I had a whole big post that went poof also...I'll make this short and sweet. My 2nd sampler arrived and I tried Coconut Lime Verbena...liked it. Smells exactly like Bath&Body Works products. I will send the other half to my daughter in San Diego...she loves that smell also. I had ordered TP's in Citrus Melange, but Alyce emailed me and said it wasn't available anymore. I did get 1 in my sampler and not quite sure about it on the cold throw. There is something in there that smelled like dirty socks. I'll wait to pass "stinky girl" status until I burn it...LOL! And just an FYI, while the ebay soy tarts smelled ok on cold throw, I could hardly smell them when I burned them...SJ is my ONLY choice for tarts from now on...Alyce is QUEEN!!!!

Crzn, i think the dirty socks one is for laundry rooms! i am almost glad my margarita one quit scenting. i was actually salivating for a margarita for 3 or 4 days! i could taste it! i have a wrought iron stand with a handlbown pitcher and six margarita glasses from mexico on the brick near my indoor BBQ. i put the tart on the window sill next to it. it was a perfect setting, except that the damn glasses did not have frosty margaritas in them!!

Just read on another site that BB7 will be an all star group, and we get to vote for our favorites. I'm sure Kaysar's fan base will be voting for him to be on this summer's show.

I hope we get a good "pool" of 20 to chose from! I'm liking the Coconut Lime Verbena, too. I didn't like the Coconut Peach since all I could smell was the coconut so I gave it to my DD. She loves coconut since it reminds her of the beach and she uses shampoo that makes her smell that way so I figured it will be a winner with her. I love the Vanilla Hazelnut - good enough to drink.. lol, but DS doesn't like it as much as he doesn't like the smell of my coffee. Oh well, he is allergic to nuts! Has anyone else noticed that it seems to take a bit longer to smell the tart when using the silicups or is it just me? And I KNOW it could be, just me. LOL

I see my welcome back post to Cathie was lost! Glad to hear you're moved in and got your internet up. I can't thank you enough for your generous sharing with me. I've been like a kid in a candy shop. You're a sweetie!

Another order went out for me today...for some reason, when I ordered Watermelon Martini, it kept opening another cart instead of adding to my already expanding cart. I just skipped it, since I already had plenty in my cart already. I should have 2 orders delivered this week.....YAHOO!!!

Calling all Tartettes, Alyce sent me a surprise TP, but it is missing the name....it's a dark purple and the smell is familiar, but I can't put my finger on it. I know it's not Vineyard, Lavender Milk, or Lavender,Apples and Oak. Does anybody have any dark purple tarts that they might want to throw a name my way? And I am burning my new TP of Coconut Pear in my bedroom....I looooooove this scent. It might be my fave so far. It's quiet in here lately. Maybe everyone is on vacation somewhere this week.

According to the USPS tracking my March 23 order was delivered today, but I don't have it! I am going to the PO first thing in the morning to see if it is there. It has my stash of Lavender Apples & Oak and I will go door to door looking for it if I have to, lol. Thanks for the welcome back, Watching. I am glad you found a willing recipient for your not-so-good ones in your dd. We can get her hooked and she can order some and share with you, too!

Hi Crz - hmmm...if fruity smelling, maybe Blackberry Sage? If bakery smelling, maybe Boysenberry Butter Cookie? Floral, maybe Lilac? I will have to consult the spreadsheet for more ideas later - what category would you put it under?

Tabby, have you run out of samples yet? Which were your favorites, and did you have any yucky-to-you ones?

Yikes, Cathie - that is a tart nightmare! I hope the p.o. has it. I am sure it will turn up, either from a neighbor or at the p.o. I am sure you have already checked all your mail carrier's favorite hiding places around your entryway?

Lovely, Sophisticated Lady and one of my TPs of Black Raspberry & Vanilla - all purple. Another TP of BRV was pink.

Oops, forgot to say it's not Boysenberry Cookie...got that in my sampler a couple of days ago. I did order a doz. of Blackberry Sage on my order today because it has such positive comments (haven't smelled it or maybe I have with mystery scent). Wait, it smells like Annie Green Springs wine. J/K...this scent is driving me crazy. I know I have smelled it somewhere before. Maybe a Bath&Body Works scent...

Crz - does it smell like a grape popsicle? Are you sure it's not Vineyard?

I don't think so, but my youngest is coming over tonight and I gave her Vineyard, so I'll ask her. I could smell the grape in Vineyard immediately...the mystery scent doesn't smell like grape. I am so glad I don't have an internet cam. I look really stupid here, typing, sipping a martini, sniffing, typing, sipping......

LOL! You all crack me up. I love all the little images you come up with....I should be getting another delivery today, so we'll see what that holds in samples. This is so fun!

I retrieved my package from the PO today--it had been sent on the wrong route yesterday and they were holding it for me--yippee! I tried some new-to-me scents in TPs this time (I learned from a full dozen of Neroli di Orsini that I shouldn't order a full bag until I try them first!) I am liking the cold sniff on all but one. The good sniffs are Serendipitous (type), it is really yummy, Lilac, Lime Blossom, Constant Comment Tea (you can really smell the orange and cloves on cold sniff), and Hawaiian Ginger (very good one! The only one of the TPs I am uncertain of is the Rosemary Mint. I am hoping that a full cure time will make it a little more appealing. I got some samples that are new to me. Gardenia Blossom was very nice, not too strong as I was afraid it might be. Other new ones are Southern Sock-It-To-Me Cake, Spanish Melon, Dark Tanning Oil, Sugar Blossom and Butter Cream Crunch, which I have been anxious to try. I don't remember Dark Tanning Oil on her site--is this maybe a test one? My fav in the order was my long awaited Lavender, Apples & Oak. I had a dozen for me, a dozen for my boss and a body spray in LA&O, so the package was great smelling (I think the postal worker maybe didn't want to let go of it yesterday, lol.) Another co-worker wants to order it and now I can't find it on the site--do the scents just drop off the list when she is out of them? Oh, one of my co-workers had ordered a bag of Amaretto in this shipment and left me one that I am warming now in my office. I am liking it a lot!

Cathie, it was in Other Scents (and is still listed when you bring up description of scents), but I noticed there are a couple of blank squares. Maybe Alyce pulled it. I would email her and check, especially if it's one of your faves.
