lol, i agree the new optimism is cheerful, reminds me of what maybe the packaging would look like if this was bbws first line.

im hoping for some new stuff this year.

I received my Gold Canyon candle order today.

Pomegranate is my favorite of the order. It almost smells like a really sweet strawberry.

Key Lime Pie smells exactly like its name. Its a little tart smelling w/ a slight hint of a crust note.

I ran to Target today after work!

I picked up 3 Softsoap body washes, they are called: "Softsoap Skin Essentials Body Butter Coconut Scrub Moisturizing Body Wash." It smells really good and has bits of crushed coconut to exfoliate, and jojoba butter to moisturize at the same time.

They were on sale for $3 each (18 oz bottles), plus I had 3 coupons for $1 off, so I got 3 bottles for a total of $6!

Gizmo, your order sounds good! I Key Lime Pie!! It's one of my favorite candle scents. Enjoy!

Meg, you got a great deal!! I most things with coconut in it, so your body washes sound especially good to me. Hope you enjoy them.

I got the sweetest package from Gizmo over the weekend.
She sent me:
Too Faced Smurfette lip gloss This is my ultimate fave lip gloss!!!
BE Buxom lip gloss in a gorgeous colour.
Beauty Rush 3-in-1 in Slice of Heaven I am so getting more of this!!
I also got a mini Rainkissed Leaves shower gel, Black Amethyst EdT sample and BE sample, and a cute card with a snowflake and Hello Kitty stickers.
Thanks so much, Gizmo!!

My husband got me a Bonsai tree for Valentine's Day and an Ipod Touch!!
I can't wait to charge it.
I had the greatest weekend, too.

I hope everyone else had a great weekend.

Aww Fryl, you are more than welcome!
I hope you like everything.

What great gifts from your hubby.
I am glad you had a great weekend.

My hubby and I said we werent going to buy gifts this year, but he cheated. He bought me VS Sexy Little Things Noir EdT.
We also went to a wedding yesterday, so that was our Valentines Day dinner.

That was very sweet of Gizmo. What a nice gift to come home too. My son wants that Ipod Touch. It looks like a lot of fun to play with. Have fun and take it out the box!! Don't be like me and my GPS.

Gizmo, that was sweet of your man to treat you to a little something sexy for V Day. You definitely have to wear it often for him. My hubby's the same way. I tell him not to buy me anything, I get white gold hoop earrings, he gets a big bag of kiddie mix candies. But he loved it!

Thats funny Lovey, my hubby got chocolate covered caramels from me.
That was very sweet of your hubby too. You can never go wrong with jewelry.

Oh Gizmo, you're so classy! My hubby doesn't eat chocolate. He got me some turtles (candy) and my kids have been tearing into it.

You're right, jewelry is the way to go!

Nice gifts, ladies!!
Sounds like you have some smart husbands.
Perfume and jewellery are my favourite things to receive.

I love my new Ipod Touch. It's indeed a lot of fun to play with. It's like an Iphone minus a couple of features.

I have you all beat. I got my husband a Burt's Bees chapstick.
But I did pay for breakfast, lunch and dinner that day.

P.S. The post office was closed today.

My husband would have actually loved getting the Burt's Bees chapstick. He always has a tube of that on him.

Hmm ladies what does this say about us? We all got nice things, and our poor husbands... not so much.

Fryl, I am happy to hear you are loving your new Ipod Touch. I have heard great things about it so far.

Good question, Gizmo! There are actually some years when I get him something special. But I believe it is so easy for them. Flowers, candy, jewelry, balloons...my husband doesn't really like any of that but jewelry and I bought him two watches in December so I was at a loss! He does like cologne but he's all stocked up right now so he didn't need that either. Unlike me, he doesn't want an unlimited supply (what's wrong with HIM?).

What I normally do for him is a full body massage and treat him to a night out (dinner, movie, etc) at his request. He's been sick so he hasn't redeemed his massage coupon yet.

I placed a MAC order for a Hello Kitty Beauty Powder. "hellokitty" for free shipping.

I also placed a Macy's order. Over the weekend I saw their Lancome GWP but I didn't have time to browse for products. The makeup bag is so cute, which is the only reason I placed the order. I did get products I was going to have to purchase sooner or later, though.
I got sunscreen (with Mexoryl) and a Bi-Facil makeup remover to qualify for free shipping (code "chic" for FS with a min. purchase of $55).


At Meijer I picked up an Organix Pomegranate Green Tea serum and Vitamin Shampoo (purple bottle).

valentines day!

I did a little bit of shopping on Monday:

Sephora
Melon Daiquiri 3 in 1

Beall Outlet
pair of jeans
bath rugs

TJ Maxx
Edna & Otis snack mix

Nothing overly exciting but it was nice to get out and wander about for a change.

Thanks, Ilove!

I went to Target and got a case for my Ipod Touch. It was on clearance for 50%, so I only paid $12.50 for it.
I also got a wood file cabinet, that I plan on using as a nightstand.

very nice cabinet Fryl, that is going to be a great nightstand


i got my clinique scrub from sephora
today.i got the cream instead of the other one.
i also got the moisturizer too, smells good.

Thanks, Ilove. It's already been assembled, and it does look great.
The drawer is now holding all my cosmetic bags (and I do have quite a few).

Speaking of cosmetic bags, I received my Macy's order today.
It came with 2 nice lipsticks and an eye shadow quad, a cleanser and a facial moisturizer and a mini Bi-Facil. I'll probably fraffle the makeup off.

Nice order, Ilove. I need to visit the Clinique counter one of these days. I'd like to try their brush cleanser.

Today I received the most generous, best package from Fryl.

I got 3 full size MAC pigments, along with 3 MAC pigment samples. They were in the cutest polka dot Sephora bag. I love all the colors, I cant wait to play with them all. They are all colors I havent tried before.

I also received a BBW CBH, and BBW CCC 3-in-1s. I absolutely love both of those scents, especially the Crazy Caramel Corn.

I received samples in Philosophy Candy Cane 3-in-1, Lacoste dream of pink EdT, and Urban Decay eyeshadow, and Primer Potion.

Best of all Fryl, sent me a Stila quad w/ 3 eyeshadows and a blush. It also came with a tarepanda notepad, and notebook. It is super cute!!!

I am floored by your generosity Fryl, and I truly appreciate it all, and I thank you.

Aww, you're so very welcome, Gizmo!!
I'm so happy you like everything, and I hope you'll enjoy them as much as I enjoy the fabulous items you sent me.
