    Gilmore girls is always on as background in my house! I also watch it at night when I’m going to bed. There’s something so comforting about it. Emily is my absolute favorite! Sending healing vibes for a swift recovery ❤️‍🩹

      I don’t know what it is about that show but I’ve always been obsessed. It really is comforting, and so clever.
      Have you seen Bunheads or The Marvellous Mrs Maisel? Same creator.

    Been thinking of you often & especially Today. Prayers for a quick & painless recovery sweetie pie. Gooseberries? Hum..... bummed I missed that one. I did okay with the sale. Was only searching for 75 off 3 wicks. Hit 4 stores first day. First in line at two. Found main Street & berry waffle only😢. 10.95 found, farmhouse pump spice, Carmelized lavender,fall apple cider & cinnamon rolls. Wanted more!!! Any Hoot, Feel better & Fantastic content once again! I wish you could see my smile 😁when you post a new video! Thank You Greg...

      Thanks Joanne!! The root canal went great and I’m at home waiting to be able to feel the right side of my mouth again lol. 😂 🦷
      I never have much luck finding 75% 3-wick candles in store.. but I’m not a very good shopper. I usually only hit up 2 or 3 stores during SAS, usually in the late afternoon lol. I still almost always manage to find a few things I’m thrilled about though. 😀
      I’m so happy you enjoy my silly little channel. 💜😀🕯️

    I hope that your mouth feels better after the procedure.
    I celebrated Christmas at home with daughter and son-in-law on the 25th, and with siblings, their offspring, and extended family on the 28th. Been busy preparing food and organizing here and there. A wonderful time was had by all.
    Tonight I will probably catch up on some TH-cam and snack on leftover goodies😋.
    Haven’t been burning or warming candles everyday(every 2-3 days) because it’s been cold and I need to either air out or take breaks. We’re coming into a week-long warmer spell so I expect to enjoy some scents again on the daily. I did have Fresh Balsam going yesterday and this morning, but downstairs only. The scent wafts up the stairs so I can enjoy it upstairs too, albeit toned down.
    It’ll be interesting which candles I’ll reach for with temperatures reaching up to 10 degrees.✌️

    I went full on Christmas scents for about 3 weeks. I didn't finish any of them. I finished a lemonade and sweet tea and a peach Bellini. They were very low and just taking up real-estate. They were flawless burns. I hope you are resting peacefully. Sending love and prayers. ❌️⭕️

    I'm really annoyed with yankee for the marathon burns their candles require sometimes I wanna enjoy something in the morning while getting ready and don't have 4 hours to wait 😂😂till I got my sis a couple Yankees for Xmas and I told her to burn the BBW's I got her after work and save Yankee for weekends!! She gets home at 5:30 and has to have everything done and kids in bed by 8 so a Yankee will not be enjoyed!! I gave up my spare cuddle weather and forever red to her!! My oldest sister got 8 unburned goose creek and then a bunch of fall/Xmas BBW that were half burned or burned once ranging from fall 2019 to fall 2024 instead of messing with trying to sell them or returning them I just gave her like 20 candles lol!!

    I’m burning peppermint sugar cookie (same jar) right now and maybe I got a dud, I can’t smell a thing. And the flame is dying out and there is still a third left to burn. I loved the peppermint hot chocolate candle, that one did have a strong throw. Hope you’re not in too much pain and discomfort. Thanks for your review. Take care 🥰

      Too bad about your Peppermint Cookie.. mine did pretty well. 🤷 One thing I’ve really noticed doing this channel is that experiences can vary.. even when you think you’ve got the same candle as someone else. I generally find experiences are similar.. but often you hear from someone that just had the opposite. Who knows lol.

    The peppermint sugar cookie candles I've tried had no strength or throw 😩. So much so that I returned a single wick and a 3 wick. I tried twice and with a warmer, too! Ugh, I'm convinced I just got random duds. I wanted to love it so much because I loved the scent. I agree about Merry Cookie, I refuse to buy it now, though I want to love it.

    Hey Greg, hope the root canal went well for you. Crushed candy cane was so good, really enjoyed it.
    Greg you’re starting to sound like a broken record, the first half was amazing not so much on the second half on all these BBW candles. 😂
    Hope you have a quick recovery my friend. 😊

    I ended up doing a "kinda" SAS haul this afternoon I had a $5.00 gift card and a $10.00 off 30 and I have been wanting the 2 packs of the warm vanilla sugar wallflowers so I got 2 of those 3 warm vanilla sugar hand soaps 1 forever red wallflower and a new wallflower plug I had to give mine away in my sister's Xmas gift because last minute I asked if she had a wallflower plug and she said she wasn't sure anymore lol silly me I assume every woman and scent loving dude in my life has one of those! 😂 I also got a forever red wallflower I have 8 of the candles so I will save that for when I burn those up...my usual SAS haul is a boat load of candles and body wash but nothing called my name this year I got all the candles I wanted at candle day AAAANNNNNDD they dropped those candles in America that had the vanilla coconut in them and they didn't go on sale 😅 usually when they do that the day before SAS they are part of the sale guess not!! This haul is so unusual for me but I needed the wallflower packs those dang flash sales! I have been craving warm vanilla sugar I hope I still like it. I wanted to pick up golden berry mistletoe but you know I have just been so disappointed I just feel like all the tree scents smell like fresh balsam or a mix of fresh balsam and tree farm!! I was kinda surprised at the options but ya know I didn't go to the store I was out of town for Xmas my sister lives in the boonies no BBW for like 40 minutes and then it's in a big city didn't wanna fight that crowd I am a small town girl that is for sure LOL I will probably go mosey around at my store at the end of the week when I get paid but I just know it's going to be so picked through LOL!!

    I’m bought a Homeworx candle -Winter Fireside from the website. The scent is amazing. But this was THE worst candle I’ve ever burned. The wax never ever pooled and only tunneled down. The wicks were so puny that they extinguished themselves and can never be relit. After much back n forth with the company, they are sending me a replacement. So when I saw your candle that went on strike, I thought I’d share my experience.

    • @AllAbootCandles
      @AllAbootCandles  6 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I’ve had some serious issues with Homeworx wicks before. I don’t buy from them very often anymore, but have about 10 stashed away. No more striking candles! Lol
