The scented candles

Sand and Fog make the second-best scented candles. Honey & Tabacco, Winter Pines, Cinnamon Spice, Sandalwood: I’ve found their fragrances a delight. Most of the candles cover the stuffiness of closed windows and get rid of the wet-dog stench.

When the wicks are all burned off, for a good week or so, I can still enjoy the fragrance if the candles are uncovered. After that week, I have no use for the candles. They aren’t refillable like the best scented candles are.

During this round of death cleaning, I’m going to thank the candles for entertaining my olfactory sense and dispose of them. That’s six fewer items the Mourners need to worry about. I’ll try to only bring a new candle in when the old one is burned out. I don’t need to collect all the scents all in one go.

How many rooms do you burn candles in when the electricity is still up and running?
