Is it an open fireplace or does it have an insert?  The inserts do a
good job at improving the efficiency.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.05
 
      Title: Skeleton Bones (Cookies)
 Categories: Snack, Halloween, Cookie
      Yield: 1 Servings
 
      4 lg Egg whites
      1 ts Grated orange peel
  1 1/2 c  Salted almonds
  1 3/4 c  Sugar
    1/2 ts Baking powder
  1 3/4 c  Flour
 
  With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat egg whites and sugar with
  orange peel and baking powder until blended.  Gradually add nuts and
  flour, beating until mixture is thoroughly mixed.
  
  Cover and chill until firm enough to handle, at least 1 hour or up to
  one  day.
  
  Lightly flour your hands and pinch off a 3-Tbsp-size piece of dough.
  Roll into an 8-inch-long rope.  Cut rope in half; roll each half out
  again to 8 inches. Fold 1 inch of each end back onto rope; pinch ends
  to make bone-end shapes.  Repeat to shape all the dough.
  
  Place bones 1 inch apart on buttered and flour-dusted 12x15 inch
  baking sheets.  Bake in a 325 oven until cookies are lightly browned
  on bottoms, about 20 minutes.  (If using 2 pans in 1 oven, switch
  positions halfway through baking).  With a wide spatula, transfer
  bones to racks to cool.  Serve or store airtight up to 3 days.
  
  Makes about 2 dozen.
  
  Notes: Be sure to use *only* the 3-Tbsp-size dough to size bones. Any
  bigger and you'll end up with clubs, not bones.  The finished shape
  looks like a femur (thigh-bone).  Also, try rolling the dough out and
  use bone-shaped cookie cutters.  Don't place cookies closer than
  1-inch apart - they spread during baking!
