candles!

every now and then i see people popping up, talking about candles they love (local or not). my favorite local (Thibodaux) candle maker is Amy's Country Candles, particularly their bird of paradise and vanilla sugar cookie candle scents (8oz jellies shown). i've tried their b.o.p. oil and wasn't a fan, but their candles are awesome! the whole house smells like the candle, not just the room. yum! you'll know what i'm talking about when you pass their shop in esplanade mall or the cart in lakeside! a word from the wise: these wicks smoke, so make sure you keep an eye on the length and trim as needed. ~L-c ^.~
