Sparklers and S'mores

Grocery shopping any time around the 4th of July means that there’s a pile of ‘safe’ fireworks set up as impulse buys at the start of check out. I regret nothing! Mom said she could fit all of “Happy Birthday” and Alexis and I didn’t believe it - but she’s basically magic and really great at sparkler writing!

And when you’ve got sparklers around a fire - you might as well make s’mores right? But gelatin in things completely freaks me out, so usual marshmallows are off the table. And vegan marshmallows just don’t behave the same way. But have you ever tried fire-roasted strawberries? And maybe instead of graham crackers - nutter butters? Alexis says we shouldn’t give our secret recipe away but I say the more we get to the strawberry side, the better!
