Yep! Graham cracker and chocolate rimmed glasses, marshmallow flavored vodka ice cream, a drizzle of chocolate and of course a fired-up marshmallow on top!
What The Heck Are S’Mores?
My colonial ole British hubby looked at me and asked this question one hot July day. My reply? “What planet are you from”!
Every American knows the smell of marshmallows both melting and burning over an outdoor fire. We used to just eat them off the stick while they oozed of melted sugar.
Then, someone came along (probably the makers of graham crackers), and created this decadent dessert sandwich with graham crackers, chocolate somewhere in the mix and a melted marshmallow in the middle.
S’Mores Vodka Ice Cream?
Of course! When I saw a bottle of Marshmallow flavored vodka at the store, I knew that bottle was coming home with me and we’d marry up into some homemade ice cream.
Homemade ice cream is so easy to make and can be made into a gazillion flavors. Make life easy on yourself, throw-down and buy yourself an ice cream maker, they cost under a hundred bucks, like, way under.
Here are just a few of my favorite homemade ice cream recipes. Once the batter is made, the ice cream is churned and ready to eat in about 20-minutes.

I believe the table... that place that draws people to gather, is the most powerful symbol of togetherness. All that happens before the table is set, the planning, the gathering, the preparing, are all an intricate part of the dance that create the mood of celebration to share with friends and loved ones.
