The company went out of the retail business, but I can still find it online. I think of it as my signature because it is not common. I want my granddaughters to catch a whiff and think of Nana. I also dislike those people who leave a trail of scent behind them...it's like being assaulted by smell.#1Nanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04214011945298439939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6076673433792968099.post-16792745366897335432015-01-29T06:58:39.087-08:002015-01-29T06:58:39.087-08:00I have gone places (like the Symphony) where the p...I have gone places (like the Symphony) where the person next to me is so heavily scented that I almost had to leave. So I would agree that it would be best to wear nothing than wear some of those heavy scents. My daughter wears a lotion that is light and clean... some people have commented on it, but I don't remember the name.Rianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09472421271620543536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6076673433792968099.post-51577892046117684252015-01-29T06:55:54.391-08:002015-01-29T06:55:54.391-08:00Thanks, Eileen.

Sometimes when I'm working with chocolate, the scent gets on my fingers and I think "this is a great scent".... kind of like walking into Starbucks and smelling coffee and chocolate.Rianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09472421271620543536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6076673433792968099.post-88034638475266560572015-01-29T06:53:22.756-08:002015-01-29T06:53:22.756-08:00I really do did to get back to Yoga.

And while I *used* to get up at 5 am when I was working, don't feel I should have to do that anymore. But if they go back to giving it at a reasonable time, I will consider it.Rianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09472421271620543536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6076673433792968099.post-76832853945875100262015-01-29T05:38:15.469-08:002015-01-29T05:38:15.469-08:00I'm glad that fall wasn't worse.

None of the men around me would have a clue. I don't wear anything, since it would be wasted on me (can't smell), and sometimes I do miss wearing a lightly scented body lotion (never was a perfume person).<br /><br />I'm sure the doggie quilt will be much appreciated, both by the dog and your friend.<br /><br />Good luck with the pottery!
