That accounts for two people: Mohammed Khan and Angel Castro. Honestly! Mohammed Khan is an agronomist and Angel Castro was my eighth grade Spanish teacher. Would you people think it was office humour if I told you that Caroline Kennedy was my grandmother, Bobby Kennedy was my aunt, that John Kennedy is my brother, and that Edward Kennedy would be my other brother if he hadn't turned out to be my sister?

The staff is provided with something that looks to me like a butane-fuelded can. There is no odor emitted so I'm not really sure what fuels the small flame. Roasting marshmallows takes more time with this method but it sure is safer than an open bonfire in the hospital. MJ. The staff is provided with something that looks to me like a butane-fuelded can.

I volunteer at one of the Children's Hospitals in Atlanta in the ER Dept. About once a month or so the the ER staff is provided marshmallows in the breakroom to roast. Sometimes the fixings for s'mores are available. A silly and inexpensive thing to do but it truly is a morale booster and don't you know the staff in an ER Dept., expecially in a children's hospital needs to have their spirits lifted. ?
