Oh, the packaged ones suck. They need to be homemade and still slightly warm.

I had s'mores this weekend! Em and I went to Girl Scout camp! We set the first one on fire, eat it, and then toast one for the actual s'more.
ALso very good? Get chunks of banana - about marshmallow sized - and roast it over the fire and then out that between the chocolate and the grahams. SO NOMMITY DELICIOUS!
I was sweating in my house.
Don't you live in Texas? Isn't that the norm?
What do you mean, you aren't supposed to set the marshmallows on fire?
Jilli's way is the one true way.
Apart from where she eats them, yes.
The norm in Texas is to air-condition things so much that it's a shock when you go outside, and your glasses fog up from the change in temperature.
Yesterday I got to meet an uncle I didn't know I had. He was dropped on his head as a baby, and suffered severe brain damage. He's been in an institution most all his life.
He was at another uncle's 85 birthday party yesterday.
My mom's mom had 12 kids: two sets of twins (one set died shortly after birth), one stillborn baby, one son who was killed in a sledding accident, the one dropped on his head... and the rest. </Gilligan's Island>
They were dairy farmers, just like my dad's parents.
They need to be homemade and still slightly warm.
Oh, yeah . . .
Wait, stainless steel has nickel in it? I'm allergic to nickel, too, and have become even more so in the last decade. I can't even take Centrum multivitamins anymore (because I get an awful taste in my mouth that tastes like nickel and so I decided that was the problem. I'm not even looking at the Logical Fallacies chart, I know that's False Cause. Still not taking 'em anymore though).
Have never been in a bouncy castle. Don't want to. Like trampolines, I've watched too much America's Funniest Videos to entirely trust them not to try to kill me. I'm sure I've eaten s'mores, but gluey sugary food doesn't do it for me. I have however toasted/roasted/set aflame marshmallows. They're pretty good when there's a thin layer of crunchy carbon on them.
I've never been in a bouncy house that I can recall. I think they are rich people things! Or something. People-with-yards things?
Around here, they are street fair things, definitely not for rich people. Five minutes costs a dollar, usually, and all the neighborhood kids line up.
Wait, stainless steel has nickel in it?
Some stainless steel does, anyway, although the primary metal the steel is mixed with is apparently chromium. But my dad the engineer says that if I'm allergic to nickel, that's why I can't wear my stainless-steel watch.
