Weekend update 5-26-08
Hello Candle Breeze fans!
Writing today with Ocean Mist filling my office while “List of Demands” by Robyn is playing on my Aroma Radio mix. As I am writing it is pouring rain and Ocean Mist is making it possible for me to carry on. Funny how an aroma can change your mood.
A Happy Birthday shout out to Carol R. who turned 44 over the weekend. “Don’t look a day over 34 girl!”
The new Candle Breeze tv commericials are now in the can and need to decide which to use. Spent Friday morning shooting three different 30 second spots and two 60 second spots at the “Talking Pictures Studio with Tony Toscano. Tony’s new show is now on the WB Network with over 300 syndicated stations and we’re so happy for Tony and Candle Breeze of course. Candle Breeze will be the lead advertiser into his show beginning June 1st. Tony directed the commercial spots and we had a difference of creative expression on who was to say what and when. I wanted more of Tony and less of me when describing Candle Breeze. Tony has a loyal following and his viewers trust Tony in his movie picks and advice. Tony is such a huge fan of Candle Breeze and its effectiveness. His Hollywood guests that he interviews always comment on how wonderful his studio smells. I feel that the viewers would much rather hear about Candle Breeze from Tony than me. After further review of the commerical takes I strongly suggest that we use the Tony only scripts.
By the comments I received after the long weekend seems that many of you had Aroma Radio mix suggestions playing at your parties. Christine from Santa Barbara wrote me and took the Aroma Radio mix to 2 different BBQ’s. She writes, “Deno, I’m so pleased with my CandleAire but I have to tell you your Aroma Radio was so well received at 2 BBQ parties that I turned everyone on to this past weekend. Thanks for replying to my email and providing me with 18 of the grooviest tracks that were non stop groove. Your Morphine and US3 suggestions were right on when it comes to moving a party”.
So you all know, I recommended ‘Honey White” and Top Floor Bottom Buzzer” by Morphine, “Flip Fantasia” & “Come’on Everybody” by US3. I can imagine everyone groovin’ to these really cool tunes. Wish I could have been there!
Celebrated Diana’s B-day Saturday night with 30 or so good friends and as warning in a prior blog we had copious amounts of ouzo as the toast shot of choice. Lucky for me I only live about 3 blocks from the party and it only took me 10 minutes to walk home.
Walked back the following morning to get my car and meet everyone for a Golf Tournament. Most of us met for breakfast before the tourney and the hostess at the resturant knew exactly which group in the back that I was looking for when I walked in. Seems we must of all had that same ouzo hangover look. Tami was my golf partner this weekend and we had more laughs than good shots and believe me we had a lot of bad shots. Tami went birdie birdie for the first time in her golfing career and celebrated with a big old nasty cigar. Tami is a huge fashion statement when it comes to golf attire. Tami palyed in a cowboy hat the entire round which was a first for me. As Tami said “if a cowboy hat can make Dwight Yoakam look sexy can you imagine what it can do for me”. I’m now a big beleiver in it’s not how good you play but it’s how good you look on the golf course. I think it was Franando Lamas who said, “it’s better to look good than to feel good darling”.
Hang on everyone! I know I told you the “Juicy Peach Cand-O will be available soon. This Friday they will be available on the net so hang on just a little longer. Root Beer Float will be ready for Father’s Day and expect a huge run on this Cand-O fragrance by the amount of emails and blog comments begging for it. Thanks to all who have made the “deal of the day” on the web site a big success. Look for fantastic Father’s Day gift deal of the day specials in the next few weeks.
I’ll check in later this week to update.
Cheers…
