9. CAN's BBQ Event


Going through a midterm-week with no more than four hours sleep everyday and cramming for exams, I was extremely exhausted. When I was done the whole week, I went back home to checked my mailbox as a daily routine, and then I found there would be a BBQ event holding in two hours by CAN “Chinese American Network” ---- a student association that I involved in. At the moment, I decided to go without hesitate.

The BBQ event was hold at Father Hennepin Park where located along Mississippi river. It wasn’t a place you would pay attention while people were passing by, but there was no doubt that it was a good spot for BBQ and fishing. When we got there, the BBQ was already started. Some people were eating around the fire, some people were chatting around and meeting new friends, others were playing frisbee and football on the grass. I was on a diet last week. But actually, I ate a lot on Friday night


While I was about to leave, someone told me to get some s’mores. “S’more? ” I asked what is it. My friend Heather told me that was a kind of dessert made of three simple treats: marshmallow, chocolate and graham crackers.

Firstly, toast marshmallow above the campfire still the surface turn brown and molten inside. Secondly, place a piece of chocolate and toasted marshmallow in graham crackers. Finally, eat as eating a burger. It tasted so soft and sweet with the smile of chocolate. Besides, I’ve heard the name of s’more came from a camp, when a girl asked her father if she could have some more food. Soon I asked for more s’more as expected.


Luckily I went to a fun and delicious BBQ which was the best ending of a tough week!
