Soy Wax Candle Blog From Kats 

Candles

Along for the Ride

New, Margarita Candles! Enjoy!

Posted by KAT Monday, April 20, 2009 0 comments

margarita candles soy wax photo image pictureI made some Margaritas!! Only not the kind you drink, but the kind you can burn!!
That's right, these are actually soy wax candles in a margarita glass, that when the candle is completely burned down, you can wash the remaining wax out of the glass with hot soapy water and re-use the glass!! How cool!

But in the meantime, you can enjoy the lovely scent of the candle. You don't even have to burn it to have the scent in the air. My soy wax candles are so strong that you can just leave them on the counter or table, and they will scent the air around them.

This yummy one is a strawberry margarita, and I have done the wax on the top to look like shaved ice. It is a lot of work, but well worth it when you get a finished product like this.

I have also been making tarts or melts as some places in the country call them, and they are always a good seller.

Okay, back to the grind for me!!
Take care,
Kat

A Wonderful Place for Medical Scrubs

Posted by KAT Wednesday, April 15, 2009 4 comments

I don't know if any of you remember, but I work in a Hospital, and the girls are constantly looking for great deals on "scrubs" (the comfortable clothing that doctors, nurses and medical assistants wear).

We have found this amazing site on the internet called Scrubs and Beyond, and they have the most diverse selection of scrubs, that we literally spent our whole lunch period looking at all the different styles and designs.

Now, scrubs have come a long way since the plain old light blue or pale green sets you used to see everywhere!! And although you can still get those if you want...why would you want to?? You can have fun and updated designs that make you actually feel good about what you are wearing when you go to work!

They have amazing print scrub tops with cute and whimsical designs, and character prints, or just a stunning pattern with color! If you are specifically looking for print scrub jackets, they have those too! You can wear a cotton Tee, or turtleneck underneath the jackets. Again, they have wonderful patterns, ohhh, and lots of pockets too!! That is an important thing that we all look for!!

Here are some of my favorites, and they don't even look like the traditional medical scrubs:




The thing I like about both of these is, I happen to love black and white, and the top looks like a designer top, not part of a scrubs outfit!! You could even wear this for a night out on the town, it is just that pretty! It is part of their "Koi line".

And the pants are an elastic waistband with drawstring....we all know there is nothing more comfortable than a pair of pants that feels like you have your jammies on!! :) Now these to me look just like a pair of workout pants...not something you go to work in!! So that was a big plus!! And they just look so comfy!!


Now this next one is just so girly and pink, and CUTE!!! I love this one!!! Again, does this look like a Scrubs top to you??? No, me neither!!

You could also wear this one out, because you can't tell that it is a scrubs top!! I love how they have really updated the designs here! Everything seems so new and trendy! They also have a full line of Landau medical scrubs which is a well known line if you buy scrubs. They have the traditional Physician jackets, and scrubs, along with shoes and many other items.

Anyway, I just wanted to let you know, in case you are also looking for Medical scrubs to wear!

Take care,

Kat

I went to a Twilight DVD Release Party!

Posted by KAT Saturday, March 21, 2009 12 comments

So, last night, my daughter Angela and I were all excited to go to a "Twilight DVD Release Party" that they were having at our local Borders Book Store.

We were to show up at 7:00pm to get our wristbands to hold our place in line to get our copies of the 2 disc DVD for $29.99.
I was there earlier in the day, so I could see what we had to do, and I picked up this beauty of a calendar, that I can't wait to hang....only thing is, it doesn't start till July 2009...WTF??? Who starts calendars in July??
Twilight Calendar Bella and Edward image photo pictureAnyway, we show up before 7:00 pm and the line is already forming inside the store....we wait for our turn, and when we get up to the front of the line (about 7:15) we hear that they have no more double disc DVD's with the special cards insert, but they still have single DVD's available FOR $19.99. ??? huh???

But good sports that we are, we take our tickets (notice I said tickets and not wristbands?? Sounds like a train wreck already) and head off to eat somewhere until the party starts at 10:00pm.

I also bought this new Director's Notebook, by Catherine Hardwicke, which has lots of inside looks into the making of the movie, with costume sketches, set scouting locations, ideas, etc.


