By Candlelight

One of my favorite little rituals each evening is scurrying around the apartment and lighting nearly every candle in the place.  No matter the time of year, weeknight or weekend, I light my candles and watch the day wind down.  

Whether coupled with Sunday Night Football or Debussy and a glass of Pinot Noir, the candles are nearly always flickering in our kitchen and living room.

That soft, warm candlelight just soothes me.  With the lights down low and the candles lit, I cannot help but feel a change in my mood.
