Dyson DC14 Vacuum

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 …

Method Scented Candle
I adore Method scented candles, and I always pick them up when I am at an outlet at which they are sold. Long burning, attractive, and in scents that complement rather than overwhelm the interior atmosphere of my small apartment, Method scented candles are a far cry from the …
