There are very few things that I will endorse whole heartedly, so I thought I would occasionally post some of my favorite things that I "can't" live without! (ha)
A few days ago after a good shopping day with Abby, I didn't think my day could get much better. I was wrong! You wouldn't think one brown box from the UPS guy could bring a girl so much happiness, but if you could smell the candle that I knew was waiting inside, you would understand!
I love love love candles, especially during fall and winter, because the cookie, pumpkin, spice and holiday scents just make my house feel so warm and cozy and there are so many choices that fall into this category. Bird of Paradise by Circle E is my summer/spring candle and my favorite of all time. I have bought one every spring since 2005. It's their most popular candle (for good reason) and when I light it the entire house smells wonderful. It's very creamy sweet, but still in the "cozy house" category. Can't even describe it. I told Brooke he could get me only this every single Valentine's Day and I would be perfectly happy. I also bought the Pear Essence candle and it is wonderful too. My favorite "warm weather" candles by far are made by this company. (My favorite "cold weather" candles are Yankee Candles) If you are a candle lover, you have try them out (especially this one)!
Who doesn't love a Magic Eraser? I go through the house with this in hand just looking for things to use it on! Thank goodness these came out when Abby was about 2 and would color on the walls! I was one happy mom! I have made tennis shoes look like new...tea stained the counter? No problem! I have made our pizza and metal baking dishes sparkle like new! Best thing ever!
As much as I hate to spend extra, expecially on myself, there are a few things that are so worth it. This is one of them. I first discovered the "no shave gel" razors back in 2002 with the Shick Intuition but this version is my favorite. 
I really don't have much to say about this except it's on the top of my list of my favorite things for my hair. I have a long list of hair products and could not go out in public without the help of my Chi iron. It's hard to scrimp on hair products when you highlight your hair like I do because it can get so damaged, so I'll save that list for another time! Thank goodness for ebay where I recently discovered I can get most of this at about half the price!

Great post! I have never heard of this candle before so I will have to try it. I am in love with Yankee candles and spend wayyyy too much on them every year. I couldn't live without my biosilk...ok maybe I could but I would look like I had a ball of frizz on top of my head! LOL
