Whenever the Cruz Family goes to Batangas, we love building bonfires at night. Here’s how you can create your own fun bonfire night:
1. Buy hotdogs, marshmallows, and long bbq sticks.
2. Gather dried leaves, sticks, and wood, and pile them up.
3. Get a newspaper and a match. Light the newspaper, and throw it into the gathered pile. To get the fire going, you can also try fanning it.
4. On sticks, cook your hotdogs and marshmallows.
5. Eat up and enjoy.
