DH and I just came in from outside. Once the sun goes down, it cools off fast here in the desert.
We just enjoyed a fire in our firepit along with a Baileys Irish Cream. I have quite a stash of firelogs purchased over the past year or so with firelog winetags. I would wait for the store brand to go on sale and then pick them up for free. Termites are prevalent here in the SW so you don't want to keep a stockpile of firewood. If and when I run out of firelogs, I think I will make logs from newspaper.
The Baileys was left over from Christmas and we certainly don't want to waste it. :-) Which reminds me of the great deal DH got just before Christmas on our appertif glasses. I only had 3 good crystal ones and I was needing 8 for company for a week. DH and DS went out looking for them. They came home with beautiful sets of 6 from Big Lots that were really cheap- about .94 cents a glass. Everytime I use them, I think of their frugal prowess that day!
