Princess Glah-Day

The Polka-dot Princess has a new nickname...Princess Gladé (pronounced "glah-day"). Upon returning from a recent shopping trip, I came home to a very fresh, sweet smelling home. As it turns out, our garbage disposer....I mean, dog....ate 2 of my new candles! After weeks of a nice, destruction-free home, my prep work of making the house puppy friendly (done before leaving the house) became somewhat laxed. I mistakenly left a plastic bag which, inside were some newly purchased Glade candles, atop the counter, in easy reach of our 70 lb mutt. As her predecessors have done, she ate not only the candle and the wick but she also ate parts of the glass container! Luckily for her, I think they were small enough pieces that it didn't harm her intestinal tract! Luckily for me, those candles were FREE thanks to my coupon addiction and I still have about a dozen left!
