The dog days of summer are over, but you wouldn't know it from the weather here. We're soldiering on with our standard open thread poll. Talk about anything you like — the fragrance you’re wearing today, the best fragrance for forgetting all your troubles, whatever.
Or, ask a question about fragrance, then see if anyone else has asked a question that you can answer…

Morning all! It’s only 8:30 and humidity is 83%. 😯 It’s going to be an up-do kind of day as my curly mane won’t cooperate.
My SOTD is remnants of yesterday’s bedtime perfume, Sweet Patchouli by Eva Luxe. I’ll layer Annick Goutal’s Musc Nomade over it, discreet and powdery.
I have a new pair of sneakers (Hoka One One) so headed to the gym to break them in! Mr. SmokeyToes and I will head out for a walk before the heat gets too bad.
I’ve had stick-straight hair all my life (perfect in the 60s) but was always envious of girls with curls. Took until my forties before I realized what a blessing straight hair could be.
I so wanted to be Peggy Lipton or at least look like her. But I have curly brown hair. So, nope.
Peggy Lipton was so gorgeous – probably still is. In my younger days I looked more like Joni Mitchell on the cover of the Clouds album. 🙂
Petty Lipton was gorgeous! I seriously envied her hair.
(In case anyone didn’t know, Lipton died in 2019, of cancer.)
I am counting down the days until my curly hair is long enough to put up in a ponytail again!
I’m in the ‘between’ stages of too short and ‘just perfect’ for a ponytail.
I went overboard at my last cut – my hair hadn’t been cut in 18 months, the stylist chopped off over 12 inches of hair.
Visited a mall in what seems like forever. Discovered a tiny perfume shop and purchased a long-lost love, Simply, by Clinique. It’s a little strange, fresh, with melon (from calone) but warm, with a note of soy milk and musk. It’s not ground-breaking, but it’s comforting, cozy, and clean.
Sometimes comforting, cozy and clean is just the ticket. Enjoy your new bottle! ?
Thanks! And I’m enjoying a few spritzes before I head to the gym. I forgot how enjoyable this scent was/is.
I went online and read some reviews, this morning I definitely got a licorice note (love!!) that I’d never smelled previously.
Woke up to a blissful 63 degrees and promptly threw open a few windows to capture the coolth. Am now enjoying my coffee in a spritz of Paracelsus and pretending it’s autumn, before things heat up to the predicted high of 90. ?
What a lovely morning!
It was!
Hoping for that tomorrow morning, we’ll see!
Keeping fingers crossed for you … and me too. ?
It worked! Had all the windows opened first thing.
Oh yay, that’s wonderful! Here too! ?
Another hot day underway, and another round of from-the-fridge spritzing. Looking forward to the promised rain on Monday!
I am waiting for a break in the weather too!
SOTD is a hotch pitch of samples
Delina exklusiv – meh, don’t understand the hype. Smells like fruity sweeties and pigtails.
Carven Dans Ma Bulle – more meh.
Twilly – I’ve fallen for that one. It’s just right for a certain kind of carefree mood on a sunny day.
Happy weekend everyone!
“Fruity sweeties and pigtails” made me laugh! (And made me decide to never smell it)
I expected to love Delina and also got a big meh! Glad to know I’m not the only one…
SOTD is L’Heure Bleue + Cuir Beluga. I read somewhere that it makes a good impression of Iris Ganache and indeed the overall smell reminds me of my sample!
I have been a bit worried about the discontinuation of my beloved L’Art et la Matiere, it seems they will bring most back in new bottles. I don’t like change…? enjoying my Guerlains this week.
Happy weekend! ☀️?
The Saks confirmed this. They are not getting more stock but there are still quite a few that can be decanted into the bee bottles. I have all the back-ups I need (mmmm….k, want) although that green bee bottle is calling my name ?.
Hajusuuri, I have also got back ups of my favourites from the line this week. I really hope Guerlain won’t be making any changes to their way of making perfume. It is one of the few houses that really works for me.
So many are concerned about the dreaded refo if that may happen!
Yeah, I love those colored bee bottles, but with all my backups in the regular bottles I couldn’t justify a purchase. I haven’t heard if any scents will be discontinued, and I’m glad to see two new ones along with the return of Bois d’Arménie. If you did get the green bee bottle, which scent would you have it filled with? 😉
I don’t have Rose Barbare so if that’s available….also wanted Patchouli Argent but that is not available.
