So, yesturday a friend phoned my Mom to say she had something for me. It was good timing as we had made soup yesturday and got some ready for her. So, my Mom walked down to her house and when she came back she was carrying a huge bag which was clearly very heavy. What was in there I could not imagine, so I was keen and eager to look inside and find out.
When we opened the bag we found that it was half full of candles.
My friend knows that I like candles and when she saw them she knew that I would like them. She would not take any money for them either.
There was a whole mixture of tealights and pillar candles and even some Christmas ones. There were also three red Christmas candle sticks, with candles to fit. They are so pretty.
I am very lucky.

You were really lucky! Congrats... That's a really nice gift.
I like candles and usually buy the small candles in a jar. My favorite ones are the black cherry candles. I put a large glass bowl on my dresser in my bedroom, set a smaller glass bowl upside down inside the large glass bowl and set one of the candles on top of the second bowl and light it. It doesn't matter if I fall asleep, there's no way the flame can reach anything else to start a fire.

That's a lovely gift. I'm not that fond of candles but I know lots of people are.
