B&BW Online: More Winter newness

At this point back home, it'd be feeling nice and crisp, but I'm still boiling, come on light jacket weather, as that's all I can hope for!

   

Lastly, and although probably a bit late, the rest of Amber Blush:

Wal-Mart, Target finds

I'd like to start this off by saying this is nearly ALL food stuff. I am shameless about that. I love Fall goodies. 

The Pumpkin Cheesecake candle was a Target find. I had seen Brandon reviewing it a while back and whilst perusing the candles, I went looking for it and found this little 4 oz. for $4. It smells very strongly of cheesecake with a hint of pumpkin. I'm pretty sure I died and went to heaven, just a little bit, upon taking the lid off and smelling. I did begin burning it last night. It takes a long while to pool up and wouldn't pool completely but it wasn't a disaster and shows promise. If you like cheesecake, this is a cheap buy! Get it while it's there.

The rest (aka, food) came from Wal-Mart when I was actually just out for odds and ends for meals. PIC is a big fan of Marshmallows and found Pumpkin shaped ones, regular flavour, but then found these. Pumpkin Spice. Yummy. I am not a big fan of Marshmallows on their own. When I was a kid, we had a gas stove, so I would hold them over a flame and get them toasty before eating. But these aren't too bad honestly! 

The Pumpkin Cookies are essentially Pumpkin Spice cookies with Cream Cheese flavoured chips. We baked these last night and they are quite good! No prep. They are already formed in circles and ready to lay on the pan. Bake for about 15 minutes and you get soft cookies with slightly crispy edges that taste like a little chunk of heaven. In my humble opinion. 

The Caramel Apple cookie mix was PIC's choice. I showed them to him and he threw them into the cart without me getting a say. He is going to make these sometime soon. 

Lastly, a box of Pumpkin Spice pudding because why not? I have graham cracker crusts laying around so I'll put it to use. 

I can't stress enough that Fall is my favourite time of year with Winter in a close second. Christmas is fast approaching. My how this time of year flies by!

Winter Newness

I haven't been posting as frequently as I'd like to these days, unfortunately, life happens. I do have some stuff to share today though! First, I have winter newness from B&BW. Then I have a small haul from yesterday, NON-B&BW, Pumpkin galore!

   
   
 How cute are the tags on the wallflower bulbs? Ugh I love this artwork for the labels. Next up, Fall finds out shopping.

A small outing; Christmas already?

Alright B&BW, ya got me. Sort of.

I ran a couple errands today and of course stopped by B&BW whilst out with the plan to buy a couple Mason Jars, but before I could check out, there I saw it. 4 Christmas Pocketbacs.

  • Candy Cane Bliss - Peppermint Schnapps. Am I right?
  • Winter Cranberry - Tart cranberry with a hint of a pine note.
  • Fresh Sparkling Snow - Smells a little like watermelon to me. When it dries, I can definitely smell tree.
  • Fresh Balsam - Smells a bit earthy and woodsy. Not as terrible as I figured an anti-bac in this scent might do.
These are going in the cabinet for now and NOT coming out until after Halloween at least. Back to your regularly scheduled Fall programming.
