from deep in the heart

Candles and candlelight are both an indulgence and a necessity. Lighting candles at the table every night; it’s amazing how a bit of candlelight can elevate even the simplest of meals. My first experience dining by candlelight was in Williamsburg, Virginia where candles were the only source of light at the King’s Arms Tavern. Even now, on this rainy summer morning there are candles burning here in the library where I am writing.
