When I first started "trying" to make candles my poor hubby couldn't understand why I was having sooooo much trouble making a good candle. He told me..."I made them all the time in elementary and Sunday School. Your just melt crayons with wax, pour it into a milk carton, stick in a wick and light it. What's the big deal?" Now, mind you...this was from the man who, after I spent an awful night with the "comode huggin" stomach flu said, "I'll bet if you took a dip in the pool, it would make you feel better." In fairness to him, this was after an hour and a half of tending our then four year old and six month old. Go figure.
