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 en-
trepreneur 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!
