Sweet as pie...

Over the weekend I was finally able to make a few candles that I've been dieing to do!
The lovely scent to them is Apple Pie...YUM! 
They smell good, they are an all natural soy wax candle.
I didn't get time to decorate them, I'm thinking I'll probably tie a cute ribbon or twine on them :) 

I love the smell and look of burning candles. 
And there's just something about making your house smell like the seasons! 
That warm and cozy feeling.



 You might have already gotten a sneak peak of my new beads a 
couple posts ago, so here they are! I've already dug into making a few pairs of earrings and two bracelets with them. I'll have to show those soon! :) 

MMMMM..... it's crock pot time:::
We had some chicken left over from another dinner, so I decided to put some chicken and cut carrots in the crock pot. I wanted something to give it a good flavor so I went upstairs (to some Tastefully Simple inventory I had) and grabbed a Creamy Wild Rice Soup mix.

Here I added in the soup mix....that only calls for 2 1/2 cups of water and stirred it around!
We sometimes like left overs and Luke likes to take them to work sometimes so I decided to add two soup mixes and not quite double the water amount to boost the flavors. It turned out really good, and once again a lot of variations you could add in! 

 I took some more pumpkins to my shop uptown ... love making these! They are so cute!
I do have a couple left in my etsy shop, and I do have a discount code of 20% out :) :)
I've been giving them to my friends and family as little gifts just because :)

 Santa is popping in my etsy shop too!

Hope you have a great rest of the day!! Hubby and I are going to rake (MANY) leaves! :)
