Where I burn candles in my home...

Every morning I light the candles. Here is the most recent spot. It's of carved stone from India and is like a roadside shrine. It reminds me of a tiny fireplace. I light this for my friend and neighbour Kim who is travelling to Moscow, Rome and Istanbul for six weeks. I light this for the celebration and safety of her journey:
This is the candle I light in celebration of my creative spirit and my home:
And this candle gets lit in celebration of things spiritual. I have a variety of icons from a mix of belief systems and I kind of mix and match as it were. The wall shelf unit is old and is from India:
Here is a close up of the gang. They are all here. Hail! Hail!
There is music to listen to whilst fishing for one's supper:
And here is me and Kimmie laughing over old times. Note that we have a pet spidey with very red eyes. Halloween is coming and that is spidey's favorite time:
So my friend, Kim: Travel safe, travel smart, let your hair down and we'll see you when you get back. Meanwhile I'm keeping your garden in good shape! *smiles* Norma
