Essential Oils

[Guest guest]

Hello to everyone.

 

Ever been to a party & " accidentally "

eavesdropped on an interesting conversation? Or

overheard the discussion at the next booth in a

restaurant?

 

I'm kind of feeling left out of the loop and I'm

wondering who you are talking about without

talking about " him/them " directly. Please share

information if a supplier should be avoided in

your opinion (and why). Or please take this

conversation private.

 

Thanks.

Gail

>So, again, thank you, Anya, for your post. Have a good weekend.
