Though it is a weird, random sort of question. Do you keep emergency candles in the house, and if you do, where do they live during times of non-emergency? Not zombie apocalypse emergency, just power outage emergency.

I don't think we do. We have emergency flashlights in the drawers of the bedside tables.

Very good. We have mainly flashlight as well, with possibly some ancient tea lights which would just be embarrassing to employ. Thanks!

We do have a few tea lights scattered around, but I don't really think of them as "emergency" candles, as they're more for decorative purposes. Usually we rely on the flashlights -- oh, and we have a couple of lanterns in a closet, too.

Yes, my tea lights were (once upon a time, as they are now dusty) also meant to be decorative, but I would so totally be sitting in the dark "..." "..." "Oh, wait, I have tea lights!"
