Candles in the Bathroom

My wife likes candles because they smell good and are pretty. I see them in a much more practical manner. I realized that I can use the heat from the candle's flame to increase the surface temperature of the mirror and thereby increase the dew-point reducing the the fog that builds up during my shower. It works out great. I light the candle and place it next to the mirror, near the sink. When I am done, there is a nice, clear, vertical column for me to shave in the mirror, that is clear of fog, and the bathroom smells "nice." A real win-win situation.
