My Favorite Things

If Oprah can have her favorite things, I can too! This is a list of my favorite places to shop, favorite
recipes, favorite hints and tips, and a whole lot more. I’ll be adding
items from time to time, so check back often and see what new
‘favorites’ I’ve discovered!

Wisteria:
www.wisteria.com.
Fabulous!! A catalog of antiques and unique decorative items for the
home and garden collected by the company's owners from all over the
world. Shop online, by phone, or if you live in the Dallas, Texas area,
you can visit their warehouse outlet. Sign up online to receive their
catalog.

Have you ever tried to remove candles from
glass containers after they’ve been burned for several hours and the wax
has solidified? Believe me, it isn’t easy, as the melted wax assumes the shape of the container as it hardens. I ran into this
problem when helping to decorate for my niece’s wedding, and I
discovered that if you place a small amount of water in the base of the
glass candle holder prior to lighting the candle, the candle will slide
right out after use. You can also spray a light coating of Pam or other
cooking spray and receive the same results.

If you're looking for a bargain, check out
www.hot-deals.org and
www.slickdeals.net. Both
sites are updated throughout the day with listings of current deals.
And if you haven't discovered
www.craigslist.com, you are truly missing out! It's similar to
the classified section of a newspaper, and the listings are by city,
which makes finding items within driving distance super easy. You
can list things for sale, too, and unlike ebay, there are no fees!
