I did, thanks! Hope you did too.

It's been so dry lately, but I've been wanting to start a fire to make some fire roasted hot dogs and s'mores.

That sounds really nice. I enjoy roasting stuff over fires but never can be bothered to get a fire set up... Fortunately, I have a friend who has an awesome outdoor firepit situation so I might try to talk her into hosting, lol.

Yes! I'm house-sitting for my mom and she has a fantastic fire pit on a house surrounded by forests and mountains. It's very easy to start a fire but I know there was a fire ordinance...

Roast corn and sweet potatoes are also so good! What do you like to cook on a fire?

Oh damn, that sounds so tempting. Good luck retaining your willpower!

I usually just stick with the basic hot dogs + smores combo. (I'm someone who's too impatient/careless to get the marshmallow right and I usually end up torching it, haha.) But roast corn is really good! Maybe I'll remember to bring corn next time now.

I put butter and salt on the corn and then wrap them up in tinfoil before throwing on the coals. Definitely give it a try!
