I think it&#8217;s my favorite holiday behind the 4th of July, Christmas, and New Years. Give me a solid hour and I&#8217;ll tell you all about why s&#8217;mores are the perfect dessert, but we could all just eat one instead &amp; realize why they&#8217;re so great! S&#8217;mores are an excellent dessert because you can take the time to perfectly torch your mallow, which as I just said, takes time! When it comes to me + desserts (yummy ones) time is my best friend, because if I could eat s&#8217;mores like cookies or brownies by just popping them in my mouth, I&#8217;d be 10 down before realizing it. True story. RD confession. That&#8217;s why I love s&#8217;mores! They take time, they&#8217;re uber gooey &amp; therefore take even more time to eat because you have to lick the melty chocolate and gooey mallows off your fingers and chin.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/eatrightutah.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC_0161.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1432\" title=\"DSC_0161\" src=\"http:\/\/eatrightutah.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC_0161-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Need another reason why they rock so much!
