Years ago, I had an obsession with candles. Then I burned a hole in our end table and created a line of black soot on our new bedroom carpet (with a little help from a really cheap candle!). With the three strike rule, I decided to put my love of candles on hold. Unfortunately, my nose really loves warm, fuzzy, comforting scents so I couldn't hold out forever.
My slow reintroduction of candles started last year when Jan bought me a delightful Yankee candle. I lit it a few times, then put it away for fear of burning the house down (in my head - that was the next logical accident to occur). Well, this Christmas brought out all the candles so the holiday scents could permeate the house. And everyone loved them as much as I did. So much so, that Jeff found himself shopping in the Yankee Candle store looking for after Christmas bargains. I've taken a picture of our favorite scent...and words to live by. Be Thankful.
