Last week was 101 Dalmatians for our Disney dinner. For the main idea, I repeated my old 101 Dalmatians dinner since I've already learned LittleCJC doesn't remember those at all. We had spotted waffles with spotted milk. I also added dog tails, aka bannanas.
I let LittleCGC help spot the milk. Can you guess which glass she did, lol?
I couldn't help but smile at her excitement to help.
I also attempted a new dessert, Cruella Deville Meringue cookies. Here's the beautiful example I found online.
I have never made meringue cookies before and I had no idea what I was doing. I don't know if my peaks were stiff enough, or if it was just that I couldn't find my nice star tip, but here is what mine turned out like.
So first of all, I couldn't find black food coloring so I mixed what I had at home. Then I couldn't find my star tip, but I found a cheap plastic one and tried that. In all honesty, I'm surprised these didn't turn out worse than they did. In fact, the girls loved these.
I don't know why, but I didn't expect them to like them and instead, they devoured them.
I also made some puppy chow in case the cookies were a complete loss. In hindsight, it was a very sweet dinner, but also a success.
