Welcome to my April 2023 Great and Powerful Blogging from A to Z Challenge!

I’ve revealed my theme (My life in first drafts), but this year, instead of pretending there were ever plans, I am unashamedly blogging my theme letters on the fly.  So, here goes nothing!

So, without further ado, F is for Fire Table.

A few years back, I believe in 2019, we finally after much debate and searching bought a fire table for our deck. One we could plug into the gas outlet so we didn’t have to rely on propane all the time. You may have seen pictures of it here before, but I’ll add some later in the post, don’t worry.

We are really lucky here to be able to not only bbq all year round (which we did in Saskatchewan too, but only to -30C) but also to be able to sit outside comfortably most of the time. The fire table has not only made those times even more comfortable, but made the less comfy times (when it gets “cold” here) welcoming to deck times.

One thing about the fire table is that it did not come with glass around the flame area. It was just open. I don’t know about you, but when the wind picks up I would prefer not to catch on fire because I’m leaning a bit too close to the flames, so Kevin adding the glass component was a good call. And it looks nice too.

There is nothing like sitting by the fire table at the end of a long day with a glass of wine and maybe some bbq appies while Kevin cooks the main part of our dinner. It might not send off a huge amount of heat (although the awning it is under does help trap it a bit) but just sitting next to the quiet flames is a happy place. Wish you could be here too!

Guess I’m kind of a rebel too…although I do like using the “official” letters…
