Roasting on an open fire

Last night we got to have a special treat - as Neal said, more for us than for Meredith. We made a fire and roasted marshmallows to make S'mores! This was especially exciting to me because at our old house we had gas logs, which meant 1) Neal always gave me a hard time about running the gas to have a fire at all and 2) Marshmallows and gas fireplaces don't mix. Meredith was very excited about the "treat" I kept talking up, but in the end, just ate chocolate (she decided the marshmallows were too hot in the smore and I think she didn't like how sticky they made her hands) - although she thought just that was great!

Just a slight mishap with the marshmallows - and she didn't even really injest any!
