Last Friday, the family made our bimonthly expedition to the holy land, otherwise known as Target.
Let me tell you something about Target, it is pure shopping crack. You go there with a list of 3 items, and you leave with 23 items. I can get lost in the seasonal aisles for hours. I am pretty sure that the employees know me on sight, and FOR SURE the Starbucks guy in Target does. Please tell me your Target stores have Starbucks like mine….? it’s heavenly. One of these days I am going to suggest they put my picture on the wall next to the store manager. I’m that important to their monthly sales.
You wait and see.
Anyway, where was I? Oh, so we were shopping last Friday, and on a whim S. and I spotted a fire bowl. Truth be told, S. was looking for it. I was like, WHY do we need a freaking fire bowl for the patio? What IS a fire bowl?? Why not a chiminea?
Wait, what the hell is a chiminea? Nah, we do fire bowls here.
Dude, it was ON SALE for $49, so we bought it! And I laughed thinking it was the most dumb, impulsive purchase ever from Target.
And you know what? It was the BEST money ever spent. We fired that baby up at 9pm Saturday night, and beers in hand (David had root beer) we toasted to our most AWESOME patio purchase. We relaxed by the fire, sang silly songs, and pretended we were stranded on an island with just us and the mighty fire bowl.
We made wishes as the embers floated up to the heavens.
Most unexpected.
