Scentsy Winner!
So back in early December, I wrote this post about hosting a Scentsy party and said if anyone saw my post and bought from the party, I’d put them in a drawing to win free Scentsy stuff (coming from me, not the consultant or Scentsy)…
Well, the basket party has finally closed and according to Random.org, the winner is….. Allison from Glimpses of the Military Life! Allison has started her own business and has respectfully declined the winnings so the next Random.org winner is ArmyGirlNay from The Albrecht Squad!
Allison, ArmyGirlNay since my party did so well, I’m giving you the choice of one of the following (all worth $25):
- A mid-size warmer of your choice
- A plug-in warmer of your choice and one bar of your choice
- One brick of your choice plus one bar of your choice
- Five bars of your choice
Thank you to those who signed up!
Please get back to me within 48 hours or I will have to choose another winner (I’ll also be tweeting you and contacting you on your blog).
It’s a Scent-sational Party!
Nothing is more memorable than a smell. One scent can be unexpected, momentary and fleeting, yet conjure up a childhood summer beside a lake in the mountains; another, a moonlit beach; a third, a family dinner of pot roast and sweet potatoes during a myrtle-mad August in a Midwestern town.

Have you heard of Scentsy? I’m sure most of you have. If you haven’t, you are truly missing out.
Scentsy is a flameless candle that comes in a bajillion scents (I’ve counted… there are exactly a bajillion). The reason I got hooked on Scentsy is because there is no flame and if one of our bumbling animals tips it over, it’s won’t burn them (won’t burn kids, either, but we don’t have any).
Also? I’m have a bit of ADD when it comes to scents. I like to burn different ones on different days, depending on my mood. And it’s hard to do that with candles because they are so bulky.
Anyway, to make a long post much shorter, I’m having a basket party over at Mommy Taco’s place through December 31st! You can purchase it all the way up through the 19th and still get it in time for Christmas! It’s a perfect gift for anyone still on your list. Even the guys. Huzzy takes a travel tin with him underway. He loves it.
Bonus? I’m going to do a giveaway for anyone who reads my blog and purchases from the party. I’m not sure what yet (I’m still unemployed), but at the VERY least, I’ll buy you a trio scents of your choice. However, if my party is as big of a success as the last one, I’ll do a MUCH BIGGER giveaway. So if you purchase from the party, leave a comment here and I’ll put you in for the drawing =)
Double bonus? You can figure out my first name since Mommy Taco used my real name =P
**Note: The giveaway is from me, not MommyTaco or Scentsy. I will purchase the items and give them away myself.
Something Smells…. Good!
Today, give a stranger one of your smiles. It might be the only sunshine he sees all day.

In honor of Military Spouse Appreciation Day, Mommy Taco (from Bullocks and Butterflies) is giving away some Scentsy packages on three different blogs. But it ends tonight at 11:59 p.m. EST!
Scentsy is something I’d really like to try. It’s apparently an awesome smelling candle (and you can customize the scents!) and the wax won’t even burn you if it spills! Great for around pets and kids.
