Snow Day Giveaway / Wild Oats & Bourbon Candle
[CONTEST CLOSED. WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCED SATURDAY, 1/29.]
I discovered the Nest Fragrances Wild Oats & Bourbon candle at last summer's Laura Slatkin event, and ever since I've been obsessed. It's cozy, exotic, and infused with notes of ginger and bourbon, and is just perfect for the winter months - I want my entire apartment to smell exactly like this from October through March.

A Stroll Down Memory Lane / Frosted Flakes Commercial c. 1994
This is my second "acting" job (in quotes because I don't know that a Frosted Flakes commercial necessarily counts as "acting"), from when I was 13 or so.
Black & White Buckeye Pops!
Last week, Kendrick's Aunt Nancy sent us a care package containing everything we needed to make Buckeyes (plus a recipe!), and our lazy Sunday afternoon was the perfect time to give them a spin.
