Candles?

I fell into candle making much the same as I do any other new endeavor. I like to learn how to make things that we use in our daily lives. We eat a lot of bread, so I learned how to bake. We like vegetables, so I tried to learn gardening. As it turns out, I am not a good gardener, but I did learn how to make great pickles and jams! We burn a lot of candles and I figured I could make our own cheaper and better, and if I sold enough to offset the cost of supplies and help supplement the costs of homeschooling, it would be a win-win situation. 

I’m just a normal guy. I like camping, fishing, hunting, football, etc. Like many other GenXers, I’m a bit of a prepper; not a fanatic, just an enthusiast. I do not expect the world to come crashing down any minute, but I’m always wondering “what if.” We (the world) do have a way of messing up a good thing. I do know it will all end one day just as God said, but that will be a welcome new beginning, and I guess you could say I am prepped for that by accepting Jesus as my Lord and Savior. 

That’s all I have to say right now. I just figured I’d explain a little how a super manly man such as myself gets into the things I do. 

Leah said I need to post pictures when I update the site, so here is a random picture of us at a Braves game.
