You take your time and work your magick. We'll just be sittin' on the couch in our pjs, watchin' the tube, maybe havin' a scotch.

Um, yes! I haven't drank this much in years. Strange days we're living in.

This is all very exciting. I don't mind the delay, it gives something to look forward to. Stay well, PM!

This is much better than reading the news.

@greenappletart Dried plant materials don't affect the shelf life of oils. I have ritual oils (not LP) in fractionated coconut oil base with dried plant materials in them from 2014 that are still good. I'm sure DPG holds up much better. 

  River Newt is a handsome boy.   A beautiful collection and I get to learn about a new thing, this is a win-win. 

It is ok. I try not to mix complex blends as unintended results can occur. Next time I stick with Pure Sugar if I must spray something on top, lol.

Angelic, you are not bogging anything down. Love to hear your results.

 

Ok, well I made a mistake w/ Cougar when I was visiting my tribe this holiday. I had on LP Evanescence w/ the Bang in it all day. The evening came and I though "spray some Cougar, because we're getting ready to play." I did not get the intended effect, lol. To preface, our gf was feeling out of sorts, so the mood was a bit off. Anyway, I noticed the bf got a little grumpy. Could've been overload, could've been those two were out of sorts. I think I will try it on it's own or w/ just cops, next time. 

I like Cougar or Copulins on their own, for first dates. Yes, inquiring minds want to know!

Sadly, my cat Jon Snow does not like LP Pink. When I have it on my wrists, he flinches like I'm going to hit him when I reach out to pet him! So awful. It's going on my trade page because I cannot handle any variety of shunning from a cat. 

Poor Jon Snow. How does he react to Red? In my experience cats like LP Red. 

Tried it on a guy friend and it went really sweet on him. He didn't care for it. On my lady friend, it stayed earthier/woodier. Really interesting that it stayed earthier on us and went super sweet on him.

No deal Beccah! My point is that I love it so much I don’t know what to do with myself.

 Yes, I love this one too. For some reason, I keep layering LP Red with it. Very interesting. 

I actually had this and a sample of the Sand box next to each other and they have a very similar feel to them. I put them both in a bag I'm putting together, for my friend & her boyfriend, because they were both nice boy smells to me. 

Blud, Weenie Pump, LP Samhain, Honeyed Pumpkin

I couldn't pass this one up, it is autumnal & earthy. I love fig in perfumes. 

 I bought a full bottle because it smells like delicious pumpkin pie & hopefully Mr. Right Now will be begging for a slice of my pie when I have it on. 😂

I love Blud. I thought about getting a virgin bottle, feeling pessimistic & down in the dumps over being single. But then I thought Carpe Diem! Get it with the Sexpionage, maybe I'll find a new love before the end of this decade. If not, Blud will age beautifully. Or maybe I'll just wear it out in public like a sassy boss b**ch. Either way.  

I will buy Tyvey's share.  Honeyed Pumpkin is a year round pumpkin for me. It kind of reminds me of Marcy's Wheat Siren. Idk why? Maybe the type of honey? It's so lovely though.

10:31 is right on time for a ‘Weenie binge! It’s once again the only time of year where getting your sugar rush on is not only acceptable, but required! In our grand tradition of toothsome Halloween delights we present another delicious fragrance to provide guilt-free indulgence...fairy floss swirls of blue raspberry and mulberry layered with multiple types of yummy vanilla and buttercream-frosted pumpkin cake, plus a baker’s delight of gingerbread and pound cake topped with a drizzle of maple, all mingling with smooth base notes of sweet wood and teak. And we’re adding to the scrumptious fun with a dose of our exclusive MAGNET pheromone blend, our man magnet combo of Alpha-Androstenol and a whopping dose of EoW Copulins! Mood elevating, popularity enhancing and sexually attracting!

 

“Ghastly greetings to all you ghouls and goblins, haints and haunts, monsters menacing the murky depths of All Hallows Eve! That’s right, it’s our absolute favorite holiday once more and this year we’ve got a very special offering at the All-Night Bakery...calling all creatures to creep in and chomp on a new spooktacular treat!

