mkpk Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Just a little thought for you all... About 6 or 7 years ago my mom bought my sister and I candles that looked liked a group of yellow lemons. I have moved 6 times in 5 yrs, (restuarant management both dh and me), and lost mine upon the way. A month ago, I was at my sister's house and went to do the dishes, and wouldn't you know it, she STILL had her lemon candle in her kitchen window! I did say something to her about how have you keep it this long?" She just said that she loves it and it is so nice. I thought that was so awesome. As much as I hate that mine was lost in so many moves, it was so cool seeing hers. It is weird how one candle candle can remind you of a specfiec point in time. I think my sis thought I was crazy for even remembering it, but she did and we laughed about how mom always buys us stuff that others think is just silly...notice what is kept and remembered. Just thought I share and smile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnjieBurdett Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Awww thats a lovely story! Glad it brought back such nice memories. For me it's usually certain smells that brings back memories.Maybe you should get a mould made of your sisters candle and make yourself another one LOL.Anjie,x.

erinmfritz Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 It is amazing how things like that touch your heart so much. That's what I like about working with the scents, it brings back memories for people, like grandma's cooking or dad's cologne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
