Copper Fire Pit

(Another trial post from Anna!

6-29--lands.jpgHaving been raised by two of the staunchest Midwesterners youll meet either side of the Mississippi, I am well acquainted with the mail order offerings of Lands End.

More than one of my school photos was taken with me in one of the companys striped rugby shirts or cotton crewneck sweaters. As an adult woman whose fashion has taken a slightly more feminine turn, it still pleases me to browse the Lands End website, especially when I happen upon an item thats actually fitting for my L.A. life.

 
 

This year, the online catalog offers a handsome copper fire pit for all your backyard (or garden) gathering needs. Cozier than a grill, a fire pit gives you something to gather around, gaze across during the Beatles sing-along, and stare into when it gets late and theres not much left to say.

And compared to the positively gothic designs Ive seen at Home Depot, the Lands End pit is inoffensively streamlined. It would be a great addition to any party, to give our city lives a little primordial oomph.

I like it! The driftwood in the photo is a nice touch, and will give us Valley folk a taste of the beach. Oh wait, is the driftwood sold separately? hee.

I like so many of the things on this site, but I have to admit it is refreshing to see something that's not in the "too cool for school", "hipster designy" realm. Sometimes we just want to see functional, inoffensive stuff.