Rose Barbare in that green bottle would be lovely. I vote yes. 🙂
I adore Rose Barbare! It is such a beauty. But I can’t justify spending that kind of cash.
I admit get more than a little disappointed (read… cranky) seeing companies d/c scents or revamp and re-release and charge more $$ for the same juice.
Monsieur Guerlain made it seem they are renaming and repackaging this line.
https://www.instagram.com/tv/CSco67Lo7fk/?utm_medium=copy_link
I can’t see how this possibly made sense to anyone at Guerlain.
It seems to have worked for Serge Lutens. Except for the name changes, this is a direct steal from the Lutens playbook. It just seems to be the way things are done now: change the bottles and make ’em bigger, jack up the prices, cheapen the formulae, and damn the devoted customer base.
Am I bitter? Yeah, I’m bitter.
Absolutely. Serge Lutens in the concept, Tom Ford in the shape of the bottles if you have seen them… some clever marketing people at Guerlain. I really hope they don’t mess up with the formulas. I thought very little of the last two allegorias.
I was primarily thinking of the name changes.
I’m all for changing bottle styles, as it makes it easier to pinpoint the era when shopping for used/vintage.
In the case of Guerlain, however, a lot of their bottles have a history, so it’s a bit sad (though I’m not referring to the art & materials here, obviously.) I personally never want to spray Shalimar from a bee bottle. Or accidentally spray something else because it looks identical to the one sitting next to it.
But I also don’t understand it from a marketing perspective. I can’t imagine going to a Guerlain counter and being faced with dozens and dozens of identical bottles. I’d just walk away if I were a less informed consumer – which most are.
I agree, a lot of the fun is the individuality of the bottles. I mean, Shalimar is famous, I adore Mahora also a favorite, as is Samsara.
Yes… they are losing something that made them distinctive, the different and exciting bottle designs going back in history. Now they’re no different than Tom Ford, Chanel, Dior or Lancome. Luxury bottles all identifiable by large volumes and uniformity.
I also loved the packaging of the elixirs and art et la matiere collections so sad to see them go..
Yes, this news of re-packaging and price increase for the L’Art et Matiere line is most upsetting! I have full bottles of all my absolute must-haves, so I’m not hunting for any back ups. The only one I might want more of is Cuir Beluga, but I have a good size decant and don’t need a full bottle. Overall, it’s very off-putting and distasteful, all this money grubbing!
I’ve never tried Iris Ganache and have always been curious, so thanks for your layering suggestion! I will try it as soon as the weather cools a bit. 😀
Yay! See what you think of it. I have really liked this combo-it has been the scent of the weekend! ?
I am mostly surprised at the new bottle design. At least there are 2 new ones, but I did not really investigate to see if all the old ones are going to be repackaged.
They have repackaged many in the Mitsouko and L’Heure Bleue bottles I think… insolence, samsara etc don’t come in the bee bottles anymore. And they have a very Tom Ford-like design for the more luxury lines.
11 hours sweet sleep
My sister feeling much better. Better each day.
Discovery kit of le labo city exclusives arrives today. See if there is a love match in there.
Mani pedi later
Post shower a few sprays of incense flash
Nice with the sleep and hooray about your sister feeling better everyday! I thought that the City Exclusives were already available and indeed they are at the boutiques but not at Saks ☹️. That said, Cedrat 37 smells pretty good from an unofficial spray on card sample.
oh I must see if I have enough courage to go to store in LA.
All good things. So glad to hear your sister is feeling better. I was touched by your words for her the other day, that she is your other half.☺️ It reminded me of the relationship I observe between my two girls- 21 and almost 16- they are like peas and carrots those two. Always have been and I hope they always will be, long after my h and I are gone.
Please report back on the Le Labos!
yes we are, mtg. only a little over a year apart.
My mother had one wish that her girls be close and we are that.
My sister has two granddaughters and has the same wish for them.
very excited about the le labos!
I’m so glad your sister keeps getting better. Have fun with the sample set!
thank you sistine!
Great news about your sister! Enjoy your weekend sniffing!
So glad to hear about your sister!
Thank you all so much. We are like peas and carrots, Forrest & Jenny, Thelma &Louise.
Expect for her love of running, biking and hiking and my love of fragrance, Nordstom and laying on sofa.
