As I said yesterday, we have a fantastic parade in our little town for Halloween. All the kids get dressed up, parade down the main street for all to see, go to the judging area, then get a big bag of goodies. This is the beauty of living in a small town...tradition.
Our whole family had a fantastic time dressing up as the characters from the Wizard of Oz and hopefully (fingers crossed) we'll win a prize! Here's a picture from the festivities...
*You may notice the the Cowardly Lion is missing. The dog had a wardrobe malfunction. He just didn't want to keep his costume on so we were fine with letting him sit out the parade.
Our main entree is a Trader Joe's Pimento Cheese Sandwich. Molly requested this and we were so pleased because it was nice and easy for us. We used Trader Joe's pimento cheese spread on a Trader Joe's middle eastern flat bread and cut it into triangles. This is always a hit!
Our fruit side is a Granny Smith apple. We sliced most of these up and then cut out a jack o'lantern face on a quarter of it just to keep with the Halloween theme.
Our vegetable side is mini peppers. Again, we sliced up most of these. We used a yellow and an orange pepper. Then, we cut out a jack o'lantern face in half of one of the orange ones.
Our dairy side is strawberry yogurt. Molly lights up every time we tell her that this is in her lunch.
Finally, we added a little something from the goody bag. Yes, we usually wait until Friday for a fun treat, but we decided that since she was a real trooper for the long parade, she deserved a mini Kit Kat. ☺
