Robyn is also a marshmallow expert.

Do people all over the geohashing world toast marshmallows? Robyn once introduced some Germans in a rented Winnebago to the concept of toasting marshmallows, so just in case, I'll explain that a marshmallow is a squishy foamed candy, powdery on the outside and sticky on the inside, made mostly of sugar and gelatin. You can eat them raw, but mostly they are used in baking, or toasted over campfires. You put one on a stick and hold it over the coals (it's not actually in the flames as it appears to be in this picture) and it slowly turns brown on the outside and gets warm and gooey in the middle. If you get it a little too hot, it bursts into flames and then you have to blow out the fire and peel off the burned part before eating. But accidentally flaming marshmallows is part of the fun.
