Prom Dinner!

We hosted a Prom dinner for our babysitter and her group date. It was a blast! Below is my Prom approved and decorated preschool room - all preschool paraphernalia (thank you spell check!) conveniently stashed in the closet under the stairs! - done by the talented Jamie (to the right of me in the middle, who actually made the flowers on the table out of tissue paper!) and the amazing Cindy (to the left, also mother of the babysitter!)

 

Now you see the bustling kitchen where I (in charge of food of course cause what else are you going to do with a last name like mine! :) am cooking up a storm and my waiter recruits are waiting quite impatiently for the next course.

On the Menu!
Appetizer: Bruschetta

 Main Course: Chicken Cordon Bleu with rolls and Sugar Carrots

 Dessert: Chocolate Mousse in Chocolate cups

and YES those cups are edible and YES I did make them and YES they were SO FUN! Try it, you might like it! Melt chocolate. Paint the inside of a cupcake wrapper with a basting brush and the chocolate. Freeze until solid. Paint a second coat just on the sides (the chocolate kind of slides down in the freezing process so the bottom is nice and solid but the sides are brittle without the second coat.) Freeze about an hour. Remove and peel (carefully) off the cupcake wrapper. Fill and enjoy!!
