Yankee Candle Company Day!


Today we went to the Yankee Candle Company mega store, headquarters, "scenter" of the universe thingy in Deerfield, Massachusetts which is only 10 minutes away from Noho. it's been a few hours since we left this place and i still can smell candles. We walked around for three hours smelling candles ranging from "frosted pumpkin" to "sparkling angel" which begs the question, what do sparkling angels smell like? well, apparently they smell like apples, pine, berries and eucalyptus, go figure. the place was quite cool; it was covered with Christmas decorations.





















we all picked out some candles. ash got "pineapple citrus" and i got "macintosh & peach." Jennifer picked out a bunch, her favorite being "midnight cove" or something like that.


after the candle place we ate at the always reliable Haymarket Cafe. I've never been disappointed with the food from this place. here are some pics of us enjoying our tempe burgers and curry coconut rice ball soup(?).










now we're home and ash and Jennifer are taking naps while i post. Ash has a late night of essay writing in her future while Jennifer has a late night of cemetery wandering in hers and I'll probably watch a movie or something.

Two things that disturbed me about this post:
1. The title Yankee Candle Company Day was followed by an exclamation point (and yet you can't understand how people get excited over sports- you save your !'s for candles?!)
2. How far does Johnny have that "candle" up his nose which makes me suspect that that the Yankee Candle Co is really front for drugs & hence the ! in the first place.
Love you guys,
Auntie
