An oxymoron (plural oxymorons or, more rarely, oxymora) is a figure of speech that combines two normally contradictory terms She wasn't calling you a Moron. She was basically saying you were contradicting yourself since you state you just started making candles and are ready to sell them. You are saying you are new to this. Have you done any testing? Have you gotten liability insurance in case something happens to some one or their home because of your candles? Have you gotten your business license and tax id#? There is a lot more to making a candle than pouring some scented wax into a container and sticking a wick in. I'm not trying to shoot you down but want to make sure you are really ready to sell.
