S'mores Amore Do you love the marshmallow-chocolatey goodness of a S'more? Then do I have a holiday for you! Yes, it's true. August 10th is National S'mores Day! The origin of this gooey campfire treat is credited to the entrepreneur Alec Barnum, however the first recorded version of the recipe can be found in the 1927 publication of Tramping and Trailing with the Girl Scouts. Even though the Girl Scouts were not the first ones to make s'mores, Girl Scout groups describe them in their reports as early as 1925. Earlier recipes used the name "Some Mores" and it is unclear when the name was shortened to "s'mores". Today there are many variations to the original s'more as well as unique tools to assist in perfecting this delicious indulgence Get ready for campfires, nature walks and plenty of s'mores!
