S'Mores A'More

.
We all camped out. It was kind of like being in my own back yard, and was only about five miles down the road. There was a lake, sand dunes, a dock, and a beach not so far away. Close enough even to receive vibes from the Thought Dock. We took the Manor on Wheels there and my wife got up early every day and went to work right from the camp out. But it was nice to get away and socialize.


My brudda and his wife, Kathy, and their grand daughter Katlyn (5), and their grandson Austin (3), and their dog Sidney(4), and their daughter Nancy (25), and her dog Kobe (3), and her boyfriend Brad, and everyones friend Elma (93), and their other friend John, and his wife Tanya, and their dog Princess(1), and their son David (10), and their daughter Sarah(5), and my brudda wife's sister Karen, and her son Rob(18), and his girlfriend Sarah (18), were all there too.


Apparently Kathy was in the Girl Scouts of America and she couldn't wait to show off her scouting skills for her grand children. Now it's been 47 or so years since she learned how to make S'Mores, and to aggravate the situation, I don't think her tires were properly inflated, either then, or when she set out to impress the kids. Remember S'Mores? If you've never had one, or can't recall, they are made from melted chocolate and a marshmallow, squished between two squares of graham crackers. Most everyone I knew loved them, except me (of course you say, because you think I'm weird).


Well, Kathy remembered there was a campfire involved, and we had a good one going. And, she knew there was melted chocolate involved, but the rest must have been really fuzzy to her. She is a very crafty kind of gal though. That said, here is what she did. Keep in mind that I did not actually see this, but that it was reported to me by someone else who was laughing very hard.


Kathy fashioned a cup from tinfoil and put the chocolate bar in it, then placed them on the grill next to the burning fire, which melted the chocolate. Then she placed a cold marshmallow on a cracker, poured the melted chocolate over it, then covered it all with the second cracker. And Shaa Zaam!! There it was. The hybrid S'More!


The kids were impressed and sucked them down as quick as she could make them. But those of us that were properly tuned, had to laugh. And that we did. For my Followers that don't know, you make S'Mores by placing an un-melted piece of chocolate on a graham cracker, then place a well toasted marshmallow from the campfire on the chocolate and cover it all with a second cracker, and squish it almost flat, which turns it into a gooey mess of melted chocolate and marshmallow that dripped all over as you tried to eat it. The toasting of the marshmallow over the open fire seemed to be the fun part, yet some how Kathy forgot that part.


Oh well, she was a good sport about it. By the end of our camp out, she had the proper procedure down pat, and I'm sure she will never forget it.
