Marshmallow No.1

Marshmallow No.1

by Mike Pitzer, 2018

At the end of every Club Apache BBQ, the Dads would build a small bonfire by the water and all of the kids would gather to roast marshmallows. The easiest way to do this was to use a bent clothes hanger. I still wonder if our parents ever realized that the ends of those metal hangers would start to glow when the kids would hold ’em to the fire a bit too long. I mean seriously, — metal, fire, kids?
