Hi Nancy,

I noticed that there are now large
marshmallows out--something that I missed previously?

They're fairly new I guess.

Apparantly so. Supersize me mentality.

I've seen them for a couple of years now... I think the idea
is that it fills the s'more better... Seems like overkill to
me, too... ;)

Encourages the kids to develop their cravings for sugar faster too.

Or at least easier... I've known plenty of kids that would simply eat
the whole bag of the regular sized ones... ;)

Probably enough adults have done it as well. (G)

I've not done it, we never bought a lot of marshmallows. Only time we
did get a lot was when we were heading to Switzerland for the EBC annual meeting. We'd buy the marshmallows and graham crackers at the
commissary, the chocolate, of course in Switzerland. (G) Had to make the s'mores over the camp (propane) stove one year as it was too wet for a campfire.

IIRC, each of the families that camped in Interlaken brought a bag or 2

campers. The year we did it on the camp stove, had a couple of American

had fun, as did their parents, making and eating the goodies.

Very much so! The year before, somebody else brought some and the last
night was passing the bag. Someone passed it over the fire and the
person taking it took just a second or two too long to grab it. Bottom
melted, marshmallows got roasted rather quickly. (Other bags were quikly brought out.)

We've got some graham crackers for our camping with grand kids this
summer. Made a dessert for tomorrow's LG that needed one pack so I've
still got 2 packs from the box yet. You would think somebody would come
up with a one pack box of them and market it.........after all, how
often do you need 3 packs of graham crackers at once?

Probably depends on how often one is eating graham crackers on their

graham crackers to church with him to give to whichever baby it was at

Hi Nancy,

In grade school we used to have a mid morning snack of milk
and graham crackers. Crackers came in (what seemed like) a big
box, enough to serve the class for a good while.

Graham crackers were a healthy and tasty snack... :)

Sadly, most of them aren't any more.

One just has to pick and choose carefully... :)

Exactly! Our campimg trip with Deborah didn't come off so we still
have the graham crackers. Will most likely use them on the trip with Rachel's family.

If not, will you leave them behind...? Or bring back home with
you...?

Unknown at this point. We may try to get in a day or so at a state park
in VT..................

And treat yourselves to s'mores...? ;) I suppose you could save them
for making the [whatever] YumYum for the picnic.... ;)

All TBD at this point. Ask me again in a couple of weeks. (G)

By which time they might still be sitting... or have been used for
something after all... ;)

They're sitting in our kitchen, waiting to be reshelved until such time
as needed. Campground in MT had no suitable place to use them, one in NC
we were only there to sleep, eat breakfast (and lunch on last day) &
change clothes. Other nights were mostly W-M parking lots, one night at
a truck stop.
