There is a spotlight on Bergamot essential oil in this week's Substack.

Bergamot essential oil comes from the rind of the citrus bergamia fruit, which is a hybrid of a lemon and a sour orange.

21/09/26~ Rainy Walks.

I'm pleased the sun has returned but at the beginning of last week it was a bit soggy. Little Mollie wasn't feeling well last week but is much better now thankfully, she likes giving us a heart attack once in a while! ###

20/09/26~ Cherry 🍒

I managed to fit in a dog walk and yoga (Jon a swim) before heading to my parents for a picky tea for my sister's Birthday this afternoon. We've bought some Birthday cake back home with us 😋

I have Vanilla in my burner currently, I under poured this one (smaller than the ones I sell) so it became mine 🙂

A few pics I took at Waingroves Show last weekend. As you can see Mollie was thrilled about cuddles when she and Jon came to visit me 🤣

18/09/26~ Autumn Spice.

One thing I didn't think about with having a small business and, if I could I would totally out source, is the amount of chasing people up you have to do. I'm pretty sure I just email into a void the majority of the time 😕

17/09/26~ The daily sniff test.

I know my tealights burn three to four hours and I know my wax melts last four complete tealights but can I remember how many times I've burnt each one? Nope 🤦🏼‍♀️

17/09/26~ Daily walk snaps.

I thought we were going to get rained on yesterday's walk but luckily we didn't. The clouds looked pretty even if some of them were a bit angry looking ###
