Cinfhen
Stephen Florida | Gabe Habash

Some midwinter pick me ups delivered by my brother and SIL 💕💕💕I have high hopes for tagged book, but @emilyhaldi just left a rather disappointing review😥I‘m still hoping I‘m #TeamBritt because it was her review which led me to order the book😉🙏🏻and then there‘s wrapping paper because apparently Israeli‘s find the premise wasteful🙄oh, candles!!! Because if it‘s not books or music then it‘s aroma therapy candles 💜

Cinfhen Planning on using tagged book for #pop19 #setAtUni 5y
Ruthiella Stephen Florida is an odd book for sure but well worth reading. You are going to want to talk to someone about it when you are done! 🧐 5y
Cinfhen I‘ll let u know when I‘m done @Ruthiella and we can discuss xx 5y

BarbaraBB Ah, I knew you wanted to read this book and have send it to you as a Christmas gift (it‘s taken ages again to reach Israël) ??‍♀️. Too bad! You can share it maybe and let‘s hope you‘ll like it in the first place ??? (edited) 5y
Cinfhen You‘re the sweetest @BarbaraBB 😘😘😘😘perfect excuse for me to host a #giveaway 5y
TrishB What no wrapping paper! You‘ll be inundated with it now from Litsy folk! 5y
Cinfhen I know!!! Certain things I still can‘t get over @TrishB Don‘t get me started on Qtips, Ziplock bags and solid white tuna 🙄🙄🙄 5y
alisiakae That wrapping paper is beautiful! 5y
Cinfhen It‘s actually spectacular in real life @4thhouseontheleft the color and quality is outstanding 🤗🤗 makes me SUPER HAPPY 😃 5y
TrishB 😂😂 love hearing about these things. Charlotte has already told me that I have to wrap her presents up in recyclable paper or just brown paper. Wrapping paper that doesn‘t scrunch is not recyclable apparently.... (edited) 5y
britt_brooke @Cinfhen I hope you‘re #teambritt too! 🤞🏻It‘s an outstanding character study. It‘s one of my favorites of the year and was recommended to me by @vivastory . 5y
emilyhaldi No qtips or ziploc bags either?!? I guess I knew about ziplocs bc Anne has that problem in London too. How do people live without these things?! And I really hope this book works out #teambritt for you 🤞🏻 I listened to most of it on audio and read some parts physical... but I‘m wondering if the audio listening has something to do with my dislike?? I have had bad luck with audios recently and I‘m starting to wonder if they just aren‘t for me!! 5y
Cinfhen I‘m curious about this book and still looking forward to reading it. And nope on Qtips, Ziplocks, dryer sheets, Pam Baking Spray, gel deodorant, solid white tuna, Bounty paper towels, Jumbo pasta shells and probably a hundred more things that I‘m forgetting @emilyhaldi 🙄😂😂😂#RealLife 5y
GlassAsDiamonds Oh lord I feel you!!! Here it‘s also the zip lock bags, cling wrap, baking paper, DRYER SHEETS, toilet paper (😱🤦🏻‍♀️😱 two years, still cannot use the hose but I have become a wizard at panic buying toilet paper), solid stick deodorant, anchovies, canned salmon .... the things you miss when you can‘t get them!!!! 😂😂😂😂 5y
Cinfhen Yes!!!! Cling wrap!!!!!! And I feel sorry for you regarding toilet paper ....THAT would be a deal breaker!!!!! @GlassAsDiamonds 5y
Reviewsbylola I have a serious candle problem rn. 5y
Reviewsbylola And too funny about the ziplock bags. @AnnieD always asks for us to get her some too. 5y
Reviewsbylola I‘m dying to know what things we don‘t have in the US that would drive foreigners nuts. But I also forgot about the no dryer thing. I have a pen pal from 3rd grade that lives in the UK and I think that‘s a big reason she didn‘t cloth diaper. NO WAY would I have done CD without a dryer, especially consider I had two in CD for a good year+. 5y
Cinfhen So I have one friend in Philly who is Israeli and whenever I come to visit she asks me to bring her salted & roasted watermelon seeds!!!! Yup....that‘s the one thing she misses most and can‘t find @Reviewsbylola Personally, I think they‘re nasty!!! 5y
Cinfhen Which are your favorite candles?? I love NEST but they are soooo freaking expensive ~ this new brand I just bought are really pretty but they don‘t have a strong enough scent ☹️ @Reviewsbylola 5y
Reviewsbylola I usually either buy at craft fairs or places like that or at Aldi. Aldi is so cheap and they often have nice candles! I will buy at B&BW too if they‘re having a sale. 5y
Cinfhen My neighborhood in Philly doesn‘t have Aldi but my SIL talks about Aldi all the time!!! @Reviewsbylola I‘m gonna ask her to pick me up a few candles and B&BW have the craziest sales!!! And their scents are really good 💜 5y
GlassAsDiamonds @Cinfhen yeah... I stock pile! At any given time, there‘s enough TP in this apartment to build a moderate sized igloo!!! (I‘m gonna need to break some WEIRD habits when we leave India!! 😂😂😂😂). 5y
GlassAsDiamonds @Reviewsbylola is Vegemite to anachronistic a thing? 😜 I found unsweetened breakfast cereals, hard core ground coffee beans (no drip, no filter - French press ♥️♥️♥️), Asian greens (BokChoi & choisum) and things like fish sauce, light soy, mirin etc hard to come by but I would note that was in Erie, PA. That said, the amazing abundance of decaf teas and DRYER SHEETS made me very very happy! 😊😊😊 5y
