Adventures in Candle Making, Episode 1:

Introducing the Kamikaze Leftovers Candle.
Made from remnants of candles past. (Have you any idea what they put in those things? Oh, the horror!) An intoxicating (and probably toxic) blend of beeswax, soy, paraffin, and about 10 different synthetic scents.

Just look at all the nasty, sooty bits leftover in the pan... I probably won't even burn it.

All of which means it's time to get crackin' on the Meem soy candles (which are clean-burning, nearly carbon-neutral, and made with essential oils or phthalate-free fragrance oils).
