Saturday night kicked off our families monthly dinner get togethers. My mom had the idea of getting the family together once a month for a make at home dinner. Each month mom would cook a different meal { I don't cook} and I would party it up {something I LOVE to do}. Saturday night was homemade pizza. I actually helped {gasp}.
We made two pizza's. I made the pepperoni. I wanted to add mushrooms and olives all over it but no one else likes mushrooms so I just put them on one little corner.
The second pizza is a chicken garlic. I would have loved to have put spinach and sun dried tomato's on this. But again, no one else would have liked it. My mom did add onions to half of it.
Here's where my fun comes in. The concession stand. Anyone can do this very inexpensively and it adds some fun to the family movie night. The table cloth and big popcorn bucket came from Dollar Tree. The candy and little popcorn buckets were from Target. Everything was a $1 each. The cupcakes? Hang on, I'm getting to those.
I saw these cupcakes on Under the Table and Dreaming . So cute. I HAD to make them. Since there are no party stores near me I couldn't get cute popcorn cupcake wrappers, so I improvised like Under the Table and Dreaming and used paper from Michael's. The paper was only . 20 cents Woo Hoo! When I made the cupcakes my man said they looked great but really SWEET! And what's wrong with that :) My family all ate one and said they were good. So next time you have a movie night, make some popcorn cupcakes.
Dinner and a movie was fun and I look forward to next months meal. What party fun awaits?
