Best wishes to everyone for a wonderful 2011! Thanks NST for including SSS Incense Pure in your best of 2010 list! I’m glad people view it as a good value. These days it’s easy to get sticker shock when perfume shopping! And thanks again, Ines, for including SSS in your best of 2010 post too!…
I wanted to wish those who celebrate a happy holiday weekend. My brother and his family will be visiting; I’ve not seen them since Thanksgiving, so it’ll be nice to catch up. Spring has sprung here! The roses and pink jasmine are blooming, the sun is shining, green strawberries are starting to ripen, and birds…
