May I Have S'more?

Almost nothing screams Summertime quite like S'mores. The crunchy graham cracker, the ooey-gooey chocolate and warm, toasty marshmallow. THAT, my friends is Heaven! When you have alot of get togethers around the fire, the same old-same old gets a bit old. You gotta change it up a bit! There are many variations of S'mores, but I'll just name a few here.
