No idea where they all went. Fortunately, nothing important will have been lost.<br /><br />@Dear SP - I guess we're just sloppy candle blowers? Or we have very stubborn candles? Lash growing serum indeed! I dare you to try in only on one eye to make a camparison...!<br /><br />@Beryl - It sounds very brave putting your finger behind a flame. I might get Bill to try it sometime...I'm too chicken! (Besides, he doesn't wear nail polish). Bowling shoes sound wonderful!! I used to love bowling. I even took a class at college...when I had to do PE and hated it. Who knew I'd end up running marathons in my middle age??<br /><br />@Expat Mom - 'Bobeches' - a new word I've never heard! Our candles don't seem to drip much, but I shall look out for bobeches just for the fun. <br /><br />@Terri - I read a blog called Pleasant View Schoolhouse where they give each of the children the gift of a trip to the place of their choice (I'm sure there are boundaries). Then during the year one parent flies off to that place - like Chicago or New York - alone with the child. It seems a great idea (they obviously have more money that we did when I was a kid). Look forward to hearing about your vacation!Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10239488936038510294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193495388714584422.post-3726127577815837082012-01-20T05:37:13.906+00:002012-01-20T05:37:13.906+00:00The candle gizmo seems such an elegant thing to me...The candle gizmo seems such an elegant thing to me.<br /><br />We treated each other to a brief vacation for Christmas.

Don't forget that you can buy "bobeches" that are glass disks and they go around the bottom of the candle, catching all the drips.Expat mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17798190669591053390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193495388714584422.post-7590189546240366282012-01-19T02:18:25.494+00:002012-01-19T02:18:25.494+00:00Hi Shelley!

When I can't find mine, I use the old trick of holding an upright finger in front of the flame and blowing straight at the finger. This keeps the wax from spraying around.<br />I got bowling shoes for Christmas. Since moving to Tulsa, I have started bowling on Friday afternoons and mentioned how tired I was of paying to wear old shoes. Turns out that finding bowling shoes is not that easy.Berylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08386043271411304736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193495388714584422.post-39710637904635549212012-01-18T22:47:14.439+00:002012-01-18T22:47:14.439+00:00I have a few of them but I've never made a mes...I have a few of them but I've never made a mess with wax when blowing out candles. How hard do you normally blow?????<br /><br />Perhaps the oddest thing I got for Christmas is lash growing serum, but I did pick it out, buy it, collect the store's loyalty points and brought it home. I handed it to husband and told him to give it to me for Christmas :O) And everyone was happy!Suburban Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08229769705478339351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193495388714584422.post-62359136278345880342012-01-18T20:42:18.215+00:002012-01-18T20:42:18.215+00:00Hello Shelley:

At this point you probably have too much stuff already. What you needed most was their time and attention and it sounded as though you got that. I'm sure they appreciated the green stuff! Bill has 'views' about giving cash, so I don't really have the option of that much simplicity. And I do like making stuff, even if it's just for a joke. Enjoying your tour of Florida...Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10239488936038510294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193495388714584422.post-9333119856016842092012-01-18T13:54:36.154+00:002012-01-18T13:54:36.154+00:00Nope, Nada.

They all believed me and acted accordingly. ;-> Of course, what I gave them was all the same. It was green and one size fits all.
