Coconut Milk Mango Hypnosis

Spring.

It feels like years away in Chi-town in March.

Woke up to a dusting of snow this morning which, for it's own good, melted right away.

My friend Alyce defiantly wore a gorgeous mint green spring coat on Sunday even though it was a bitterly cold day, and I rallied;

I'll burn my favorite spring candle even though snow touched down today.

Chicago, you can't brainwash us.

We know it's March, and March is spring.

The coconut milk mango candle has been sitting on my night stand, brand new and waiting for spring.

It's on sale at Anthropologie for $10 right now, so hurry hurry!

I'm off on Mondays so I lit this gorgeous spring scent today, did two loads of laundry, finished two books (this one and this one), had two cups of green tea with honey, and took an (almost) two hour nap. 

I was so pleased with myself until it hit me with an awful panic-- and entirely too late-- that I completely forgot about a mandatory meeting today at work.

Awful.

Apparently coconut milk mango hypnotized me. 

I rarely allow myself a day of such peace, and then this.

Lest we be dismayed, let's remember that spring really is coming, and we won't need to hypnotize ourselves any longer some day soon.

And lest we be dismayed, this signature spring candle is on sale right now.

This is a beautiful scent for a bedroom, my favorite place to burn it.
