Crock-Pot 4 Cup Double Dipper Slow Cooker

I bought Pampered Chef Cutting Edge Apple Wedger at a Pampered Chef party, to replace my old “no-name” apple cutter & corer that had fallen apart. The apple wedger was $11.50, which is a bit expensive, but I figured it was probably worth the money since it was made …

Renwick Scented Apple Cinnamon Jar Candle
Pleasant is the word that I would use to describe this scented candle from Renwick. The apple cinnamon scent isn’t overpowering, and that’s a good thing. The scent sort of stays in the background as it occupies a room. By that, I mean, when I first walk into the …
