Cathie~ Tealights work fine, but yes, you have to change them often and also... the nicest part about the soytarts is that they don't omit the 'crud' into the air that candles and tealights do because of the flame. They're cleaner breathin'!

If we all post another time or so, maybe the page will archive and we won't have to scroll side to side anymore! lol

Oh and Cathie ~ you can get tarts at BB & B. I think Sea found the Yankee Candle Company's McIntosh Apples? Anyway, I think they are parafin wax tarts and not soy tarts... soy have a cleaner 'melt' to them... BUT, try the ones you can buy in the store and then try Alyce's! You'll love Alyce's for sure! Thanks Mods for the links

Well, links fixed and then I found a tonk in El Cajon and three in LA somewhere.. and I was just glancing down and saw "free bag of tarts" so I must now go back an archive to check THAT out.. Joely about the medium black lullabee hoodie!! hint for links, you can use a short phrase for the second part of \newurl { link,description } or you can go to the website http.tinyurl.com and convert a very long url to a .. tiny one that can then be used. Sorry I didn't get the links earlier but my upstairs connection is tenuous since it depends on the open network of who knows who.. I must get my password so I can link to my own network downstairs..

Yes.. I got some Macintosh tarts at BB & B yesterday and used one last night and it was very nice. On the label they say they last 8 hours.

Jinksy LOL, now don't start me on pugs too. They are certainly adorable looking pups and I've heard they're very sweet, but I'm a cat girl. I thought this consumer's marathon I have been on was finally over today but then you have to go and post pics of those dotted ramikins! Did someone say you got them in HomeGoods...we just had one open down the street last month. Oh my!! I can feel a new desire coming on.

LOL - landi & Holly! Holly - Julip got those cute polka-dot ramekins at HomeGoods. I have a serious problem at HG.... I go for one thing and come out with many things. I have always had a plethora of white and off-white ramekins, and now with the addition of the silicone baking cups I really don't need to shop for ramekins, but I feel the HG trip coming on anyway. It's the ritual of the tart, it's getting to me. lol

The BNB sure sounds wonderful as does the Vanilla Hazelnut swirl. BUT I must be good (repeating to self x100).

it's weird when you say that bonza, cuz my daughter is named holly. here is a pic of her when she was 4 with our tonk, ariel. ariel was about 6 months old here. holly is now 15 1/2 and ariel is 11!

The BNB is wonderful! I ordered a whole bag the other day (serves me right, before the sale, too). Bonza, the Creamy Peppermint was a bit of a sinus-clearer here the one time I tried it, but I'll try again. Seems like what Joely needed to get her sense of smell back. landi.. I just got three individual yankee tarts of the macintosh from YC.. I think you'll like it. It smells true to what you'll smell through the wrapper in the store, too. If they carry the hand/dish liquid, give that a smell too.

landi - I love that pic! And TVCH Holly should know that Ariel is a Tonk! Now that you mention it, Sea - I've had a semi-runny nose for a while today. I guess it's the Creamy Peppermint. lol

Wow, Ariel has beautiful eyes. I never realized there were so many Tonks around. Re the semi-runny nose, Bonza. Could it be the art of the tart? ETA: Your Holly is beautiful too, Landi

I just got back from Cost Plus. I am not a tart expert, but have been reading all your posts. I think Cost Plus is ramekin heaven. They have plain white ones, plain red ones, and white ones rimmed in blue and in red for 99 cents. They have heart shaped ones and fluted ones for $1.99 and some really pretty ceramic ones in pink, yellow and green for $2.99. I bought some of each so I will try to post a picture. (Not very good at it, but will try.) Now all I need is my tarts.
