How do you scent your home? What scent do you use?

Nykkee @Nykkee (2522) • Canada 28 Apr 08

I like to use incense and scent candles to scent my home primarily, but I also use air fresheners in the bathroom and the porch and I probably have a plug-in or two around the house as well. I really like my home to have a nice...

shyviolet I am definitely a candle person. Predominantly Yankee Candle and For Every Body, I've found they just about all smell wonderful. The scent I use depends upon the time of year. Right now, I've switched to tropical and fruity scents for spring and summer, but...

Britney Spears

mom4kids @mom4kids (657) • Canada 27 Apr 08

Britney Spears on How I met your Mother I heard got them the highest ratings yet. I don't like her, and she was funny some of the time but I think anybody in her place could have done just as well or better. I heard on the radio...

shyviolet I didn't like her either, so needless to say, I'm not really excited about her being on another episode. I know the people behind the show are scrambling because it is one of the shows on CBS' list of shows it might not bring back next season. But I really...

Tired of Neopets?

tictac24 @tictac24 (19) • United States 12 Jan 08

Let's face it, neopets is going down the tubes, they don't care about their users anymore. All they want is profit, profit, profit. The focus on merchandise, NC Mall, premium, covering neopia with ads, etc. I've tried other pet...

nikkiwith @nikkiwith (1074) • Australia 9 Sep 07

Do you talk to your spouse when they are at work?

surveygrrl @surveygrrl (1270) • United States 23 Jul 07

Do you ever talk to each other when one or both are working? I normally call my husband once a day sometimes it ends up being twice and sometimes we don't get to talk because one of us is busy.

shyviolet My husband calls me every day during his lunch hour just to see how I'm doing and check in. His idea, not mine...but I love that he wants to talk to me in the middle of his day.

When was the last time you went to dinner or a movie with your spouse?

Is Harry a Horcrux?

Carmenn @Carmenn (23) • United States 14 Jul 07

I think that he is. But where are the other ones?

3 responses

shyviolet I don't think he is...because Voldemort didnt' expect the result that happened when he tried to kill Harry and when it did, he was too weak to do anything. It would seem nearly impossible for him to have made Harry a horcrux.

shyviolet My husband is 2 years younger than me. Obviously that close, there is no difference what so ever in the things we grew up around, so we have a very similar interest and are exactly alike.
