My sister and I lived at our grandparents' house for a summer. They lived near a store that was open 24 hours. So sometimes we would go to the store at midnight, make Rice Krispies Treats, eat some out of the bowl and put the rest in a pan. The funny thing is, they were always gone by morning. Our grandpa would wake up in the middle of the night and eat them! Sometimes he would wake up while we were still making them, and the three of us would all sit around the table talking and eating treats.