Twilight Directors Notebook photo image pictureAnd I got this really cool Edward bookmark, that I fell in love with when I saw it!
And it was the last one there of it's kind.
The flash kind of washed out the Edward photo, but he is looking so sweet as his vampire self....lol
And the back says in script writing....."Look after my heart...I've left it with you"

Edward Cullen Twilight BookmarkOk, so back to the party....we go back to Borders before 10pm, I'll just wrap it up here, we filled out a Twilight Questionaire and passed it in to hopefully win a prize (we didn't) and then they sent us on a scavenger hunt all thru the store finding books on different things, and remembering to name the authors too, like: "Visit the animals section and find a book about the animal that caused Emmett to become a vampire: write the title and author here:" or "Visit the religion section and find the book that Stephanie Meyer says inspired the image on the Twilight book cover. Write the title here." and stuff like that....
Now we realize that was just to keep us busy, they didn't give prizes for this, and where was the food and drinks they promised us???? This just used up time so the clock could tick towards midnight, when they could legally sell "Twilight" the DVD.

So, I have to say this party was LAME~

Loser photoWe knew we weren't getting the 2 disc DVD anyway, so we left before midnight!
And then this morning I went to Target and got the 3 disc Twilight DVD set for $17.99!!! Wooooo HOOOO!!!
Isn't it funny how things work out for some reason??
Gotta Love it~!!!!

Translation Please?!?

Fortune Cookie image photo picture
Steve and I went out for dinner tonight, and we went to a Chinese restaurant and had a lovely meal, and after dinner, the waiter brought the fortune cookies...

This is what mine said: Even in the greatest confusion there is an open channel into the soul. ?!


What the heck does that mean?? They got the confusion part right...I'm very confused and don't understand what it's supposed to mean?


Can someone help me out??

Well, you see, I was over at PaperCages' blog, dropping off an award, and noticed this meme she did, and she said she broke the rules....so I thought....Hey, Me too!!! lol

Now, I wasn't awarded this meme, or even tagged with it....I just Stole it!!!!

So, the purpose of this meme is to put your name in Google, and right after your name you type in "needs" and then hit search.....and then see what comes up??
I thought it was hysterical to give it a try, after reading Tricia's answers, so here is my contribution to the "needy" meme.....lol

Kat's Signature

Kat Needs:

1) Kat needs money to feed her heinous addiction to Gummy Worms....

I had to laugh at this one..can you even imagine??? I personally would never post this on the internet for all to see, but someone did....poor thing!!

2) Kat Needs A Rest

Well, yeah, this is more true than I would like to think....

3) Kat Needs You! Calling all men! We want YOU

LMAO boy, won't I be needing a rest after that???

4) Kat-needs-help

In more ways than one, let me tell ya...and Tricia I'm here with you in the help wanting department!

5) Kat needs BBT training

I don't even know what BBT training is??? Is it something scary??? Someone tell me!

6) Kat needs to stop fooling around

Well, see if I did this, I could get that well deserved rest that I need.

7) Kat Needs A Keyboardist!

Not me personally, but whoever this Kat is....she needs one bad!! This must have been posted at least 10 times!!! Please, Kat is in a band and she needs a keyboardist!! Help her out!!

8) Kat needs coffee

Well, no I don't...I don't like coffee...but give me a cuppa tea, and now we're talkin'

9) Kat needs to start posting again

Hey, is this rigged, and is someone watching me?? How do they know??

10) Kat needs our prayers!


Okay, yeah, I can use all the help I can get....what you need to pray about, I don't have the foggiest....but all prayers are good prayers, right??

So those are my ten things I am in need of.....do you think you can help me out??? LOL I seriously didn't think that anything would come up, and was a little shocked that all this and then some did!!

I am not going to tag anyone....but I would love it if you played along...
Just leave me a note letting me know you did, so I can go and read your answers!
Take care,

A Friendship Award, Yay!

Posted by KAT Saturday, February 28, 2009 7 comments

My good friend Pink Lady Bing gave me this Friendship award, and I am so happy! She awarded not only my little neglected Candle blog, but also my other blog, Candles, Crafts and Whatnot! What a great friend to remember both of my blogs!! Her blog ~ Of Living, Loving ... and Coping is one of the best blogs that I have ever found in this blogosphere!
Bing is an inspiration to women everywhere, with her positive outlook, and cheery attitude, and she is forever spreading the love around!! Thank you!
(Pssst, I stole her love bear image, because I loved it so much! I hope she doesn't mind? Isn't it the cutest?)
Anyway, This is the award, and I LOVE IT! It has hearts, and the word friends in it, and "red" my favorite color....what's not to love??

This is what the "Let's Be Friends" Award represents:

These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award.

So, That being said, I am awarding this to:

CB's Polyworks

rkdsign88
Health Nut Wannabee Mom
Nanjo Dogz
P and J Crafts
Red Sox Mommy
PaperCages
