Usually it goes something like this. Place the marshmallow on the end of a stick and hold it at just the right height and painstakingly rotate for 10 minutes. Then at the end of the ten minutes either the fire pops and blows coals all over it or the damn thing melts off the end into the fire. **** it! Light the damn thing on fire for 3 seconds and blow it out. Voila! You're done!
