Heavenly Reed Diffusers and Body Scrubs

So with as stressful as times can be right now, my friends and I have been looking for ways to distress. Especially while reading, because after all reading is supposed to be relaxing, and if you cant relax what’s the point. I love scents; anyone who knows me knows how much I love scents. So I thought I would do a little search for some reed diffusers, and bath products. I found this great website with the best best body scrub.

They have a wide array of yummy scents, and even yummier products for relaxing. They have a reed diffuser set called Champagne, which is just positively yummy. I set it out while I have been reading my current book the Boleyn Inheritance, and maybe it’s just my active imagination, but its helping me feel like I am more a part of the book. Is that silly? I don’t really think so; scents are a big way to transport you really…

If you’re looking for a fun bath and body company I would check that website out, I think it was a great find on my searching. And I am pretty picky myself over my smells, and all my other bath and body choices. I get laughed at a lot by the old drummer boy who says I could probably scent a whole country with my collection of smells. But he also didn’t disagree with the website I found when I showed him some of the body oils. Typical male right? That’s okay though, I like that kind of stuff too because it softens your skin, and with the Minnesota winter I can really use some skin oil to soften it up. We have yet another winter weather warning out right now. Its march, why can’t the weather go away. Rain and thunderstorms I could take but this snow and sleep needs to go. I think its time to go set my champagne reed diffuser up again and settle down and relax.

Musing Mondays: #3

What is your policy when it comes to new authors? Do you feel comfortable purchasing a book, or do you prefer to borrow new authors from the library? How often do you ‘try out’ a new author?


I do not really have a policy about new authors. The fact is I am often reading new authors because the book looks good, or because a friend reccomended the book to me. In general I am more comfortable getting a new authors book via borrowing or a trade on Paperback Swap, but if the book really appeals to me I will buy it. Someone being new is not a good reason for me to not buy a book. After all every author was new at one time.

Book Review: Bergdorf Blondes by Plum Skyes

Plum Sykes burst on to the literary scene in 2004 with her beguiling debut novel introducing readers to the glamorous world of PAPs (Park Avenue Princesses) and her loveable heroine, Moi, a “champagne bubble of a girl” who became an instant hit with readers from coast to coast.




I am sorry it took me so many years after publication for me to find this book. The Bergdorf Blondes is a really wonderful romp through socialite New York. The book follows the point of view of Moi, with her friends Julie Bergdorf (the queen bee of society), Lara and Jolene and may others. At some parts you want to laugh and ask yourself can anyone really be this shallow. They abbreviate everything including the word PH for potential husband. But, at the end of the day you really just do have to laugh about it.

Moi takes us not only into the world of the fashion obsessed “Princesses of Park Avenue” but through a series of her own very poor relationship mistakes. There is Zach, the moody depressing photographer who treats her like crap, who she almost marries. Eduardo the married, with children prince from some where or another, Patrick the married man with the psycho wife. And of course the very “regrettable” Charlie Dulain, who is Julie’s boy friend, or so she thought. You will get a few curve balls you didn’t see coming in this fun little run around the world, from New York to Rio and back again. I recommend reading this one if you want something easy, and something to lighten your mood.
