Awkward Accessories
I was around 10 at a 4th of July cookout. Everyone’s having a good time. So my cousin breaks out a bag of marshmallows for us to start roasting and obviously nothing capitalizes on a cookout like making s’mores.
But, no sooner than we get the marshmallows on the sticks then do we hear all sorts of sirens going off. So, three of us, ages between 10-15 go running through the woods towards his neighbors house to discover that it is, in fact, on fire.
I have no idea how the fire started or if the house was saved. But what I will never forget is the mother/wife of the home’s mortified look when she saw three young boys standing next to her burning home holding marshmallows on sticks. ghostofone1
