The strawberry one smells divine!Mr. Bubble...

If you've been wondering where I've been and what I've been up to, there is no easy answer. Yes, I'm still here, but I'm going through a bit of a blogging transition.Do you ever feel like you've successfully completed all of your projects and just don't feel like starting a new one?
