Pirate Party




We had a very exciting pirate adventure week to end our schoolyear. At the end of the week I served up grilled tilapia, buried treasure rolls stuffed with creamy veggies, white rice, and freshly grilled vegetables. We finished our meal with a treasure cake, which was a loaf cake filled with jolly rancher jewels.(along with coins and a string of pearls for effect) Some crushed graham cracker sand made it look like it had just been unearthed! Arrrrrrrg!

Ahoy, matey



It's not very often that I get to pack a lunch for my kids, but the boys started a Mother's Day Out program and it gave me a chance to pack this themed meal for my favorite pirates! Peanut butter fish shaped sandwiches, goldfish, shark fruit snacks, and blue punch in a perfectly divided container set their day afloat!

All cutters used in this blog can be found in this wonderful set!
