsized or given away. Pure sentiment they are and that’s okay. Just not going to add any.
