Well, here we are again!

Congratulations on hanging in there until the end, no matter how many blog posts you shared. It was good to see you and talk to you, and I hope you'll be back again in January.

A Reminder: Check Your Stats


Did you check your blog's stats yet? I sometimes forget to do it by the last day of the month and then those stats are completely irretrievable.

But I remembered this time.

Though I wish I'd more than 278 page views and 171 visitors, I'm also glad for everyone who did stop by!

And I found out that my 2 top blogs posts were Sacred Cosmic Cozy Warmth and Spiritual Sunday: Try this Exercise for Creating Peace. My fall blog posts did well, too.

How was your month?

Christmas Cookie Holiday Spray


I've gotten into the habit of giving you guys something at the end of the challenge.

And last night, I decided my living room needed some refreshing and I'd better refill my empty bottle of the sugar cookie spray I'd made. But I cheat, by using a fragrance oil from P & J.

They say those fragrance oils will kill you, but what a way to go!

However, I thought I'd give you a basic recipe and then, suggest the ratio of essential oils if you want a Christmas Cookie fragrance...

4 tablespoons of witch hazel
4 tablespoons of distilled water
15-30 drops of your favorite essential oil

You can either add your essential oils to an empty bottle and then add a blend of the witch hazel and distilled water, or mix all three in a measuring cup and then pour the whole blend into your glass bottle. Rub side to side between your hands to blend it all together.

Now, I added 30 drops of Sugar Cookie fragrance oil.

​You could add...

​15 drops of lemon
15 drops of vanilla absolute
5 drops of cardamom

So the whole recipe would be...

4 tablespoons of witch hazel
4 tablespoons of distilled water
​
15 drops of lemon
15 drops of vanilla absolute
5 drops of cardamom


Have a wonderful holiday season!

Love you guys!!

Oh, good! I'm excited for you to try it. I've been using Plant Therapy. I like that I can get them on Amazon, and I like them as a brand. If you decide to cheat, P & J is also on Amazon.

Congratulations to you too Jeanine! I love these challenges partly just to reconnect with my blogger friends. I forgot to check my stats also so I just checked and my top 2 blog posts were A Visit from an Angel and Quick and Easy Omelette. Thank you for the room freshener spray, Alex loves anything cookie dough so I can make her some spray!

Woot - we did it, Jeanine!
Congrats on completing the October challenge- i always enjoy your posts!
An artsy friend pulls out a Pumpkin pie blend that she loves this time of year - mmm - and I love my cinnamon spray (broom bristles, front door ...)
I checked my stats and my most popular app round post is Front Door!
This month's tops were on my JOURNEY learning ᏣᎳᎩ (tsa-la-gi), the BLOG ROLL share, and just before my REIKI CLASS!

I commented on this post but sadly it went elsewhere. It was nice getting to know you a little over the month-long challenge. I look forward to following along your blog in the future.
