crazy candles

Posted on January 28, 2010April 13, 2016 by Andi

A while back we had a birthday celebration for Chuck's sister. She requested a DQ cake. These are my favorite, too. Can you see that there are tiny leaf shaped candies on the cake?! So cute!

Chuck and I were out running errands and he made an impulse purchase (something he never does). They were these colorful candles.

The best part about them is what they do when you light them….their flames are the same color as the candles. They are the coolest thing we have ever seen!

If you happen to be near a Bed Bath & Beyond you should swing in and see if you can find some of these for your next birthday celebration.

I recently finished this book and really enjoyed it. I find that I really like books by this author. The only downside is that I feel like they are a bit depressing. I think the author wants you to get sucked in and get connected to the characters and then shock the crap out of you. She has succeeded in this book as well as in “My Sister's Keeper”.

Basically, it was a really good book and I had a hard time putting it down. She has a way of getting you sucked in from the beginning. If you want some good reads, check out Jodi Piccoult!
