Making an Oil Candle in a Citrus Fruit


I saw this on Facebook yesterday and since I had a bowl full of pink grapefruit, I thought I would try it. Of course the picture on Facebook was just a picture so I did what I always do -- Googled it! There were several how to sites and blogs about it and it was quite easy to do.

It does not smell like grapefruit -- more like something being fried in canola oil! I don't know if this would be more than a clever centerpiece on a table, but since you can eat the inside first before making the candle, it would be one way of recycling the rind or at least re-purposing the fruit.

Happy . . . well. . . whatever.
