It's been delightful having my Favorite Sister here for the holidays. She and Miss Munchkin made dinner for us on Christmas Day. The menu was based on the song, The Twelve Days of Christmas. The girls planned, shopped and prepared it all by themselves. When it came time to serve the meal, they burst into song and unveiled each dish as they sang the corresponding line in the song.
Here are a few of the highlights:
"Turtle"
Calling Birds (bird nest cookies - get it?)
French hens
Geese-a-laying, of course
marshmallows for the hot chocolate (Maids-a-Milking)
Lord's a Leaping (rich, royal fudge)
fried doughnuts for the Golden Rings
And a "Cornish hen in a broccoli tree"
(with pears on the side)
Dinner was delicious.
Next year's Dinner: "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer"

Perfect serving of 'clever' with a dash of 'hilarious'... gonna file this one away to copy cat in the future, snicker!
Love the family fun, but ohh I love the bokeh on the fudge, girl that looks so good! and the last picture bokeh is gorgeous too!
I love this! So cute and such a sweet idea. Way to go girls!
I'm sure you were joking, but if not, I can't wait to see what next years dinner consists of....I'm sure too much egg nog will be involved!!!
