[Sca-cooks] Shabbos Candles, was Kashrut

[Kirsten Houseknecht]

i will try to find some kind of container for the candles...
i admit, i just use the glass "hurricaine" lamps over each candle holder, as
being simnple. but they do NOT pack well.

how about window screen? you can see light through it quite well, but it
reduces the likely hood of wind blowing it out.....
