Candles? Hmm...

So the store didn't have any more candles. They also didn't have any batteries.

A full audit of the house did reveal candles! But...


That's right. We're armed with four boxes of birthday candles, no flashlights, no batteries. We do have lots of firewood, but that's unlikely to help us in a hurricane. If one of us has a spontaneous birthday, however, we're set!
