It's Tuesday and World Heart Day. Take care of your heart, folks! Birthdays today: Elizabeth Gaskell, Colin Dexter and Diana Vreeland. What fragrance are you wearing?
I am in Maya Njie Vanilj, which I bought unsniffed after Jessica's review. I literally put it on 2 minutes ago, but so far, yum, cardamom. (And speaking of buying unsniffed, don't, and Donatella will be dropping by on Thursday.) Tea at the moment is Organic Tippy Colombian from Upton, with a little shave of nutmeg.
Reminder: on 10/2, our subject is On the back roads by the rivers of my memory...do what you like with the lyric from the 1968 song Gentle on My Mind. Suggested by Mossyberry.
And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2020, where I'll try (but frequently fail) to always have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.
Note: the limited edition Pullman Railway Carriage teapot is £99 at Ceramic Inspirations in the UK.
I am wearing Mitsouko, because mayfly wore it yesterday.
I was thinking of wearing that yesterday!
And I am joining you. I have a large sample and always before, I’ve thought nope. But today… never say never.
What do we think – EDT vs EDP? If I buy, it will be the modern version from discounters as I don’t have the patience to search for vintage (unless I run across some at a garage sale).
Glad to hear you are enjoying Mitsouko today!
I have the EDP (I think my bottle is around 6-7 years old). I am not sure I actually tried the EDT (maybe I forgot?). At least not lately… Unfortunately Mitsouko is hard to find in stores here. A side-by-side test would be interesting.
EDP for me. I have both. EDT is crisper and good in summer or spring. EDP has a creamier dry down which has me sniffing my arm throughout the day on colder days like today.
Me too! After all those warm days I forgot how amazing it can be on a chilly day.
Perfect time of year for Mitsouko.
In Amouage Lyric.
Happy Tuesday! ?
Lyric is an oldie but goodie!
I find the newest releases from Amouage are not as interesting as the old ones. Lyric is a big favorite of mine!
I lost interest pretty much after Honour. Honour was a marked change in Amouage. Honour is good but everything else they released after was too generic, hardly worth the name Amouage.
I totally agree with you. I love Honour, but after everything from Amouage has been likes, not loves. I own few of the new ones, which I enjoy, but not as much as Gold, Jubilation 25, Lyric, etc and the Library collection, which is so beautiful!
Would you include Beloved as being too generic? I kind of achter in that the older Amouages seemed more complex, but I think Beloved belongs there as well. I happen to really like Myths Woman as well, but it does not have that typical richness the older events had.
Achter = agree
Beloved is kind of iffy on skin. I think it’s the herbal aspect that rubs me wrong.
I wore that all weekend. I can’t get enough of that amazing drydown.
The drydown is heavenly! That’s what I love the most from Lyric.
It has to be much cooler for me to wear Lyric, or it will wear me!
I love that teapot!
SOTD is Felanilla which I’ve been neglecting for a while.
Tea is a lavender oolong by Palais des Thés.
Oh yes, I will soon wear this too when I get home from France
You smell wonderful. It’s not yet cool enough here for Felanilla, but I’ll bide my time!
You smell wonderful!
Must find my decant of Felanilla!
You smell wonderful! I will be digging that one out soon — one of my fall / winter go-to perfumes!
Chirping noise
Lemming created.
I’m wearing Fat Electrician, from a new decant. So far, I’ve only dabbed from my discovery set. I’m not sure that I like it. I’m also planning to buy a decant of Like This, which I think I’ll like better.
Like This is wonderful especially in the fall
Strong maple scented.
And that’s exactly why I can’t wear it! Boo.
Ooh, Like This is amazing.
Hi all!
Wearing a touch of Bois de Violette today, just a dab on my wrists. I’m baking up my focaccia this afternoon so I wanted something that will be gone by then. After that, who knows? I’ve been in a vintage Poison mood to be honest….
I was thinking about dropping cauliflower and anchovy fillets in the dough of my focaccia. I love that there are so many possibilities.
Have a great day!
Mr L also loves to make focaccia..we usually do Italian spices, rosemary or my favorite zaatar
Sounds lovely! I wish I had some rosemary at the moment.
Try zaatar, if you can find it. It gives the focaccia a middle eastern flare..Or another thing I do is make focaccia normally and then add zaatar to the olive oil I dip it in.
I love zaatar! I don’t usually buy it premixed but I always have the components. Sumac I’d one of my favorite spices. ?
