South Korea apparently loves cheese but every “cheese-flavored” Korean thing I try leaves this Wisconsin boy incredibly unimpressed.

I bought some red candle tins to maybe use for Christmas candles but the coating on them is godawful so I’ll be sticking with matte black everything, thanks.

Bourbon Butterscotch Candle
Creamy butterscotch and oak barrel bourbon create a rich and smoky fragrance. I don't really know what else we can say about this one. If that sounds good to you, then buy it, I guess.

Cat destroyed my backdrop before I could get a real product photo so here’s what the reed diffusers look like on a random stack of shipping boxes instead.

A Grumpy email will be going out shortly with a picture of how much Piper has grown since the last one. If you want cat pictures (and a discount code) you should probably go sign up for the mailing list.

I was trying to do product photos for my new stuff and my cat sliced right down the middle of my backdrop with her claws. So… that’ll have to wait, I guess! At least I kind of got this one. grumpycandlecompany.com/products/bom...

PSA: During summer months, I do not ship on weekends, so most packages will go out on a Monday. I want to minimize the chance of your candles sitting in a hot warehouse somewhere for days on end.

Anyone ordering an odd number of candles will be getting a free sample of carpet freshener. Why only odd-numbered orders? Because my boxes fit even numbers of candles. A good reason, I know.