We accomodate beautifully.
🙂
Okay, so you are definitely my psychic sister. Nordies, perfume and sofas forever. ?
So glad your sister is improving and I do envy your sleep hours!!
Another exhausting super hot and humid day.
Wearing L’Artisan Un Air de Bretagne.
Happy weekend! ?
I say chillax ?. I am meeting up with family later. Food ordered and I just need to pickup.
I will! ?. Just came back from a short walk and not expecting to go out again.
Enjoy your family gathering!
You smell fantastic. Un Air de Bretagne is full bottle worthy for me.
Thank you, Lucas! Un Air de Bretagne is full bottle and bub worthy. Such a great scent!
I’m in Child perfume oil for a sample thunk. I can see the appeal of this one, but if I had to choose, I would pick Kai over this one. But that’s just my opinion.
It’s another picture perfect weather day. My h and I were up early and went to our neighborhood farmer’s market. Then we enjoyed a cup of coffee/chai at an outdoor patio. Not much else on my agenda today except enjoying the weather and some family time.?
It is my opinion too 🙂
Mine too:) I’m curious what others think of Child. I found myself doctoring it with SL Fleur d’Oranger and Kyse Peche au Yuzu (forgive me) to soften/round out the jasmine because the jasmine and/or the tuberose was over the top in not a good way to my nose.
Child was a little overwhelming to me too. Go you! Layer on at will!
🙂
I never liked Child, Kai is much better.
I think I like Kai a tad bit better, I get a more clear gardenia note from it. If you like gardenia, I was going to recommend Terra Nova’s Gardenia but the company (Nectarine) officially closed shop in March 2021. I was able to track down a few of the perfume oils, China Musk, Gardenia, and Taire Lei. They had fantastic body products, the shower gels and lotions were enjoyable.
My parents are away for a weekend trip so I’m spending this weekend in peace qnd with not much to do. It’s gotten a bit hotter but it’s bearable.
I’m wearing Atelier Cologne Pomelo Paradis & enjoying its juiciness today.
What’s the recently discovered citrus/summery perfume you tried and recommend?
https://www.instagram.com/p/CSjlZA5De0g/?utm_medium=copy_link
If you can, try the new Le Labo City Exclusive for Berlin – Cedrat 37. I liked it!
Thanks for the idea but I don’t think I can easily sample this one.
I’m wearing Passage d’Enfer. Has anyone tried the extreme version?
We went to the garden center this morning (yay!) and now I’m watching my required HR training videos. (Sigh.). I know it’s very important information, but it’s the same every year, and I hate watching videos of people reading power points.
The reading of powerpoints really bother me because I really could just read it myself.
Totally agree!
I really, really want to try the extreme. You smell great!
I’ve been so curious about the extreme too. I’ve checked a couple times on the L’Artisan site and they don’t have that sample available. Most frustrating! I also dislike that they only allow you to “purchase” 2 samples at a time. Purchase in quotes because they are technically free but you have to pay $11 for shipping.
Not a bad price if they are atomizer samples with at least 1.5mLs in each.
I have a bottle – it’s a stronger version of the edt, with a more pronounced vanilla note. It loses some of the transparency of the original, but this is L’Artisan and Giacobetti so you couldn’t call it heavy or dense!
Ooh, thanks for the info!!!
I have been in Chinatown the last 2-3 days… Yesterday I went to the grocery store like 7 hours after applying Chinatown and I was wafting so good… Went home and reapplied. I can’t seem to stay away from Chinatown. If I could I would bathe in it.
You smell amazing!
you smell great! my gateway drug. have back up at all times.
It’s a wonderful scent! I think my bottle has gotten stopped up–the sprayer won’t work. Wish I could fix that. In fact I love the bottle design too.
SOTD = Sultan Pasha Irisoir
One of the best iris / orris butter out there!
https://www.instagram.com/p/CSkFM1GrMZn/?utm_medium=copy_link
I left work slightly early yesterday to go sniffing at Saks, with my main goal being Le Labo. To my consternation, the City Exclusives were not yet available, but I did get to smell the new one for Berlin – Cedrat 37 and sadly for my wallet, it smells pretty darn good! It is slightly salty, limey and gingery. I stopped by Aesop and smelled the latest trio – meh – smelled thin to me and they all have a base that smells damp earthy and not in a good way. I also stopped by Guerlain; nothing interesting other than there’s a green bee bottle that’s calling my name. Let’s see how I do next week when the store has its gift card event.
