When the leaves fall from the trees outside and the temperatures plummet, there is something that saves humanity in the autumn and winter months: candlelight. Yes, you heard right, these little flickering flames are the secret heroes in the dark season. While outside the sun shines as rarely as the boss on a Monday morning, inside we simply light a few candles to save ourselves from the harsh reality. Candlelight is a reliable companion in times of desolation. It lights up our living rooms and creates an atmosphere so romantic that even the toughest guys will eventually soften.
Yes, candlelight, this tiny flamethrower, has the power to transform even the most banal evening meal into a romantic dinner for two. It conjures up an aura of intimacy that makes hearts beat faster and seems to say: “Forget the stress of the day, the only thing that counts here is the here and now.” But that’s not all. Candlelight is also a guardian of our traditions. When the first Advent candles are lit, we feel like children again, eagerly waiting for the Christ child. The candlelight connects us with the festive traditions and puts us in the mood to celebrate the good old days. And what would winter be without its meditative effect? It almost seems as if it has hypnotizing powers that make us forget everyday life. The flames flicker, the world becomes blurry and we immerse ourselves in a world of relaxation.
The following finds also prove to you that this is the case. If you want to get in the mood, you can light a candle now. But please do us a favor and don’t burn down your apartment, okay?
#1: We don’t see a problem here
I was in the hot tub with my new bath pillow & Grey’s Anatomy for 2 hours. By candlelight & closed door. I’m softened but relaxed. Basically a squishy little jellyfish.

#3: Really, what’s the point of panic?!
I don’t know why everyone is so panicking about a winter without electricity. I imagine a cozy Netflix evening by candlelight.

#4: There are worse things
From what I hear about my vacuum cleaner, “eating nuts by candlelight” is probably not one of my core competencies.

#5: Very atmospheric
We sit contemplatively by candlelight.
And wait for the emergency electrician.
There is a quiet trickle in the freezer.
Hachz.

#6: This can take a while if he doesn’t find his Nubsi
Power failure. I go take out the trash and see craftsmen fiddling with the cables.
“Do you know where the sleeve goes?
“What kind of muff?”
“For the cable.”
“This cable doesn’t need a sleeve…”
…so now I’m getting used to living by candlelight and an open fire.

#7: Check and checkmate
Daughter: “The lamp in the bathroom is flickering and will soon break.”
Me: “And then we’ll shower by candlelight for three weeks until one of your parents finally changes the bulb.”
Father: “Or she changes the bulb herself.”
Daughter: “Or she changes house and parents!”

#14: Here’s how to do it
He can’t sleep, his head is so full, said the bully and I, that I don’t know how I can help.
Then it occurred to me that you should just do what you wanted as a child.
So now he bathed by candlelight and was given warm milk with honey.

“Oh, how beautiful this couple looks in the advertisement, sharing the oven cheese that I bought because of the advertisement by candlelight and red wine,” I thought to myself as I was alone at home in front of the TV eating the last bit of oven cheese the wooden bowl scratched.
