Hey Sylphira, I was thinkin’ about makin’ a fire pit in the yard—gotta use the right kind of wood so it doesn’t smoke up the whole hill. Got any tips on pickin’ the best kind of wood or maybe a herb to keep the fire clean?

For a clean fire, pick dry hardwoods like oak, hickory, or beech—they burn hot and give off little smoke. Skip pine or resin‑heavy woods; they’ll puff a lot of soot. If you want a little herb help, toss a handful of dried sage or rosemary in the pile; they release a pleasant scent and help keep the smoke from getting too thick. Just make sure the wood is well seasoned and dry before you light it. Good luck, and enjoy the warmth!

Sounds good, partner. I'll make sure the oak's dry as a rock and toss in that sage. Thanks for the tip—hope the fire stays cozy and not a whole mess!

Glad to help—watch the sparks, and let the oak glow steady. When the sage’s fragrance fills the air, you’ll know it’s all right. Enjoy the quiet moments by the fire.
