step 1: acquire some decently large rocks and/or bricks as well as a big bucket, some lighter fluid, matches, graham crackers, bars of milk chocolate, marshmallows, and some cheap wooden skewers. step 2: dig a nice lil pit somewhere outdoors, preferably away from trees/dead foliage, and fill the bucket with the dirt you dug out. step 3: fill pit with undesirable fundy paraphernalia and line its edges with the bricks, tearing pages out of your least favorite and crumpling them up into tinder. step 4 and the order is important for this and the next one: douse the paraphernalia/tinder with the lighter fluid from a safe distance. step 5: once the bonfire-to-be is sufficiently doused and the lighter fluid container, empty or otherwise, is stored safely far away from the pit, light a bunch of matches and drop them into the pit from a safe distance a few feet away. step 6: once the fire is sufficiently going, skewer some marshmallows and toast them over the fire. use them, the crackers, and chocolate to make some s'mores. step 7: once you're done having your fun, douse the remaining fire with the bucket of dirt, packing it back into the hole as desired. bricks/rocks may be left behind if you wish or take them with you in the bucket. step 8: have a bucket/bricks tied to what is hopefully a fond memory of a bonfire and s'mores.

depending on the amount of paraphernalia you have, you may need to bring some extra firewood (or dig a bigger pit) which you can usually get at a hardware store along with the big bucket, lighter fluid, and some matches. probably have to go to a grocery/convenience store to get the s'mores stuff. you also don't have to use lighter fluid if you aren't comfortable with it, most hardware stores also sell firestarters for such fires which are safe and easy to use (they look and work like big chewy matches though they usually sell them in bulk so you might end up with a lot of them). as far as safety is concerned, the bucket of dirt should be sufficient for dousing the fire and while not necessary, if you don't like the idea of smoke inhalation the hardware store should also sell filter masks which are usually used during woodwork and other dust producing practices. if any concerns remain, bring up that you're having a small bonfire to one of the employees at the store and they should be able to fill you in on anything i've (probably) missed.

You can get something like this for cheap:

Or the masks they use in hospitals work pretty well.

A respirator is probably overkill unless you have a medical condition.

Have you tried a saline nasal rinse at the end of the day? Works wonders if you can keep up with it. I usually do one at night and one in the morning to flush all the crap out.