Anchovy focaccia sounds almost like you’re approaching a pissaladiere! Yum, now I want some of that.
I’ll report back!
Sounds wonderful! Yum!
Thank you!
We like anchovies and capers plus cherry tomatoes
Oh I do have capers!
I like the anchovies idea. I always add rosemary and slivered scallions. Yum. Now I want focaccia for lunch.
I’m pretty excited! My first focaccia at home.
Rosemary and chives for me.
I know what you mean about being careful of fragrance on your wrist while kneading dough! When I was making bread a couple of times a week, I’d use my shoulders and elbow crooks for testing.
Enjoy your baking! ?
Sounds delicious!
I’ve had focaccia with Parmesan cheese and sun dried tomatoes before. Delicious!
I’m not sure there are any bad choices for focaccia toppings!
Ohhhh, vintage Poison is gorgeous!
Now I
Want focaccia, with anchovies and balsamic vinegar.?
Vintage Poison is an all-time favorite.
I got the Esprit d’Ete today! Can’t wait to try.
Testing Shalimar EdP on one arm, Le Lion on the other
The opening for Shalimar is more lemony, Le Lion has more smoke.
Now its been a few hours, Shalimar is at its vanilla skin scent phase and Le Lion is now leather and patchouli.
The lasting power of Le Lion is pretty impressive on my scent eating skin.
In other news, some NYC hoods have a rise in COVID cases and governor meatball is threatening a shut down. Mask on, use Italian gestures to express yourself.
Be safe out there!
Between kids in school and the Jewish holidays I’m not surprised at all. For Rosh Hashanah I saw many large gatherings in the streets, at least outdoors but still risky.
Our co. just had it’s latest town hall and still no plans to go back to the office.
I saw the same in our neighborhood for the Rosh Hashanah, but I think the cases are outside the island in Manhattan and in other communities in Brooklyn.
Yes, Montreal is back in the red zone, we are shut down again except for essentials.
Wow..didn’t know that..sorry to hear
I’m glad you’ll get to leave soon!
Oh my gosh, I love this post, I can see you with mask and gloves doing one of my grandparents gestures!
I love Le Lion, I’ll save you a place in line when it’s available in the US (or vice versa cara)
I am glad that you like it. I still don’t see the Coromandel comparison but I am awaiting a small decant to do a proper test. We didn’t get along in years past.
Divertiti

Love it!
Thanks for the comparison!
Tomorrow I will do another comparison..
New Jersey has had a spike in CV-19 cases recently, too.
Broken record this week so far,but Red Musk is hitting all the right spots for me this week!
Happy Tuesday!
XO
Hitting all the right spots is a good thing. Ciao!
I’ve been wearing perfumes sequentially like that all summer. It’s been nice and somehow comforting.
A hot day coming again in SoCal. Maybe some box of eels since it is lovely no matter what.
Must….get….mitts….on…..le lion.
I wonder if they will release Le Lion in the states
I emailed Chanel the other day, LTSG
They said no release date for US yet.
I think someone mentioned they got their sample off of the evilbay.
I am still waiting for the new Shalimar flanker to arrive. They said Sept, but now its almost October and no word from BG, where I bother the sales associates constantly
I bother them too.
Yes to the hot day in SoCal. Ugh. I could really use some fall temps in my life.
I will send them right over!??
Woke up in Coco Mademoiselle this morning. It’s funny how I hated it before but now really enjoy it. Wearing a tiny dab of Deneuve today.
I haven’t sniffed CM in forever. I should try it again. You smell great in Deneuve.
I do like smelling CM on other people, I just can’t wear it myself.
Good morning Y’all,
Decided to attack the rainy gray morning with Narciso Rodriguez Fleur Musc….good stuff! I feel very ladylike and posh!
We are looking at a rainy afternoon, so I will have to think of something ladylike and posh myself
Another adorable tea pot! I wonder how many tea pots Englander’s own on average. For them it’s the whole experience, right? Set the pot out on a table and enjoy this as well as some biscuits
SOTD: Chergui
Smelling awesome.
Seriously! Somebody must buy all these teapots.
I slept so good last night, I didn’t wake up once! It’s cool but the sun is out, and I have nothing pressing on the agenda. Tommorow will be my busy day with appointments.
I wanted to wear my BBW Praline and Pear body lotion, so I matched it with Angel Muse.
You smell yummy. Glad you had a good night!
Thank you!
You smell SO good! I love Angel Muse.