My girlfriend, she goes wild for vintage and antique and all that stuff.  Like the house her family had inhabited for generations. She inherited it from her grandparents and was all too happy to take possession of it immediately.

 

What she thought was fascinating I thought was...decrepit.

 

Not that it was falling down or anything but the weight of everything in it, it felt like a presence.  Like the things owned the house, not us.  I felt overwhelmed by the sheer volume of possessions.  And so we just fitted ourselves into the house along with everything else, it was so weird.  I had the sense of feeling like I really didn’t live there, I was just staying there for some reason.  I’d wake up in the middle of the night, totally disoriented. Where am I, again?

 

Worse yet, I’d begun to have dreams about the house, but I didn’t recognize anyone in those dreams.

 

I’d find myself, sitting among all the china and silver at dinner, or in the parlour with the antimacassars and doilies, lots of heavy carved furniture, dust and time...it felt like time-traveling every time I walked through the door.  But I did it for love.  

 

Even though I felt like she was forgetting about me.  Forgetting I lived here too.

 

One day we finally found the key to the hallway which led up to the attic.  I wasn’t as creeped out by the attic, or at least so I thought. The basement was dark and vast and who the hell knew what all was down there - so much stuff.  We rummaged through it and she found a coffeecan full of keys on one of the shelves. Eventually one of those keys fit into the lock of a door on the third floor which revealed a very steep and narrow set of wooden stairs.

 

“Ah ha!” she cried, triumphant.  “Grandma Tansy’s dolls are up there!”

 

Antique toys, sure, they could be worth a lot of money on the collector’s market.  I gamely put on some ratty jeans and an old t-shirt, a dust mask, and followed her up those stairs to the very top of the house.

 

Where there was no dust at all.

 

These kids, in every generation they were spoiled with absolutely beautiful toys: wooden blocks and rocking horses, detailed metal cars and aeroplanes, stuffed bears and velveteen rabbits, and the dolls...so many dolls they could have inhabited their very own neighborhood.

 

Their glass eyes dispassionate and just the faintest of smiles upon painted porcelain lips.

 

But she was looking for the doll in her grandmother’s image.  She showed me a photo of the two of them: Tansy and Little Tansy, dated 1910.  They had identical expressions. I think old photos are fascinating but also chilling, the people in them long-dead, consigned to a past which is difficult to imagine even as the record of it is available to view.

 

But Tansy seemed to look beyond the Daguerreotype to us, now, viewing her severe form, with her dark hair piled high, in starched white linen and lace.  It was eerie, like she was telling us I see you.  And I don’t think she approved at all.  My girl, she was enthralled with all the photos, looking through them night after night, maybe trying to imagine what life was like in this house, all those years ago.

 

The dolls knew, of course, but would be unlikely to say.

 

An old house creaks and groans and sighs but some nights there are other sounds.

 

Up in the attic.

 

She can’t hear them, I know, or she’s just not listening.  In bed, every night, she’s looking through photos, so many photos.  Of people we will never know but she feels she does, somehow, allowed these posed glimpses in stark black-and-white.

 

Grandma Tansy is watching us with many eyes from many moments.  We’re sleeping in what was once her bedroom.

 

She’s in my dreams and she always asks Who are you?

 

I’ve tried asking what I believe are reasonable questions.

 

Like, “Why was there no dust in the attic?”

 

And, “Are we ever going to redecorate and make this place ours?”

 

Because it’s not.  I am reminded of that in every moment.

 

She’s disappointed that she couldn’t find Little Tansy, but I did find her, or maybe she found me.  Down in the basement, peeking out from behind a pile of broken toys in a wooden crate. I saw those glittering avid glass eyes and swallowed hard, my breath released in a gasp of recognition.  But she didn’t see, didn’t hear the click of those eyes opening as we looked around at all the junk down there.  The weight of the house above us, a palpable pressure.

 

I don’t want to tell her.  And I feel like I won’t have to.  One night I’m going to wake up and she’ll be there at the foot of the bed, watching us sleep.

 

And of all those keys, wouldn’t you know we can’t find one for the basement door?
