He surprised me this morning with his new toy.  You know you’re married to a geek when…
The problem (there was a problem, dear? Okay, I suppose…) is solved. There will be no fire hazard when we put out the glass Noel tea-light holders this upcoming season (but no, I’m not digging out the Christmas boxes from the garage yet for their photo op) –just blow the light out.
Now blow on it again (see those three handy little holes at the top, dear?) for it to come back on.
Who *thinks* of these things! Delightful creativity and it doesn’t even involve yarn or musical instruments!

Those would be perfect for a home with marauding pets or small children (same problem, really).

Comment by Barbara-Kay 11.14.09 @ 4:20 pmI have to admit, my first reaction was, you have GOT to be kidding! My second was that I could see how they could actually make sense.

Comment by Joansie 11.14.09 @ 9:07 pmI got some similar ones for Os last year, and found a wax cylinder for the tea lights to sit in top of. The cylinder has slow color changes. We love it :-}
Comment by Diana Troldahl 11.14.09 @ 9:20 pmNope, no new phone yet, but we will… Microsoft now has “saved” 2/3 of my data, when, before I hadn’t actually lost any on my Sidekick, just Richard had… (Typing from home on a computer that doesn’t know about Daylight Savings.)
Comment by AlisonH 11.15.09 @ 12:04 amYes, but are they scented?
Comment by LynnM 11.15.09 @ 2:30 amToo cute!
Comment by TripletMom 11.15.09 @ 10:03 amOoooo…I gotta get me some of those! I haven’t been able to have candles since we adopted a cat who seems to think, “Oooo…shiny” when she sees flame and has been rescued one too many times from incinerating a paw with the bad luck to be attached to such a silly cat. Sigh….

Comment by Tracy 11.16.09 @ 9:53 amOh, please please don’t let my daughter find out about those! For the moment she’s happy enough with the flickery little tea lights that have a switch on the bottom. But those look far far more fun. 🙂
