The (almost) daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 22 May 2020 12 Comments

I have been painting my kitchen this week and too distracted to lemm anything (other than having someone else paint my kitchen), but an email from Arielle Shoshana this morning took care of that: "Régime des Fleurs' new Acanthus candle smells like sticking your head into a lilac bush and breathing deeply. It smells like a 70º April day, warm breeze tugging at the last of the cherry blossom petals. It smells like the spring we missed this year." Aha. $95.

      Plus, lid. All candles should come with lid.

    Oh my, this is so tempting! Has anyone smelled this or other candles from this brand?

    I’ve been threatening to paint my kitchen for the past two months. Good for you, Robin!

      HA, 2 months is nothing — I painted the cabinets a full year ago and am just getting around to the walls.

      But it is HORRID so thank you for saluting me. I have a relatively small kitchen but it has 5 doors and 2 windows, each with full classical craftsman trim.

      I will probably not do my pantry for another year :-)

        Oh no! Your comment just added at least another month for me! 😂

          LOL — I don’t know, it’s a toss up! Annoying project vs covid-19 boredom? And of course, when it’s done you’ll be so pleased! There is nothing like a brand new coat of paint to make a room look better.
