Crazy for Cranberry

Ann’s holiday Lampe Berger fragrances are so good they deserve a Thanksgiving post.  Keep your home free of unpleasant odors…Lampe Berger removes them and leaves its wonderful fragrance instead.  The nostalgic scents of a beloved holiday are a great way to enjoy it with your family.  Try Lampe Berger from Ann’s (click here for more about how it works).

And now for cranberries:

Most Americans today are familiar with cranberries served at  Thanksgiving dinner.    They’re grown in North America and Canada in bogs on evergreen shrubs related to the blueberry.  Native Americans and early English settlers used them for medicinal purposes.    Buy these at your grocery store.

Next week, when Americans stuff ourselves in the spirit of thankfulness, it’s the cranberries that we relish most (sorry for the pun) because they taste so good with a turkey sandwich the day after.  Make this at home for your TG dinner.

 But the Cranberry we’re crazy about is  Ann’s NEW Cranberry Lampe Berger fragrance, just in time for the big holiday!   It smells like your mother is cooking Thanksgiving Dinner and you can’t wait to eat.     Buy it now at Ann’s! 

Ann’s new Lampe Berger fragrance is Cranberry, just in time for Thanksgiving! $19.95 for half liter bottle.

Something else to try:  mix Lampe Berger’s Orange Cinnamon with new Cranberry!   It will remind you of Mom’s cranberry sauce recipe made with oranges and vanilla bean to add sweetness.  And you can “taste” as much as you want because Lampe Berger HAS NO CALORIES!  So indulge.  

So don’t serve Thanksgiving without a visit to Ann’s!   Tell us… how do you like your cranberry?

Polynesian Dreams

Welcome to the islands!  Here’s where we’re going today:  (Click on map to enlarge in your browser)

Polynesian Islands

Our series of imaginary travel via Lampe Berger’s new fragrances would not be complete without a luau.  In Tahiti.  Or Bora-Bora.  Or any lovely, beach-y spot in Polynesia.  Our fragrance for this trip is Polynesian Dreams, and there are some do’s and don’ts to take note of as you prepare:

DON’T overdress.  While enthusiasm is commendable, this outfit screams “tourist”:

 

DO take your wardrobe cues from the natives:

 

DO stay in a nice hotel:

Preferably one with friendly, welcoming staff:

DON’T forget to pack at least one pair of nice shoes:

 

And finally, DON’T overpay.  Your trip should cost you $19.95 per bottle of Lampe Berger’s new Polynesian Dreams, available now at Ann’s.  One little bottle to pour into your Lampe will fill your house with the lovely fragrance of sunflowers, sun-ripened fruit, cocoa oil, vanilla and almonds.  

DON’T forget to come buy some at Ann’s!  Bon Voyage!

Journey to Bahia

Let’s take a little trip.  South.  Brazil.  Bahia, to be exact.  But don’t hop on a plane yet.  Air-travel is so unglamorous these days.  Come with me on an imaginary journey with a little help from Lampe Berger.

A new fragrance, Journey to Bahia, from Lampe Berger, takes you to tropical beaches on the Atlantic Coast of Brazil.  Bahia is one of the 26 states of Brazil, and one of the most outstanding for beaches and tropical vacations.  Capital city of Bahia is Salvador, the oldest colonial city of the New World.

“Bahia” is ancient Portuguese for “bay” and refers to the Bay of All Saints, first seen by Europeans in 1501.  Here’s what it looks like via satellite:  (click on the picture to enlarge it in your browser)

Here’s what the beaches look like:

 

 

 

Ready to go? Just come to Ann’s and pick up a bottle of Journey to Bahia fragrance from Lampe Berger. Take it home, pour some in your Lampe, light it and blow out the flame. As you experience the blend of caramel, coffee, amber, and vanilla, jasmine, and sandalwood, you’ll begin to relax and enjoy the vacation.

Now picture yourself here:

Journey to Bahia, via Ann’s Fine Gifts and Lampe Berger.  $19.95 a bottle.

Springs of Mekong

One of the new fragrances from Lampe Berger’s “Dreams of Exploration”  is Springs of Mekong.  The Mekong river originates in China’s Quinghi Province and flows 4,909 km through Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia.  The fragrance blends the cultures of Southeast Asia by way of flowers and plants, so let’s look at what’s in Springs of Mekong.

Lotus flower

Cool, shady, mysterious bamboo

Cool, shady, mysterious bamboo

Shiso leaves, from ancient times used to lend the flavor of aniseed

Fresh, clean, crisp cucumber

Regal White Cedar

Bamboo Iris, an Asian variety

Mentha Longifolia (Mint)

All of this floral beauty comes in a bottle for $19.95, expertly blended to relax you as if you were on a lazy boat drifting down the Mekong River, carrying you somewhere elegant for dinner.    Try Springs of Mekong from Lampe Berger.  Available now at Ann’s.  Let us know how you enjoyed your experience.

Excursion to Kenya

“I had a farm in Africa.” 

So begins Isak Dinesen’s “Out of Africa”.  But no one said it better than Meryl Streep in the movie!  Robert Redford as Denys Finch-Hatton and Streep as Baroness von Blixen-Finecke brought Kenya in the 1920′s to the big screen.   John Barry’s unforgettable music score of soaring strings literally takes you up in a plane as you soar over the African landscape.   (Click here to hear it!)   If you haven’t read the book or seen the movie, whyever not???

You know what you have to do.  But before you click on Netflix, set the mood. 

You’ll have to drive to Ann’s and pick up a bottle or two of Lampe Berger’s new Excursion to Kenya.   Pour some into your Lampe Berger, light the wick, and blow out the flame.  Now your journey can begin.  (i.e., Now you’re ready for movie night.)

 

Excursion to Kenya is a combination of rare spices, wild flowers and rich precious woods reminicent of colonial Africa in the days of big game hunters.   You can actually smell the coffee on the plantation and the jasmine blooming in the highlands of the Ngong Hills.  It’s a wonderful journey, and you can make it comfortably in your favorite chair, right there at home in front of your plasma TV.

So what are you waiting for?  Africa calls!   Your Excursion to Kenya begins as soon as you visit Ann’s and pick up a bottle.  $19.95. 

Read it.  Watch it.  Burn it.  And you too will say,

“Here I am, where I ought to be.”   (Isak Dinesen, Out of Africa
