The Luxury of a Soak

The least expensive and most rewarding luxury I know is a simple one: a long, candle-lit soak in a tub.I've indulged in this luxury since childhood. Then, I locked my bathroom door and filled the tub with the hottest water over and over again, always emptying the tub when the water turned cool.

Now, I do it less and less, but always in semi-darkness and always at the end of a long day.
