I had a few final thoughts on last week’s party theme: Camp. But, things got a little away from me at the end of the week (one of my classic apologies), so let’s pack it up.
As you may recall, I thought I had lost my Golden Graham cereal forever and then was able to find it in the grocery store (What an emotional rollercoaster!) I put my box to good use and made the Golden Graham S’mores recipe. We loved it. (I loved a whole lot of it.) And the staff was beaming when they came home from a long day of nature camp and were greeted by a glass of cold milk and s’mores. (“Wow Mom, you’re the best! Hey, who ate half the pan already?”)
I had to see if my faux fire idea would work — that is attaching tissue paper to a fan. I’m all about theater and I made this nifty video on some software I found on my computer.
I’m not willing to admit defeat. The staff is not deeming it a true success. And Mr. Party MOMster is just a little worried.
Finally, I couldn’t finish our camp discussion without giving a nod to one of my favorite movies, a tour de force in the summer camp genre: Meatballs
That’s it for my foolin’ around (for now).

Scary bear in the S'mores picture!!
I am wiping the tears from my eyes as the opening song to Meatballs ends. Kudos to you for such a great movie reference. Someday our kids will appreciate it too!
I am so pleased to hear some love for the movie. I haven't seen it in awhile. I just searched and Meatballs II is on Comedy Central next week, which is the equilavent of The Godfather III as far as I'm concerned. I am declaring a "Meatballs watch" — if it comes on TV please alert me.
Oh, and the bear was keeping watch on my s'more, so no one else would eat it. Kind of a "Leggo my Eggo" — touch my s'more and this bear will maul you.
That s'more has my eye and I can't get past it. I want it. Good thing the bear is watching it for you.
I am going to have to try the s'more recipe. I just love the real thing and this looks just as delicious. Printing the recipe now!
