It's a man-smell...

I spent yesterday with several friends and my sister. I may or may not have mentioned that I'll be a bridesmaid in April for a friend's wedding and we had to do some shopping for bridesmaid dresses. Fortunately we found them and they were only $30!! Miraculous! I think my shoes will probably be more expensive than the dress! After shopping we met up with Becky and my sister (they were shopping separately - Becky for maternity clothes and my sister for work clothing) for a delicious luncheon at The Olive Garden. Yumm!

Anyhow, after all was said and done, and we had parted for our separate ways, I stopped for a few additional items that I was needing - a specific book that was missing from the series I'm reading, a wine rack, and a powerball ticket. LOL The wine rack was from Pier I Imports and I ended up with a few additional items besides the wine rack - small ramekins for desserts and a candle. The candle smelled so delicious when I took the glass top off that it seemed it would fill the room with the odor of an exotic dessert. However, when I opened it up this morning, cut down the wick and lit it, the room filled up with a curious spicey scent that wasn't unpleasant, but certainly wasn't the effect I had hoped to have. It was while I was talking to my mother that it hit me...it was a man-smell...like a spicey men's cologne. LOL I wasn't a big fan of it so I don't think I'll be burning it that often. What a disappointment!
