With temps slated for the fifties tonight and tomorrow morning it’s hard to believe we were cooking just two months ago. Ah well, I’ll take the changing seasons over the constant swelter of my hometown anyday.

If you’ve got the deck space maybe you’d like to keep warm with an outdoor firepit. I don’t understand why Target would do it, but they’ve got several models at half-off just in time for the chill. They should have been slashing prices in June, not now, but hey – $55 for an attractive and functional wood burner is a sweet deal compared to the more typical $100 and up. Target in Reston had three units when I was in earlier today, go grab yourself one.
