Aromatherapy

Visual Aromatherapy

by

One of my gifts was a couple candles, and you can never have enough aromatherapy… in fact I have an assload of candles I really need to burn! This one is a lemon watermint candle, and I also have a watermelon one (surprise, surprise). I liked the look of this one though, it inspired me to pull out my camera and play with different settings. I snapped a bunch of different shots on different settings, and this one was the best one out of the bunch. I was trying to go for cozy lighting. My only complaint is that the flame is too bright, but at the same time the softness has a certain charm to it.

Therapeutic Anti Stress Melon?

Apparently I’ve built a reputation at work. Anytime a watermelon product comes in now random people that range from people I’ve worked with to people I barely know will pull me aside to show me watermelon related collectables. This little one was brought to my attention yesterday, and for about five bucks I decided a lavender scented melon wedge. I’ve never seen watermelon products in the winter… at least locally. Where the seven layers of party dip is this sudden trend of watermelon coming from? I’m still trying to figure out why it’s lavender scented. Then again there were alternative options that I could have purchased which include a cactus, avocado (fuck the avocado, but seriously don’t fuck the avocado) and french fries which carry the same scent of flowers.

I might try microwaving it a bit tonight before bed. The scent alone lulled me to sleep last night upon going horizontal, either that or the entire two hours of sleep I had before going to work at 3 AM to work may have had a slight influence.
