If you don't have a roaring log fire to toast ur marshmallows on - try putting one marshmallow in the microwave for 10 seconds....

It puffs up like shaving foam! Fantastic!!!!

Your DP is probably an angel in disguise, you seem very lucky and I am very jealous!

He sounds very nice - my dh is lovely too, not really a cook but very content to clear up my cooking mess

light corn syrup was optional, DP used demarara [sp] sugar

I'm just impressed that you have three packets of gelatin and some light corn syrup waiting in your cupboard for marshmallow making!

He supports Oxfam, amnesty and the National trust, loves going to the theatre and art exhibits, cooks and eats organic and grows all our own herbs.
I am planning to clone him and sell him on Ebay.

Mine is too, but I never get marshmellows. Am off to nag him now about his shortcomings.
