Tip of the day:  All across America the bean pot is helping women get dinner on the table ....faster and easier than ever.  They can go in the oven, freezer, microwave and dishwasher.  Easy clean up.

The aroma of FALL:  Our temperature has become very cool of the evening.  I am not wanting to turn on the heat yet so of the evening I have been lighting my candles.  I enjoy the flicker of a candle so relaxing when I am tired or had a very full exciting day.  Have you tried the candles with a  wooden ember wick?  They have approximate burn time of 50 hours and they smell so good.

Tip of the day:  Aprons are making a come back.  Have you shopped lately and seen all the cute aprons available.  I like to go to yard sales and get the vintage aprons.  Those worn by ladies who loved to cook.  Tying  on an apron when preparing a meal is the first step to creating a comforting kitchen atmosphere.  Doing this simple act will prepare your heart and mind for what might be considered a burden into a blessing. Have a fall apron or favorite apron display it in your kitchen to remind you to tie it on.

The aroma of Fall:  Try plugging in a Fragrance Warmer.  It will disperse fragrance without the flame.   My favorite gel for the fall is the Warm Cinnamon Pumpkin.
