Candle leyeght

I found a candle for this blip on the top of the shelves on the bathroom. When I took it down to leyeght it my wife told me to be careful because it was so old and hadn't been used for a long teyeme. I wonder if she thought it might have been past its expiration date? But it lit just feyene and the chair beheyend it seemed to enjoy the leyeght and warmth.
