Candle Scents To Enhance the Season: Fall Into Winter
by: Lisa DeClue
To decide on just a few candles is like choosing between eating chocolate and having lots of chocolate to eat? With so many scents to choose from, it's next to impossible to choose just one. This is part two of several articles to follow on choosing candle and fragrance scents for your home.
Having the perfect scent can vitalize my day and scents can improve one?s mood. Citrus scents rejuvenate and create energy, lavender scents are calming, and ?holiday? scents are reminiscent of home. And then there?s the primordial magic of the flickering flame and poetry in certain scent combinations. So what do I use to renew myself? Home & Garden Party.
Here are some suggestions for scents that "fit" the months of November through February.
Blueberry Muffin:
Along with Hot Cinnamon Rolls, this one will make you hungry! Soft, warm and delicious.
Christmas Memories:
A little spicy, a lot warm and wonderful, this scent is a must for the holidays. I enjoy it burning with after dinner coffee!
Bahama Breeze:
This breath of fresh ocean air is most welcome during the doldrums of winter.
Cr?me Brul?e:
This is perhaps my favorite fragrance because it is soft and creamy with a warm custard smell. Yummy!
Relax, Spearmint & Eucalyptus:
Fresh, calming with a hint of mint, this is a very soothing scent to have going in the background.
Of course, my favorite way to diffuse scent throughout my home is to use the Home & Garden Party Fragrance Lamp. The lamp uses an alcohol-based ?oil? and is wicked up to a heating stone. After allowing the stone to warm for about three minutes, you blow out the flame and enjoy pure, clean fragrance that will permeate an entire floor of your home. It is very useful ridding the house of the stuffy, heated smell of winter indoors and really adds a pleasant aroma.
With refills in spiced apple, lavender, creamy vanilla, citrus infusion, floral medley, woodland breeze and passion flower, there?s at least one to please your nose and your visitors!

Your Dogs Health - Your Guide to Accidental Poisoning
Your Dogs Health - Your Guide to Accidental Poisoning
by: Brent Jones
There are numerous poisonous substances that can be fatal to dogs and cats, but accidental poisoning can be avoided in most cases if we remember to keep as many of these substances out of reach of our pets. If you suspect that your dog or cat has been poisoned take a moment to try and retrace their movements to detect what type of poison they were exposed to, and then get the animal to the veterinarian at once. No matter what remedies may be suggested here or from other sources, always take the affected animal to a veterinarian as soon as possible, as this may be the only way to save your pets life.
Food poisoning is probably the most common because dogs are not discriminating in the selection of substances they eat if they find the smell attractive, and if their owners want to give them a ?treat? in the form of table scraps, leftovers, candy, and drinks, (this is especially...

How Cookie Monster Can Help You Lose Fat

When was the last time you watched Sesame Street? If you have a youngster at home, maybe it was this morning! For most of us, however, it's been years since we last viewed Big Bird and the gang. But, even now as adults, our friends from Sesame Street still have a lot to teach us.
Everyone loves Cookie Monster, that blue fellow that can never seem to get enough cookies. Cookie Monster never worried about calories, fat content or serving size.....he just wanted cookies! Who can forget the song "C is for cookie - that's good enough for me!"?
But in this age of skyrocketing obesity rates and health care costs, even Cookie Monster has changed his eating habits. There?s even a new song: "A Cookie Is a Sometimes Food," where Cookie Monster learns there are "anytime" foods and "sometimes" foods. (Source: The Associated Press, 2005; MSNBC)
Cookie Monster still eats cookies. After...