It’s so good and layers well with anything foody sweet.
So that’s where the sun went!? Enjoy! And glad you had a good nights sleep.
It was one of those days where the sun was shining depending on the direction you looked.
You needed that after yesterday. Yay for nothing on the agenda. I tried Angel Muse at the airport last year and really liked the top notes of fruit in the edt.
The edt never came to my town so I haven’t smelled it yet. I do love the edp though.
So glad you had an uneventful night, and are in chill mode. Good luck tomorrow. ?
Thanks! It’s going to be a long day.
I’m glad you had a great sleep!
Thank you!
Glad to hear that you slept well last night! ?
Thanks! A rare occasion, but I will take it.
I didn’t get a chance to comment yesterday but I’m glad you are fee!ing better and had a good sleep last night!
Hi all, my SOTD is Kate Walsh’s Boyfriend, perfume and body oil Copying SpringPansy’s perfume choice from yesterday.
I love that teapot! I’m a huge fan of trains.
Headed out to a doctor’s appointment. Flu shot and hoping to procure a medical exemption for jury duty. With my heath problems, the last thing I need is to be in a room full of people right now.
Have a great day all!
ST, still doing my toast every morning but may have to slow it down since I can’t exercise yet because of this pain in my back. I tried a new bread from a bakery that is excellent, I found it in union square. But its so so expensive.
I am Slowing down on the bread also. Getting fluffy…
You just reminded me I have to schedule my kid’s flu shots. Thanks!
I hope you get the exemption!
Fingers crossed you can get out of that jury duty!
The doc had no issues
With writing an exemption for me.
Yay! Glad to hear it.
w00t w00t!
You smell great – I’ll wear it again soon. Flu shot for me tomorrow. Good luck with jury duty.
I hope you can get out that jury duty too!?
Out *OF*?
I forgot about KW Boyfriend! I wonder if it can still be found at the discounters…
I don’t know about that, but they relaunched it and if you sign up for their newsletter they seem to have a sale every 20 minutes.
Oh I totally missed that it was relaunched. Does it compare well to the original version?
I never smelled the original. Maybe someone who has can compare them? I do really love the new version.
Good luck!
I hope that your doctor’s appointment went well today.
Thanks! It went well! I have my exemption from Jury duty, received my flu shot, and have my referral for a mammogram.
Got quite a bit accomplished today!
Iris Nazarena for a grey Tuesday.
One of the best contemporary orris perfumes in my opinion.
So unique with its ashy facet.
You smell fantastic! I agree is unique and one of the best orris out there!
+ONE (for emphasis)
Why thank you both pl67 & AngelaB
Also in iris: Prada on one arm and Annick Goutal on the other…
You smell nice. Which AG? L’Heure Exquise?
You smell great!
You smell amazing! I LOVE that perfume but haven’t been able to convince myself to pony up quite *that* much $$ yet.
That and Oeillet Bengale have been calling my name for a long time, but I’ve made do with samples.
Shalimar extrait yesterday and Genre today. Genre is sooo good. I love it every time I wear it. I usually save it for fall and winter and it’s not even close to those temps here right now. Still in the 90s, although it is cooling to the 50s and 60s at night.
I have to get my hands on some Shalimar extrait
I luckily have a bit from an awesome NSTer. It is pretty great.
Huge change in temps from the 90’s to the 50’s the same day! Hope fall arrives for you soon! ??
That’s the thing about the desert- wild temp swings from day to night!
Dark and rainy. I’m wearing Gourmand Coquin. We’re shut down again for the next month in Montreal due to Covid. I thought it might not happen until flu season got into full swing but no, here we are. 17 more days until we head out to California. Thank heavens for dual citizenship, the closed border doesn’t affect us.
I am so sorry for Montreal..good grief..just in time for Canadian Thanksgiving.
I am glad you are leaving soon, but since you are coming from a red zone don’t expect the USA to greet you with open arms. From friends that I know of that have traveled back in forth from Canada to USA found the USA side to be the most difficult. (but Canadians are notorious for being always nice all the time)
They do not have the right to refuse us entry, I don’t care how pleasant or not they are. Actually my experience has been that the Canadian border guards are far more persnickety than the American ones.
Yes, of course they cannot refuse, its against the law. You will probably smell so good both sides will treat you like royalty
LOL! I will have my husband wear SL Musc Koublai Khan, that should guarantee a swift passage.
