I love a good campfire! Whether your chilling on beach, out in the desert, high in the mountains, or even in your own backyard, stoking a bonfire all night long with a large group of friends or just tossing a few logs on a warm-me-up evening campfire, it's a special kind of cozy outdoor fun.S'mores of course get their name from the fact that many a person, faced with the nighttime treat of a roasted marshmallow and a slab of chocolate sandwiched between two graham crackers, wants Some More! This treat may have been invented by Girl Scouts; at any rate, the first recorded recipe for S'mores can be found in a 1927 Girl Scout guide.
If you cannot afford to go on vacation this August, try pitching a tent in your backyard and enjoy a staycation!
