I am a self-proclaimed
s’mores freak.
I think that love comes from the pure joy and innocent feeling I have when I eat them. They take me back to the days of camping with Girl Scouts, building bonfires with my family on a cool fall evning at my uncle’s ranch, and New Kids on the Block.
Not that I ever ate s’mores with the New Kids on the Block, although I wouldn’t be opposed to sharing a gooey s’more with Marky Mark; but I was obsessed with NKOTB at the same time of my life when I was in Girl Scouts and building bonfires.
S’mores make you feel like a kid again and again every time you eat them (evident by all my s’mores party guests). I think that is why they are loved by all!
Another classiclly fun treat from my younger years, Rice Krispie Treats. I mean in classic form the are similar to a s’more with all that ooey gooey-ness, so why not combine them?!?
Dare I scream fun!