In other news, I am meeting up with family for takeout dinner later. When I placed my order, the order-taker said we don’t have x anymore because they were sold out yesterday. Ummm, don’t they talk about making things fresh? It was okay since I really wanted something that was all vegetables anyway and they are able to accommodate. I also ordered dessert and was told they have run out of the container! Seriously, who is minding the shop inventory? We did agree that it was fine to use an alternate container, for which I have to pay an extra $0.50 each. Since it was a small mom & pop, I did not challenge it. Looking forward to the meal as they do a great job!
And for the Caturday fans, enjoy:

Irisoir sound dreamy ? I need a sample!
You do! I believe it is only available via his website and quite possibly evilbay.
Enjoy your family dinner!
Thanks! I did!
Hope dinner with the family was great..I am headed to my sister’s house today for some porch sitting and leftover birthday cake!!
It was wonderful! Good chats as always and settled on a date for our next get-together (outside of the extended family gathering at the end of August).
I’ve been seeing weird packaging shortages in our area. We were collecting boxes at liquor stores for the last push to empty my dad’s house recently, and two of the stores had limits on how many boxes we could take. They had run out of paper bags and had to keep the boxes for customers. The cajun place down the road was short on take out boxes, too.
But still, they shouldn’t have charged you extra for a to go box! That’s just wrong.
Thank you for noticing the same! There’s good news – whatever was out inside was delicious ?.
Shalimar body lotion followed by the Eau de Cologne.
Gorgeous day here, but my husband is feeling pretty crummy. Probably side effects to a new medication. Sigh. I feel good, despite staying up a bit late. I finished watching La Mante on Netflix. Caught the end of Klute on TCM, which was followed by Barbarella. I’d never seen the latter so stayed up for some of it but decided it wasn’t worth staying up till the end. I hit “record” so I can see the end if I feel inclined.
Laundry and may try to do the zucchini bread. I need some ingredients.
I should have recorded Klute–one of my favorite vintage movies (although I saw it when it first came out!!). I enjoyed my extra zucchini chopped up with an onion, butter, a ton of basil and olive oil over pasta!!! …and a squeeze of lemon, yes!!
I never think about Barbarella without thinking about my folks. They were seeing it in the theater and Mom was pregnant with my youngest sister. She started having contractions during the movie and had to nudge my dad a couple of times to get him to leave and take her to the hospital! ?
I’m sad today. Nanci Griffith passed away yesterday. I’ve been listening to her music since the early 80’s. Her Storms album helped me process my divorce and still is probably my favorite of all her work. Here’s a live version of a tune from that album.
https://youtu.be/fp0DtAGP4rU
I saw in the Times that she died. “Other Voices, Other Rooms” has been played in my house since it came out. What a giant talent, she never got the recognition she deserved.
I agree, she was very underrated as a singer and a songwriter.
I’m very sad about her passing – what a great loss. I was in a local band for awhile and loved singing her songs, especially Across the Great Divide and From a Distance. And Once in a Very Blue Moon is so beautiful and haunting – “I found your letter in my mailbox today…”
I didn’t know this!! Very cool (about you being in a band). But sad about Nanci.
Oh, her songs must have been fun to sing! I sing along, but only in the privacy of my own home (or shower). Her voice was so clear and refined. She always sounded like herself, and no one else.
I found out last night. My father reminded me that I took him to one of her concerts when I was in law school, and Adam Duritz joined her on stage. Her albums were definitely a big part of the sound track of my 20s and falling in love with my now husband. “Love at the Five and Dime” was on our wedding playlist.
So much love in your comment, Oakland Fresca! “Love at the Five and Dime” is a great song for a wedding playlist. And taking your dad to a concert, well, that’s a wonderful memory too. Thank you for sharing your memories!
My tomatoes have finally ripened and I ate a giant one for dinner last night. It’s hot and smoky here so I am postponing a shopping trip for new sandals to another day. I have kitties on me or next to me so I may just read all day. Wearing Cedre Sambac.
Nothing better than a ripe tomatoe from your own garden… and kitties on your lap!
That sounds like a lovely day!
Sotd is Tauer Rose oil layered with the end of my Rose and Cuir sample. I might head for the bottle of Rose Rouge shortly since rose has been calling me lately.
