Summer Lovin'

Have I mentioned how much I love these long summer days and breezy nights out on the porch with the mister?  Because I do.  I love these (sing it with me) su-ummer...ni-iiights!  Okay, I think John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John definitely said sang it better.  So, for your viewing and listening pleasure, and because Grease remains in my top favorite summer movies of all time:

I love things that remind me of summer.  A couple of those items are Banana Boat and s'mores.  I love laying by the pool all day smelling all coconuty, then everyone gathering 'round the campfire at night.  Well, we didn't get around to buying a fire pit this year, so roasting over anything other than our gas stove is out of the question.  Not to mention I'm the crazy lady running around with Clorox wipes because I don't like to get sticky.  So s'mores with melted chocolatey goodness oozing out the sides isn't exactly my cup of tea.  Never fear, S'mores-on-a-Stick are here!  That's right--bite sized chocolatey and marshmallowy goodness!  And of course, supa simple because...well, it's s'mores.

You'll need:

1 cup of chocolate chips
1/2 bag of large marshmallow puffs
handful of small pretzel sticks
1 cup of graham crackers (ground up)

Melt the chocolate of your choice (the Mr. likes Hershey's dark chocolate chips).  Make your assembly line of pretzels, marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers and start dippin'!

Let them cool for an hour or two (or overnight if you fall asleep on the couch, oops!) and enjoy!

I hope your weekend is full of some of your summertime faves...and some s'mores-on-a-stick!
