(s'meaches.)


{for summer's end}
s'meaches

peaches
brown sugar
cayenne pepper
marshmellows
graham crackers
skewers

to begin, slice as many peaches you would like. now mix about two dashes of cayenne pepper into a bowl of brown sugar. you can add more or less cayenne depending on how hot you would like your s'meach. light a bonfiire. take your peach slice and dip it into the sugary mixture, coating it completely. 


now place your sweet peach onto the skewer, and top it off with a big marshmallow. you are now ready to roast. some of the brown sugar may drip off from your peach, this is okay. let the marshmallow brown, then place it and the peach between two graham crackers. 


 you've now made s'meaches.
