Spider hot dogs + S'mores + Jiffy Pop = Camp Fire Snacks {Part 3 }

One of the things I like best about camping is sitting around the fire and enjoying all the tasty camping treats. Our top picks are ...

Roasting Marshmallows

And Spider Hot dogs (even the Lil Man enjoyed his first taste of Spider Hot dogs)...
 

 

Roxy was being her usual shelf begging for food ... 

 

...and she ended up with a splatter of ketchup on her ear {silly dog}. Shortly after this photo was taken, Roxy was really tired and insisted on her own chair to sleep on (next camping trip we must remember to pack an extra chair for her).

 

When I was out grabbing all the items for our camping trip I found some mini Rolo chocolates and decided to grab them to make some of these ...

Rolo S'mores. They were really good.

This camping trip I had Jiffy Pop for the first time! It's not bad but I rather stick to having popcorn at home. It was quite pricey for a package of Jiffy Pop (over $3.00), but it was interesting watching how it is prepared over the fire.

 

 

There was one other snack we did not get around to making this past camping trip, hopefully we will be able to make it during our next trip at the end of the month. 

 

Do you have a specially camping treat/ snack you always make on your camping adventures? If so, please share in the comments section!

 

 

Quick Easter Treat

Last year for Easter I made Rice Krispie Easter Eggs with a surprise mini chocolate egg inside and little bird nests. They are a bit time consuming making since they need to be shaped into an oval, but they turn out cute.

You make them like you do regular rice krispie squares and then you just shape them to look like eggs or a nest and put the little surprise treat inside. You can also add food colouring to make the eggs different colours.

They were a hit. Whenever people bit into the eggs they seemed to enjoy their little surprise. Here is a photo of the inside surprise (this is a photo I found online since I didn't get a chance to take one)

When I was looking for the above picture I found some of Hugo's 1st Easter (aka our little Easter Bunny from 2012).

 

What a difference a year makes.

 

12/52- Happy St. Patty's Day

Hope everyone had a good St. Patrick's Day! On St. Patty's day at our house we wear green. It's kind of become a tradition.

 

I'm not a beer drinker and had a headache most of the weekend (darn storm that was heading our way) so no alcohol for me. Instead I made a green snack for us to all enjoy! Hugo just had one bite as there was a wee bit too much food colouring ...

Green Rice Krispie Squares!

Hope everyone is having a good week!
