After finding out my flight was delayed a few months ago I decided to browse the shops in the new Jet Blue terminal at JFK. I found these candles made by Lafco that are intended to smell like various dream homes -the cutest idea (they have another line that smell like rooms in a home) - and I immediately spotted the Ski House candle (they also have Country House, Beach House, Towne House, Lake House and Penthouse) - the scent was amazing, it smelled just like a ski house! I loved the candle (and I am not a big candle person) and thought that it would make a great little gift for a friend until I saw that it was around $50 and thought that you had to be somewhat nuts (at least more nuts than I thought that I was) to spend $50 on a candle! I left the store and finally left the airport only to think about the candle and how much I loved the scent the entire time that I was away. So I did what any normal person would and ran right to the store to buy one as I got off the plane back in NY (of course I checked the prices online while I was away to see if they were less expensive elsewhere - actually, the Jet Blue Terminal was the least expensive retailer that I found if you happen to be in the terminal)! The candles are made from soy and supposedly last for over 90 hours (I wouldn't know because that would require me to burn it and I haven't been able to get myself to do that, it smells great anyway and what if I couldn't find another one??). Until I can afford a real ski house (or someone generously wishes to purchase one for me), this is the next best thing!
