Candles and Wine
After one of the many long, hard stressful days that just really kick my butt, I can’t wait to get home and kick off my shoes, take my bra off and open a nice bottle of wine, then I turn on some good music and light a couple of candles. That is the recipe for my “feel good.” I’m not that picky about wine – there’s a great selection of reds and whites for under $15 a bottle. I buy a variety of wines and try to keep them on hand. Sometimes I just grab a bottle without even looking at the label until it is open.
The candle is a different story. I like to buy fragrance candles and have all different sizes and fragrances. Sometimes I splurge and buy the expensive ones, but often I’m happy with just a little votive that I pick up at Target. My favorite is called, Angel Whispers, by Glade.
If I can squeeze in a nice hot bubble bath into the mix I can soak my troubles all away, at least for the moment.
