S'More Goodness



In my household, S'mores reign supreme amongst favorite yummies for my husband and daughter. It's like one of those stats where I am sure if you lined up s'mores side by side it would circle the earth 3x---THAT is the level of S'more eating that goes on between the two of them. S'mores remind me of all my fond memories of my years in Girl Scouts and camping. I also associate S'mores as one of the perfect cold weather-cozy up by the fire-favorite socks on-sort of treats. So I have done some web-hunting for some S'more recipes with a twist...although nothing will ever compare to a good ol' classic s'more. Above, is Coastal Living Magazine's recipe for grilled banana s'mores. You know how there are certain recipes where as soon as you read them, you think, "OMGosh! I must go out and buy everything I need to make this right now!"? Well. this is one of those recipes. However, it is night time and my daughter is asleep, so I will be making plans to make this over the weekend which will be perfect after a busy week. Until then, all I will be thinking is grilled banana s'mores, grilled banana s'mores, grilled bana----you get the point. Below are 2 more yummo S'more recipes I came across.



S'more Tiramisu by Southern Living. Okay, basically, this is one of those desserts where I'm a math genius S'mores + Tiramisu= Pure Bliss + Heaven

Leave it to Gourmet Magazine to come up with S'more Pie. If anyone can turn S'mores into a yummo pie like this one, it would only be Gourmet magazine. Think yummy sweet chocolatey graham crackery cloud of toasted marshmallow in a dish. Cue the singing angels when this pie comes out of the oven. Click here for recipe.

Still Life Art-Pumpkin Style

Southern Living

While my cat snoozes away on a pile of laundry, I have been browsing through some of my favorite mags and their websites on this rainy early autumn afterrnoon and thought I'd share this lovely pumpkin yard display with you. I found the idea at SouthernLiving.com I am starting to prefer the elegant look of  fog gray and sand white colored pumpkins. Well, I love the traditional orange ones too. But, something about these just seem so east coast-ish in my opinion. They remind me of the colors of the atlantic beach on a winter morning. Happy Autumn.
