Ever used “fatwood”?

So it’s 28 degrees outside with a very light snow fall and my wife’s family is up for the thanksgiving holiday.  I enjoy making and having fires in my house and have come to love our double sided fireplace that is the center of our house.  I found this interesting product at one of the big boxes stores a few months back and bought a bag.  It’s called "fatwood" and is 100% organic and is made from the stumps of harvested pine trees.  You basically take a few sticks out of the bundle and put them at the base of the wood stack you have built for your fire. You put a flame to the "fatwood" and it literally bursts into flame and kicks the fire into action.  It really is amazing stuff and I’ll never use fire starter or paper again.

I pray you have a cozy thanksgiving with your family as well.

And if you need to start a fire this winter, grab a couple sticks of "fatwood".
