Redneck wiener roast
Bet it works for marshmellows too.

Just make sure the tines of the rake are free of any pesticides, dirt's ok - just no commercial nerve agents. As to the marshmallows, burnt or just golden brown?

My grandpa always said a little dirt never hurt anyone. Marshmellows, semi-burnt on the outside...soft on the inside.

pardon me, ma'am, but ii don't see the redneck in it...that appears to be a lawn rake...now if it were a hay fork, pitch fork or something like that, then i would concur that we were looking at a genuine redneck wiener roaster...what you have there, ma'am, is a Yankee imposter...

that's what lawnmowers are for...run over 'em, mulch 'em...besides, we use rakes for that...heavy tined rakes for pine needles and such as that...
can't say i remember ever raking anything other than magnolia leaves...picked up a buncha pine cones in my time, though...

Ahh much more efficient with the use of the lawnmower. We had to rake when I was a young lass, and then burn 'em. Still can remember that smell. Not too many pine cones in my little space of Yankee-land.

Steve-
the avatar looks familiar - I seem to remember it as a drawing in one of the HQ's can't remember if it was Co, BN, or Grp at Devens....
Plenty of pinecones at Devens - and leaves, although there were considerably more pinecones at Bragg.
Gypsy-
You called Steve a boat with yawl, y'all is people - actually I think you used yaawl - which makes him a pointed object used by boat people while working with leather - hmmmm, interesting - Dr. Freud, got any insights to this little slip?
You did describe the perfect open fire marshmallow. Dirt's fine, eaten plenty in my time, it's those nasty pyrithrins and such that can really ruin your week, convulsing, foaming, respiratory failure - no fun eating nerve agents, plus they taste bad.

I have to dissagree with you. If it were a Yankee rake it would be plastic.

According to the url extension in the picture, the kid's from Hungary. Looking at the complexion, the clothing, the car, (and the appetite), I'd believe it.

Yeah yeah, I had "ya'll" but changed it to exagerate the pronunciation of the yaaaaall sound via the printed word.
'sides what's wrong with leather?

Nothing is wrong with leather, as long as you're wearing a leather teddy...
Goodbye gentlemen, I think I've just committed suicide - If Ms. G doesn't get me, one of our other 'demure' XXs will.
