Was it MrsGrumpy? Can't remember...

Anyway, we tried it last night, and GOSHDANG is it delicious!

1. Did it have that waxy taste?

:puke:

[Maddy McCall]

2. No, no more than marshmallows over an open fire taste like wood.

Honestly, it tasted JUST LIKE marshmallows roasted outside.

It was GOOD. :D

3. What do you use to spear them with?

I once knew a guy that would roast the big ones with his bic lighter. :)

[Maddy McCall]

5. Just a wooden toothpick.

Ya ought to try it. :D

7. *going to the store now*

I sense a new diet fad being born. :D

[Maddy McCall]

8. LOL.

You'll be in sugar heaven, that's for sure. :D

Edit: Just be sure you have an UNSCENTED candle. :D

4. That's a great idea!

I think I might do that with the kids tonight, before bed!

[Maddy McCall]

6. That's what we did last night before bed. We both had a cup of cocoa

and I lit two candles and we roasted marshmallows for 30 minutes or so...it was fun to just sit there with my kid and talk nonsense and eat marshmallows.

9. Then dip then in chocolate fondue!

14. dh said I was insane for doing it!

he busted me eating it for lunch one day, when he wasn's supposed to be home yet.
sometimes I just want to eat marshmallows for lunch, ya know?

I do the jumbo ones too...roast them several times- roast, peel and eat, roast, peel and eat...yum!

[Maddy McCall]

16. LOL

We ate them last night, while we sipped hot cocoa. Just the perfect late-night snack before bedtime. :D

Were you the one who posted about it on DU? If so, THANKS!! :D

[fleabert]

18. t'wern't moi...but I could have!

that story got thrown around a lot by the dh for weeks afterwards, you know the kind...
'my wife is so weird, do you know what she did last week?' kinda story.

[texas1928]