Actually we’re not being that nice to Americans right now — there are stories of nasty notes and punctured tires, and a car with Texas plates got graffitied in Victoria just last week, I think. Our premier here in BC even took the step of telling people coming in from the U.S. to change their plates if they’re going to be living here. We saw a California car in the neighbourhood the other day with a big note stating that they’re here legally on on a work permit.
Yes, we are actually moving to Vancouver Island in April and the first thing we are going to do is register the car to get BC plates! With Quebec plates our car would probably be set on fire.
Let’s hope by April that no one feels threatened, at least by other Canadians! I’ve also heard the Island is a bit more laid-back on COVID right now, since they haven’t had as many cases…but of course, they’d like to keep it that way, too.
Oh this is a bummer to hear. A friend’s child just started school in Montreal and I had this worry that allowing students in, even with strict quarantines, might cause a problem. Glad that you get to go to warmer climes soon, but hope that CA is no longer on fire. These times.
Geez. What a bummer.
I was sorry to hear about the re-closure. I keep wondering when that’s coming out here in BC. My dual citizenship isn’t all that helpful right now, as we’d just go for a long weekend to see relatives and then would have to deal with the quarantine on return, so it doesn’t make sense.
Heading to (hopefully) sunny CA sounds wonderful!
It is hot and sunny for sure. We are staying for five months so hopefully things will be better in April.
Chypre Mousse for a grey day. We walked along the Canal de Bourgogne today and yesterday. Yesterday it was raining, today it luckily was dry and we walked 11km. Our house has a wood stove, so we can sit by the fire and be warm and cosy.
That sounds wonderful!
Wood stove heat is the best. Enjoy!
I want a wood stove in my next house.
I came across a description of Chypre mousse recently and was very intrigued. What do you make of it?
It’s very special. Don’t buy before testing. You are German, I gathered. I could send you a sample of you like
I live in Germany yes, and would love a sample if it’s no trouble, or happy to swap. Have a nice good time on your canal
Send me your Adress on tannina at the web in DE and I will send a sample after the holidays
I’m glad you’re enjoying your holiday! It sounds amazing.
TotD = Harney Hot Cinnamon & Sunset + cream oolong. Not sure I’m a fan of the Harney.
SotD = Bruno Fazzolari Room 237, not a fan of this either. Very clear note of plastic shower curtain, as promised. I’m calling it Opposite Day for the CP, since this is not gentle on my mind or skin. ?
Tomorrow I’ll finish testing the discovery set with Ummagumma, which will be much more appropriate!
I hope y’all have a great Tuesday!
The Harney sounds weird, or is that 2 different teas?
Just one. I found it at Target, so they may have a line that’s only sold there. It’s overly cinnamoned and not very strong. Sorry, more than you wanted to know!
No, not at all, it’s just interesting that they would add all those heavy spices to an oolong.
I just love Herney’s Hot Cinnamon Spice <3
I wish I could send you the canister! ?
That’s so sweet!
Luckily I can buy it in Poland too.
I am a Bruno Fazzalari fan, but hate hate hate Room whatever it is.
It’s National Coffee Day too, Robin!
I’m sampling Lost in Heaven, so far so good. I hope everyone has a peaceful day.
Oh how did I miss that? And where’s my latte??
Come on over, I’ve got your latte covered!
Yup! A friend brought some cake to have along the coffee on our coffee break at work.
My IG was covered with coffee photos this morning. None of them mine..
I have no idea how I got wind about it!
The terrestrial radio station I listen to in the morning mentioned National Coffee Day. ☕
What a great pick Robin. I am hoping to catch a sniff of some samples at Arielle’s shop very soon. It’s great to see reactions ‘live’.
My SoTD is a sample of Xerjoff’s 1861 Renaissance. The dry down is even better than the opening. it’s a lovely soft powder, I am off to Fragrantica to help me remember it’s contents. The opening is a truly beautifully behaved lemons citrus, not tart not sweet, perhaps a meyer lemon feel. I know nothing about this brand and it’s too expensive but I had to know alittle bit more. Tomorrow is the famed Naxos. Please I must hide from Donatella. My decants are filling up all my cigar boxes. Now I need to alphabetize them somehow.
Maybe I am in a ‘perfumedemic’?
You know Donatella forgives all! And she does it twice during pandemics
I guess I can come of hiding then.
Wearing St. Clair Eve since it came up during the weekend poll since it has an apple note. I could see buying a small bottle of this after I finish my sample.
