Episode 268: The Heat Feels Good Against Your Palms

How about a fire tonight? asks Mazolli. Great, says Terrastina, I’ll get some wood. While she’s outside, Mazolli opens the flue and balls up sheets of newspaper for kindling. Terrastina returns with some split logs. The twins run into the living room. Yeah! they say. A fire! Mazolli arranges the wood around the newspaper balls and puts a match to the structure. Flames rise up, coating the logs in liquid orange. The twins bounce up and down and clap. Can we put in egg cartons? they say. Sure, says Terrastina. Go get them. We’ll wait for you right here.
