Fireplace Smores

We sometime wonder why so many houses in Texas have fireplaces. We never use it for heat and unless we have a party or something, it usually stays off. I worry that the kids will touch the hot glass. Tonight we found a great use for our fireplace. Equipped with fondue forks we toasted our marshmallows, warmed our gram cracker that was stacked with chocolate in the oven, and made a fabulous treat. The kids got a kick out of it and Carter got really messy. Everyone required a bath afterwards, but there were no flaming marshmallows.

I'm jealous of your children. Smores in the house over a fireplace. Sure beats using a microwave.

That's funny...I remember Tiffany eating her smore's the same way in college. I think she was a bit messier though.
