My days are 2-3 hours shorter than in the past, filled with marvelous adventures of another sort, and I have been forced to scale back considerably. In fact, I may very well run out of stock before Thanksgiving. Well, that's not such a bad thing, is it? Available beginning October 31st. Get'em while they're still warm!

Spring Begins March 4th at 10A

Green

Upon a preview sniff of Handful of Herbs our friend Corey exclaimed, "Ugh, this smells like yard work!"

And I couldn't have been happier, "Exactly!"

My husband doesn't expect that Handful of Herbs is going to be a big seller. There's very little gray area with his predictions, so the majority of you will either love it or hate it. I love it. The sun is steadily melting the thick piles of blizzard that shut down the city of Chicago a few weeks ago, the days are growing longer and there's an occasional bird tweet to be heard. It'll be several weeks before we see buds and sprouts. But our home smells like summer. Bliss.

39th Annual Junior League of Chicago Gazebo Holiday Market

Will you find our candles there? Kind of. Purely Poured is donating a trio of holiday scents to the Junior League of Chicago Gazebo Raffle. What are your chances of winning? Well, who's to say. But don't let that deter you. Go! When is the last time you strolled through Chicago Cultural Center?

The money raised by all the participating rafflers goes to help over 6,000 at-risk women and children. And the 40 well-chosen vendors donate much of their profit as well. Looking for a gift? This is the time and place:

78 E Washington (77 E Randolph entrance)
