S'Mores Anyone?

One thing we wanted to do over the weekend was put our new fire pit to use and make s'mores.  However, if you live in our area you will know that was nearly impossible since the wind was so strong all weekend.  So, tonight was the night and we even had the company of our small group (who are really our friends).

The boys got the fire started for us and then we all went to town with the marshmallows!  In my last issue of Food Network Magazine I found several different versions of s'mores.  We decided to try the Elvis (banana and peanut butter) and the Mint Chocolate (York Peppermint Patty) versions, along with the traditional versions.  I think the Elvis was a hit, along with our own version of peanut butter and chocolate.

Here is I am putting my peanut butter and chocolate s'more together.  I don't like to get my marshmallows too gooey!

And somehow, I'm the only one Brandon got a picture of stuffing my face.  But in an effort to keep things real here, I figured I should post the pic anyway...

The evening couldn't have been more perfect to be outside enjoying the fire.  We will definitely be putting the new fire pit to use a lot this fall.  I'm thinking wine around the fire sounds nice, too!  Anyone want to join me?
