Citrus Fruit Candle Centerpiece - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 oranges
2 limes
2 lemons
1 berry wood branch
5 pillar candles

Preparation

Slice the oranges, limes and lemons 1/8-inch thick.
Put a wire rack on top of a cookie sheet and lay each piece of sliced fruit on the rack.
Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
When the oven is hot, place the rack of fruit in the oven and let \"bake\" for two hours (if your fruit is taking a long time to dry, turn the oven off and leave the fruit in overnight.
When the fruit is dry and cool, hot-glue the citrus pieces to one another by overlapping them in line with the candle's base. Do not glue-gun the candle directly or the wax will melt.
When the candles are completely decorated, and the glue is dry, stagger the candles in the middle of your Thanksgiving table and weave the berry branch throughout.
