21 Wood Wick Candles That’ll Add Some Crackle To Any Room Without A Fireplace

Published

on

Promising review: “I’ve loved/used lavender candles for 30 years and this is now my favorite. Why? It’s not a single-note lavender — it’s a terrific blend that includes lemon, bergamot, and cedar. None of the scents are overwhelming, so the blend is both layered and subtle! Sometimes blends have a floral scent that is too strong for me, but this lavender blend does *not*. It’s mellow, calming, and I really like the coconut wax, and I’m crazy about the wood wick. I love how it crackles slightly — it makes me super happy and cozy. I trim the wood wick every time before I light it, and I’ve *never* had an issue with a sparky flame. Thanks Whiff folks for an excellent candle — I’ll be ordering more!” —Erika Rae

RELATIONSHIP RED FLAG: “Embarrassing me in public by trying to argue in an obnoxious way.”

“I met an older married couple like this today. At first, I thought she was the toxic one and he was the pushover, but nope. They were BOTH toxic!

They clearly hated each other with commitment and passion. I just took a step back, put my game face on, and let these two absolute gunslingers go at each others throats in public.”

Parents Who Had Kids Later In Life Reveal The Joys And Challenges Of Raising Them At An “Older” Age

“I had my first baby at 33 through IVF, and my husband was 41. This was after five years of trying on our own. Then we unexpectedly got pregnant on our own two more times, and I had babies at ages 35 and 37. We never intended to have a baby at ages 37 and 45, but here we are, and we couldn’t imagine our lives without her. But I think the mix of three pregnancies in four years and my age destroyed my SI joint and hips. I think if I were younger, it wouldn’t have been so bad.”

“With baby number three, I was in so much pain that I seriously wasn’t sure if I could make it. I felt like my legs were going to give out on me because of the pain and weakness brought on by SI joint dysfunction and SPD. I am better now, but still not at 100% two years postpartum. Also, man, we are tired. Looking back to all those late nights partying in my early 20s and getting up and going to work the next day like it was no big deal makes me realize how much of an advantage it is to have kids young. But we are more established in our careers, more mature, and have different priorities now. In a lot of ways, it makes it easier to have kids older. I’ve heard people talk about not wanting to have kids at an older age because they won’t be around as long, but my dad was 34 when I was born and died at age 46 from pancreatic cancer when I was only 12 years old, and my sister was 6, so who knows? Age isn’t everything. It’s about finding the right time for you. If I had gotten pregnant when we first started trying, I would have had a baby at 27, but I am glad it worked out the way it did.”