Tempted to visit my local Le Labo store today to check out the City Exclusives…
Hey, if you don’t go today, let’s plan a trip!
That sound great! I’d much rather go together.
I just emailed.
I’d love to meet you both there! The shop in Capitol Hill right? That’s just a 15 minute walk for me.
Emailed you. And if anyone else in the Seattle area would like to join, we are meeting at 11am tomorrow (Sunday) at LL, 921 E Pine St. and we’d love to see you!
That body oil is so so good
Heavenly:)
I did not sleep well last night, but I’m so happy it’s the weekend I don’t really care!
We’re off to a bbq at our friends’ place later today. I plan on wearing Copal Azur on this warmish, humid-ish day.
After Hitchcock week, I started googling all the movies I haven’t watched and finding streaming options. I’m looking forward to watching a few soon!
I’m lazy. If you find any on Amazon Prime, please do tell! I don’t have any paid subscriptions other than if you consider cable as a subscription.
On Amazon Prime you can find: Vertigo, Rear Window, To Catch a Thief, and Charade. I’m watching Vertigo tonight and watched Rear Window last weekend.
Thank you!
I’m planning to search for some of those Hitchcock movies, too. Sounds like perfect summer fare.
Let me know if you watch Frenzy. It’s not well-known and I think it’s fantastic. It’s both quite chilling and extremely funny. The police inspector is hilarious in an understated way.
Thanks for the recommendation!
SOTD is Infusion d’Iris. I’m scrubbing my slightly grimy house today and smelling polished and clean is inspiring me to make my house polished and clean as well!
Ha – maybe I need to try that!
Spending some time in Memoir today and finished that blog post that I’ve been working on for two days. Just waiting for a friend to swing by so we can do a late lunch/early dinner. I did mention no camera and let’s see if he listens. A medication says to stay out of full sun.
Hope you had a lovely, camera free meal Dawn!
Ariana Cloud, just one spritz today. It’s a little cooler and the smok is better so I’m having a great time baking today–rye burger buns, brownies and then Bittman’s zucchini gazpacho that kpaint posted a link to the other day. I’m excited to make several of these recipes with my garden’s bounty so here it is again in case you are interested and missed it:
https://www.markbittman.com/recipes-1/gazpacho-12-ways
A troubling ad (for me) for Hermes Cavalier jewelry in our WSJ today. Surprising to me as I think it objectifies the model as well as suggests something unappealing (androgynous looking female model with long chain necklace). I’m decidedly not the target audience, however. Did anyone else see this and have thoughts?
I only ask about the Hermes ad as I usually think highly of their perfumes, but this makes me rethink that the same way potentially glorifying addiction was unappealing to me (thinking Dior Addict’s original ads).
I do not get the WSJ but just peeked at some of the Cavalier ads…too many with androgynous models and chains to know which one you mean! I am not their target market either though.
I have been feeling homesick since getting back from visiting my family abroad ? – wore Fleur de Lalita for some happy vibes.
Like everyone else I’m bummed about the Guerlain relaunch of their art et matiere line. My favorite from this line is Neroli Outrenoir – so so good!
Fleur de Lalita is a lovely one!
It is! One of the few BWF I like
The signs of spring are increasing. It’s been a mild winter, but still winter, and I’ve had enough of that. The sun is shining this morning, and the first flowers are coming out on the neighbours’ magnolia tree.
We’ll be off for a long walk shortly, and I’ll spray a little of my new Encens Satin. Somone asked receently which Armani Privé I have – Rose Alexandrie, Rose d’Arabie, Myrrhe Impériale, Bois d’Encens, Ambre Eccentrico and now Encens Satin. They are over-priced, but it’s a range with quite a few that really seem to work for me. And I’ve bought most of them overseas, so there is some added excitement 🙂
Gaynor, I bought a bottle of Encens the other day. Armani site had the 50ml size only 7 of them. Enjoy them all.
I’m still here! My recovery from shoulder surgery has been very rough, partly because I had an allergic complication. Finally feeling a bit more like a human being. Haven’t even really been wearing perfume. Sleeping and sleeping. I am in Amber Narguile today. Smelling very good. Kittens are growing so much that I get them mixed up with their mama. They look like triplets.
Glad to see you, Calypso. May you continue to heal and feel better! Amber Narguile and kittens sound like a great combo.