That’s my favorite one of hers! I bought the small bottle and wear it so often it’s already halfway empty!
It’s so very good and wearable. I love all phases of it.
That’s a beauty.
Eau des Merveilles.? The sun came out briefly this morning and now the clouds are back. Ugh. Yesterday was dreary and it rained all afternoon. It was the kind of day that called for sweatpants, chain-drinking tea, and an afternoon game of scrabble. I lost. No big surprise there, but I was ahead at one point so there is hope yet!
That sounds like a perfect day!
Oooh, you smell divine!!! Sounds like a great way to spend a rainy day.
SotD = Assam of India now + 4711 for later
Tea on Tuesday feels right and will keep me cool later as temps reach for 100! I’m sipping sencha green tea this morning, and there’s more on ice for later.
I watched My Octopus Teacher and highly recommend it if deep dives (ha!) into the animal world appeal to you. Here’s a peek via kottke:
https://kottke.org/20/09/my-octopus-teacher
Hope you’ll enjoy it, too.
Assam of India… mmm…
mmm mmm mmmm!
?? for iced green tea!
I saw that on Kottke and made a mental note to watch it! This makes me want to see it more…
I hope you will enjoy it! I’ve watched parts of it twice. The underwater views are beautiful.
Trying two from Gallagher today…Behold Patchouli and Bergamust.
I will start w/ Bergamust as it’s mostly Bergamust Not for me. It has “sea notes” according to Fragrantica which equals strong fabric softener/dryer sheets to my nose…maybe it will settle down…dare to dream…
Behold Patchouli is spicy patch, amber, chocolate and orange so far. Kind of a dusty smell to it. I shall see how it progresses but it’s no Wicked Good so far which was pretty much instant nirvana for me.
Behold Patchouli has warmed and sweetened up nicely on my skin now and I am quite enjoying it.
Bergamust Not is still sharp and though I blamed it on the sea notes above it probably is just too much orange blossom for my tender nose.
I have high hopes for Behold* Patchouli.
*To my detriment, I’m now stuck with thinking that the name is Beyond Patchouli ?
Verdict: quite good. Not clean or head shop patchouli but more spicy, smoky patchouli with chocolate and citrus wafting in and out that gets sweeter as it wears. Might need more of this Beyond Patchouli. ?
I didn’t like Bergamust either. Glad the patchouli turned out okay for you.
Yes, I am more and more impressed as it progresses…kind of a sweet, spicy and smoky patchouli.
Verdict: quite good. Not clean or head shop patchouli but more spicy, smoky patchouli with chocolate and citrus wafting in and out that gets sweeter as it wears. Might need more.
Strong fabric softener is an immediate turn off for me. Thanks for taking one for the NST team!
I hate the smell of fabric softener. I have to use unscented.
I have one kind that I use, and I use the smallest amount marked on the inside of the cap.
Survived the move and have liberated about half of my perfumes from moving boxes. Wearing Prada Infusion d’Oeliet while waiting for the internet people to get here.
I feel like I will be unpacking boxes for weeks!
I hope they all arrive safe and leak-free!!
Glad you made it home safe, hope all the perfumes did too.
Yay for getting moved in!
Congrats on the move!
Hope the unpacking goes faster than you think!
SOTD is Jasmin Antique by Manual Cross. I am smelling a dense, realistic jasmine, that lasts and keeps a little scent bubble 5 hours and walk from the first few sprays. Some spicy and sweet notes pop in. I like it a lot but it may not turn into a love.
That sounds pretty good. I like a scent bubble!
Sometimes having a scent you like a lot instead of loving means it gets worn more often…
We had snow all day yesterday and it is still biting outside, not great for the spring lambs. Happy birthday to Mrs Gaskell. I have her Bronte biography and Cranford. I am wearing Songes for a hint of colour. Keep warm!
Oh, I miss snow. I’m sorry it’s at the wrong time for the lambs.
I love her Bronte biography. Also the longer novels, if you are ever in the mood for such, are really good, especially North and South. Underrated!
Snow! It must have been mis-delivered, as I’m sure it was meant for me.
The snow will be heading up here to Canada soon, the geese are all heading south.
Did you ever read Wives and Daughters? There was a lovely BBC series of it.
I’m wearing vintage Coco, from a vial Alyssa Harad gave me. Quite fabulous.
I read her book, and loved it, so I guess I’m fangirling your post. It took me forever to finish because I doled it out to myself a couple of pages a day. Didn’t want it to end.
