Toasted Marshmallow Day

How did you celebrate Toasted Marshmallow Day?

I had this cute vision of having a little bonfire this evening after Levi got home from school. And then I remembered... a.) Levi had football practice tonight, and b.) Jason had to work tonight. So, that blew that out of the water.

We still celebrated though.

Here's what we did...

I put some fat marshmallows on a baking sheet



then I stuck them under the broiler on high



but you gotta watch them cause they heat up FAST!



YUM! Toasted Marshmallows!



A perfect S'More



doubly delicious if you've just spent the hour and a half before at football practice. Just ask Levi!



I couldn't take a picture of me eating mine... but I ate one too...



How did YOU celebrate??

my friend Jeni sent me this link to another way that you could celebrate Toasted Marshmallow Day, and it looks super yummy!!

*** HEAD'S UP!!! ***

I couldn't find anything to celebrate for tomorrow. I guess if you missed toasted marshmallow day today you could always celebrate it tomorrow. But... Wednesday, September 1st is "Bison-ten Yell Day" (if anyone knows what this ACTUALLY means please enlighten me!) It's also "Emma M. nutt Day" (get it?), national no rhyme nor reason day, and Executive Toy Test Day

Have fun! And as always... if you celebrate, let me know and I'll post it on the blog!

  2. Great idea, I never thought to put them in the broiler. We will have to try that.
    The Uno game looks like fun. I hope that Moon Dough is different then the moon sand. I ended up having to throw away the moon sand. It was like being at the beach and tracking the sand into your house.