Glad you are feeling
Better
Sorry recovery has been rough, hope things improve quickly!
Glad you’re feeling well enough to post!
It’s good to see you posting again! I hope the rest of your recovery goes more smoothly.
Our heat wave finally broke today, but it is still nice and summer-y outside. Took a stroll thru our small garden after I got home and reacquainted myself with the late summer flowers that are out and about right now.
SOTD is Cap Neroli. I was expecting another straight orange-ish blossom scent, and was pleasantly surprised when it turned out to be anything but. Very pretty and lasted all day.
Same here, lovely day! But feels like fall…
Bought a bike today! Used but in good condition. Been wanting one for years. I don’t think I’ve had a bike since college… and that’s a long time 😉
SOTD is Fleur d’Oranger, with some Hiris layered on top. Orange blossom iris heaven!
Congrats on the bike! And you smell delicious.
Enjoy the new bike!
Nice layering!
Yay! I’ve definitely biked more this year than I have in ages.
The air quality and heat both improved today, so I got out for a walk earlier. I also walked up and down one of our massive sets of stairs in the neighborhood, and boy are my legs feeling it. I only usually walk up these stairs and then continue on a walk from there, but coming back down works a whole different set of muscles and my legs felt like jelly for a while after. Countered my healthy activity with a fried fish sandwich from our local burger place since it is a special for this week only. Panko crusted halibut, tomatoes, pickled red onions, and charred corn aioli – it was so tasty! Now all showered and clean about to start up Vertigo. Wearing House of Matriarch Sex Magic from a bottle I bought at a special launch party for the line in 2013. It was the first perfume event I attended after moving to Seattle! Lately, I’ve been rooting around in my boxes of perfume to wear my bottles I’ve had for a while. Shopping my collection is definitely helped me not feel the urge to sample or buy much right now.
That sandwich sounds so good
Yes, I want that sandwich right now!!
Another hot smoky day. Wearing Rose Barbare.
Less smoke this morning, always a good thing. Temps should be dropping too, maybe a day for a bike ride after watching the Vuelta à España. Wearing Maria Candida Gentile Finisterre.
Amen to dropping temps! And less smoke.
Hope you got out for a bike ride.
Another hot and hideously smoky day here. The smoke in our area is staying up high — unfortunately for me, up where I live. Ugh. Stuck inside for another day.
But! The PERFUME CABINET is assembled and installed! Next, I’ve ordered some magnets for the doors and some risers for displaying the bottles. Populating the cabinet will happen this week!
Looking forward to a photo of this masterpiece. 🙂
Me too!
Me too!
Me four!
Me five! No pressure….
Was out and about yesterday in Ineke’s Idyllwild. Today is much cooler and less humid–thank you, Mother Nature.
SOTD–Tauer’s Reverie au Jardin. Plan to spend some time sitting outside on my sister’s new deck, enjoy her garden, and plow through some leftover birthday cake…a perfect day! I wish the same for all of you.
That does sound like a perfect day!
Good news is last night is that my friend left his camera at home like I asked and we had a good time at the park. Spending the day in Lyric today while lounging around the house.
Oh good!
In Lumiere Doree today. Went to the kids park with my daughter today and… The fence collapsed!! Fred the lil storm that just passed us wasn’t strong at all so I am wondering what caused it? Now preparing to face tropical storm Grace later this week.
Oh dear. Hope Grace isn’t any worse.
Thanks for Your concern. Today though it looks like we just got lucky as Grace’s path will not be crossing us anymore.
Oh good!
Arielle Saturday for me today, on Sunday. ?
Back home from the weekend of adventures. Went on the pontoon boat; it was a bit smoky but not nearly as hot as expected. Yesterday I walked the golf course (and also did my “caddie duties”). After golf we went to the beach for a few hours.
My work friend asked if I was interested in peaches from her tree; yes please! We picked about 20 pounds on the way home. Also got some lovely cherry tomatoes and finally got to meet her beautiful new puppy, a miniature Aussie Shepherd. So darned cute!
Off to shower and put on something fabulous after being mostly scentfree all weekend.
20 pounds! You have peaches up the wazoo! Glad your weekend went great!
I know! We will have to give some away to neighbours.
It was so nice to have a fun weekend for a change.
Peaches, puppies, pontoons and the beach = a wonderful weekend. Glad you had fun!
Thank you! It was great!
