The foodie edition

Okay, with Christmas just around the corner a good part of my time is wrapped up with food – reading recipes, planning meals,  grocery shopping, going out with friends for meals, baking, eating, eating and more eating – you get the picture.

So, I got to thinking, what would a Christmas day meal look like based on children’s books titles?

Here’s what I've come up with:

Breakfast: 

       Dancing Pancakes (Spinelli) 

          OR Unlucky Charms (Rex)

Appetizers:  

       Nuts to You (Perkins)  

AND/OR 

  Toads on Toast (Bailey)

Christmas dinner:

       Octopus Soup (Mayer)

    Tumbleweed Stew (Crummel)

   Creepy Carrots (Reynolds)

       Little Green Peas (Baker)

        Mice and Beans (Ryan)

Dessert:  

        Ugly Pie (Wheeler) 

OR

   Sweet Dream Pie (Wood)

 OR

   Fortune Cookies of Weevil (Reynolds) .

 (I just couldn't make up my mind.)

And,

 I’d serve  Everything on a Waffle (Horvath) – of course.

Not necessarily traditional Christmas fare but it would give guests lots to talk about.

How about you?  Any ideas for your perfect holiday meal?

Happy New Year, Everyone!
