While staying at the Hotel Del Coronado for our two year anniversary, my husband surprised me with a bonfire and S’mores, which the hotel offers. In the evening, they set up a bonfire on the beach and have a bucket waiting with anything and everything you need to make S’mores! I swear I haven’t made S’mores since I was a Girl Scout. Actually, the first record of S’mores is in a Girl Scout book and the name used to be “Some More.” I used to love roasting marshmallows and squeezing the Graham crackers around them along with a chunk of a Hershey’s chocolate bar. They had all these exact ingredients, along with metal sticks. I felt like I was at summer camp with my hubby! Most of you probably know how good this dessert is, but I have to tell you, it was a lot better than I remembered. I think my appreciation for “oldies but goodies” has increased. You can’t get any fresher than when roast marshmallows yourself. I love roasting a marshmallow and letting it catch on fire. What’s great is that you can decide how you want your marshmallow. I like mine burnt on the outside! This dessert hit the spot so much, I had a total of three! What more can a gal ask for than to be on a beautiful beach, making S’mores with a bonfire, in the evening with her hubby? Not too much, except the IPad set to the “Star Walk” application and seeing their names and locations as we pan it across the night sky. All this while enjoying one of the great American desserts. xoxoBrownie
