Fairy Tale Fridays: Fairy Tale Food & Fun Challenge!

Special Thanks to my Personal Faery Friend for the Button Art: Ye Olde Faery Shoppe 

This week for Fairy Tale Fridays, I've decided to take a little different route thanks to inspiration from Melissa of Imagination Soup!  Instead of reading a specific story this week, I have instead created a challenge for the next couple of weeks to share your fairy tale food and fun!  Here are a few ideas . . .

• Did you or a loved one dress up in a fairy tale character for Halloween this year?  If so, share some pictures of your creative costume!
• Have you ever participated in a fairy tale party?  How did you celebrate?
• What kind of food would you serve if you were hosting a fairy tale party?
• Are you feeling really ambitious?  Then, come up with your own fairy tale recipe, share some pics of the creation and the step-by-step recipe!
• Cook, fabricate, or develop your own unique take on the title, Fairy Tale Food & Fun!

In case you are in need of a starting point, here are a couple of fun links to get you started . . .

• Enchanting Edibles Make a Fairy-Tale Feast @ Taste of Home
• Fairy Tale Parties & Make Believe Fun @ Disney's Family Fun
• Maybe your library will have a copy of one of these . . . The Fairy Tale Cookbook by Sandre Moore OR Fairy Tale Feasts by Jane Yolen (Yolen actually has a whole series of cookbooks called Fairy Tale Cookbooks!)

With another crazy week of trying to recover from being gone for so long, I have not yet had the chance to actually fulfill this challenge myself.  BUT, you and I both have time!!  I encourage you to get those creative juices flowing and challenge yourself to a little fairy tale food and fun.  When you do, come back here and leave a link and I will highlight ALL entries in the Thanksgiving Special of Fairy Tale Fridays!!
