an important warning AND fabulousness

So the other day I was at Walmart (bleckkk) in the automotive section with my dearest husband looking for another ice scraper for his car, when the car fresheners caught my eye. Perfect! They are one of those things that I always think to myself that Zelda (my car) really needs, but the thought never crosses my mind when I am actually at a store. So she goes on smelling like nothing special, unless you are my friend Whitney who thinks she smells like "Vegas". But I'm not sure if that is a good thing or not... but anyway, back to the story. I'm looking over the selection, and this little guy speaks to me:
I mean, perfect right?! It IS Christmastime after all! And the smell of Christmas trees is just fabulous. Our apartment smells awesome thanks to our real tree, and I was sure my car would smell just like that with the addition of this bad boy.

NOT.

My car smells like soap. Imitation "pine" flavored soap, and the smell refuses to leave. I guess I'm just spoiled since I smell the real deal every day. So, unless you are a fan of pine flavored (is flavored the right word, probably scented, but I like flavored better) soap, I would suggest keeping far far away from this little tree.

Well, on a more fabulous note, today I entered this legit giveaway (in addition to the other giveaway) over at The Daybook for a $50 gift card at Ruche. Oh my goodness, YES. If you are not trying to study for finals (and even if you are...I was) you should spend, like, 3 hours looking over their stuff, and Sydney's blog (The Daybook, of course). Both are seriously fan-freakin-tastic. You will thank me. All two of you that read this. :)

And with that, I am going back to writing a book report on a children's book for my COLLEGE Algebra class. (Come on teach, really?)

  1. I won a scarf from Ruche last Christmas. I LOVE that store! Cute stuff, good prices,... just wish I had a little more extra money to spend there. Maybe someday... I will have to check out that giveaway. Thanks!
