Last Thanksgiving I hosted my entire family for dinner. I had beautiful fall decorations and glowing candles lit everywhere. The scene was warm, cozy, and serene, that is until ... my 17 yr old's daughter's long hair started to go up in FLAMES! She leaned back against a counter and her hair drifted into a votive.