You smell lovely in vintage Coco! ?
She’s also such a lovely and generous person!
Wearing Les Nereides Imperial Opoponax (now just Opoponax for the modern version) I understand only this older version smells like Shalimar, it’s nicely smoky in the drydown but overall less balanced than Shalimar.
I’m wearing Cologne pour le Soir this morning. On my walks I’ve seen so many squirrels carrying nuts and seeds, winter must be coming. The birds are flying south, too, big flocks of ducks, geese, and swans. My hummingbird feeder level is also going down fast. Now if I could only get the rats in the woodpile to leave!
Ha! We can hear the honkers passing overhead on their way south.
I’ve heard geese honking as they head somewhere else for the past couple of weeks now.
Hermes Eau de Merveilles today. Working at my home office next to the open patio door. Getting lots of road noise (we overlook the highway) but if I don’t look at it directly I can pretend it is lovely waves lapping at a beach.
You smell incredible, and I love your repurposing of the road noise!
I do the exact same thing! The funny thing is that I know someone originally from NYC who now lives by the beach, and she always thought the sound was traffic.
Making it sound soothing and familiar instead of an irritant!
Yep!
I’m wearing Clean ~Reserve~ Skin [Reserve Blend]. I’m not a fan of so many modifiers and subheadings, but I want to distinguish it from the regular Clean Skin, which appears to be floral and musk. I don’t think I would like that as much, as I’m enjoying the salty sweetness of the ~reserve blend~. When I think of skin + salt I usually think of sweat and I’m not getting any sweat. Would make a nice body lotion.
No tea today, just a delicious pumpkin smoothie which I think works for the weather today- warm and humid, but cloudy and grey very fall. I never know how to dress in order to be both cozy and cool.
Pumpkin smoothie sounds delicious!
I’m wearing No. 5 L’Eau today. Had a ridiculously frustrating day but was able to come home to a beautiful house and loving dog, cat and husband and realized how fortunate I am. How is it that dog kisses fix everything??
So sweet!
I am glad they straightened out your day for you. Perspective!
Puppy kisses make everything better.
Our furry friends are wonderful!
Really squishy today. It’s been raining most of the day for me. I managed to grab the mail and take out some recyclables during a break in the weather. Predictions of 1 to 2 inches of rain before it all quits sometime tomorrow morning. ☔?
Better on the phone front for me today! Last night while talking with my brother, I noticed that I had bars for a signal for the first time in a few days. So maybe whatever was acting up got fixed?
SOTD = back in AG Ninfeo Mio. It works so well in warm and humid weather, which I have in spades today.
Initially I thought you meant you were feeling emotionally fragile.
The same weather system just erupted here.
Yay for your phone working better! I hope it will stick.
Emotionally fragile was yesterday, ugh. Feeling much better today.
That’s alot of rain in a short time.
Yep. Got Flood Warnings in my county now. Fortunately I am on high ground, and have no reason to go out driving tonight.
Good!
Got the same rain here. I also had to turn on the light that’s above my work area this morning or I would be on dark Zoom.
“Dark Zoom” sounds like an alternative radio station, lol!
Ha! It does!
Our weather is Sublime! Finally! Woo-Hoo!
I’m wearing Amouage Honour Women because it came up in the long weekend thread a few times..
I thunked a sample of Erik Kormann September today. I’m trying to clean out some of my old samples — finding many that have dried up from being neglected too long (sigh).
Beautiful day here, and supposed to be nice the rest of the week! Allegedly the smoke’s coming up from the south again, though…so I’m going to get outside as much as I can right now.
What part of BC are you in? We even had a bit of smoke drift all the way to Montreal, believe it or not.
I’m in Vancouver. Yeah, my grandma in Ohio said they got some of the smoke, too.
Love the teapot!
SOTD = Chanel No.19 EDP
???
It’s supposed to be Taco Tuesday but I’m too lazy to make the coleslaw so it will be fish and whatever carbs I decide on.
Ah, and popcorn ? for the show tonight!
I wonder if frozen coleslaw is a Thing? And if so, it is a Good Thing? ?
I wouldn’t knowingly eat thawed frozen coleslaw but maybe I’ve had it at some diner in the distant past ?
For some reason, I thought you didn’t like seafood.
I love seafood! Fish – fillet only and I am perfectly fine with sashimi. I won’t eat raw oysters. Shrimp – has to be fully cooked.
