Ghetto Supastar

This summer will be the 4th one we have spent in our house. Our master bedroom has bay windows facing the west. By about 6 pm in July you could put a pot of water on the windowsill and cook pasta to a perfect al dente.

It's pretty ghetto, but we finally lined the windows with foil. It's cheaper than paying for fancy window film and actually an improvement from the dark sheets we've had hanging over the wood blinds for the last year.

When the blinds are closed you can barely even see it. As an added bonus, I have a stockpile readily available if I'm ever roasting a turkey and need to line the pan and find I'm fresh out of foil.
