How do you build an outdoor fire in a firepit?

I just bought my husband a fire-bowl type of fire pit for our anniversary (7th=copper). I would like detailed instructions on how to best build a fire. I don’t want to use a duraflame log, since they are not for cooking on. We would like to toast marshmallows on it.

Does anyone know the clearance needed to build a fire pit in a wooden deck?

Matt R asked:
I’m planning on building a 10×10 wooden deck on the hillside below my house. I want to construct a brick fire pit on the ground with the deck surrounding it. I cannot find anything on clearance needed, how high the walls need to be above the deck, distance from the decking to the brick. Fire bricks, if so how thick? Any help or directions on where to look for answers would be greatly appreciated!
