A good excuse to get up (or stay up) for a midnight snack

Yo....check it...here's a good excuse to get up and have a "midnight snack" or better yet stay up and sip some Bourbon on the patio...the forecast for early Saturday morning calls for a clear sky.

..."Some forecasts show 200 to 1,000 meteors an hour between 2 and 4 a.m. Eastern Time on Saturday...The best place to watch the shower will be east of the Mississippi River or in California. Precipitation over the Plains and Pacific Northwest could make viewing there difficult".

So, what'a an appropriate snack to go with that bourbon? A Mars bar or a Milky Way?

Hey !!! Great idea. We always have our weekly bonfires on Saturday night, I'm going to suggest my daughter use Milky Ways in her Smores ...and maybe I'll forgo the Bourbon in lieu of a pitcher of "Cosmos".

Dark chocolate pairs with bourbon. As does beef jerky. Or bacon. Or any combination of the preceding.

That Actually sounds like it could be a very interesting way to make a Smore! And I do like your drink suggestion!
