This week, we enjoyed Alice in Wonderland. This meant that on Friday, LittleCGC and I visited Grandma so that she could help us make some cookies. When we did this movie night 5 years ago, that was the one and only time I have made these fancy sugar cookies. On that occasion, I borrowed everything from mom including her book with all the tips and instructions. This time, we just decided to let her help us, and that she did. LittleCGC was also a big helper.
On Sunday, LittleCGC also wanted to help make the dinner.
We fried up some chicken bites with an oyster sauce. Patrick was very confused when he saw the oyster sauce and I said it was because of the walrus and carpenter scene. When he still looked confused, I told him he needed to watch the movie with us and he did. We also had Cheshire smiley potatoes with bread and butterflies.
LittleCJC loved it at sight, but LittleCGC freaked out a bit when she spotted the eyes on her bread. Once we took those off, then she was fine and both girls surprised me by trying and liking the oyster sauce. In fact, this meal was pretty easy and very tasty. For this week's beverage, I obviously served tea. LittleCJC was surprised by her first sip, but then she thought it was great. LittleCGC on the other hand, declared the tea yucky and didn't try a second sip.
For dessert, we of course had the delicious cookies.
Overall, it was a great evening!
