FMN: Jack the Giant Slayer

Tonight's movie was Jack the Giant Slayer! For out treat we ate "magic bean seeds" (also known as jelly beans 😉)

Season Finale of Game of Thrones, season 3

Since tonight is the finale episode of season 3 of Game of Thrones, it only seemed fitting to have a dinner fit for Westeros!

I used this recipe from the awesome Inn at the Crossroads for dinner. For dessert, I made lemon raspberry tarts. Since it was was Subday and I didn't want a lot of work, I bought mini tartlet cram users, filled with lemon pie filling, and topped with raspberries ( and dress lemon balm from my herb garden). We normally drink spiced wine with every episode but it seemed too hot for hot wine so we stuck with normal wine.

Yummy dinner and dessert! Now, let the Games begin!! 

FMN: Escape from Planet Earth

When I asked the big kids if they had any treat ideas for this movie, K-man immediately said, "slurpee!!".  Easy AND yummy - sounds perfect to me.  I also made "blue alien popcorn" from this recipe: http://life-should-be-delicious.blogspot.com/2011/07/jello-popcorn.html.

Kids loved the treats and the movie!
