1. Ahhh, Mondays. I have order packing to do, then I gotta bike down to the PO. Might go to the godawful slow one near the university just so I can stop in Papers and pick up stuff for my Austen letter swap.

2. Mini review: Third Street Chai in Honey Vanilla-- tasty but quite sweet. Might try their regular flavor or even sugar free. In other news, I've been drinking soymilk for the last two weeks. It's fine if I mix something in it.

3. Mini review: Vosges' Mo's Bacon Bar-- heaven.

4. Customer service props: I bought some votives and a palm wax pillar candle from Woodcrafts & Candles awhile ago. The TAT and scent strength of the candles is superb. I did have a problem burning the pillar-- it may have gotten damaged in transit, and when I burned it, wax went everywhere. The proprietress offered to replace it free of charge. Thumbs up.

5. Also a thumbs up for AJ's Country Cottage. Fast shipping, good scent strength, and a slow/even burning soy wax blend. Their plumeria scent is really great, as is their coconut peach one.

6. The Vampire Diaries was reportedly picked up for the Fall on the CW. My childhood, it weeps.
