Blustery
By all accounts, you'd swear it were early Spring in Maryland. The weather has been unseasonably warm and the sun is finally peeking out.
Today has been nonstop wind. It woke me up this morning and after several hours of determined blustering finally managed to knock out the cable (and so my primary internet line). I am connected still because I'm using my roomie's secondary line. It managed to blow just as Etsy was processing payment for a big load of brass chain.
I did get some really fun 18mm rondelles to play with-- maybe to make necklaces similar to my baubles earrings. And I bought a gorgeous piece of rutilated quartz with a bright red slash down the center. A red schism. Very unique. With the exception of another ounce of sterling 24g, I am pretty set for my next update, supply-wise. I've decided that with the ABQ move right about the time I usually have an update, I am going to do two smaller updates... one before I head out (with enough time to mail things out) and one once I am settled in.
In other news, I've been perusing Haunt's etsy shop-- they just came out with a bunch of new scents. Not that I need more bath stuff, mind you. I have enough soap to last me a good long while, and a few yummy sugar scrubs in waiting, to boot. I have yet to try Haunt's glossing oils or their scrubs, but the following scent descriptions are drawing me in:
Rasa:: hot ginger creamed with coconut milk, nutmeg, apricot, nectarine, mandarin, dark patchouli and sandalwood
Kamadeva:: freshly crushed sugarcane, green lemon, pink grapefruit, jasmine, lotus, passion-red rose and soft sandalwood
Gloaming:: vanilla, dark patchouli, amber, mandarin orange and red clove
Lovehound:: intoxicating amber resin deepened with sandalwood, soft spices and a drop of Moroccan rose
Roma:: Cardamom, Blood Orange and Mandarin
I can't wait to hear reviews.
