KristineIN Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 We are having a game night in April at our church and we are supposed to take a snack and drink to share. I am struggling to come up with something. Any ideas? Thanks, kristine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josie Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 I suppose I am boring, but easy is almost always my motto! I would take something simple like popcorn and lemonade. I am sure some of the more creative ladies will have some much more original suggestions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unicorn. Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 My kids love baby carrots (with or without ranch dressing), grapes, pretzels, goldfish crackers, cookies (homeade or store bought), and for a drink I would take lemonade or kool-aid. We love the invisible kool-aid, and it doesn't stain! HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurel Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Popcorn, fruit plate, cheese and crackers, mixed nuts, chex mix. For a drink, I really like 100% fruit juice mixed with sparkling water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unsinkable Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 How about mini-sandwiches (make any kind of sammy and cut into quarters) and little bottles of water? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KristineIN Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 Thanks for the suggestions. I have a good recipe for a cheese ball. I think I'll do something healthy to drink, I hate all the "sugary" drinks that show up. We have one couple, I love them dearly but they always bring Sunny Delight to Bible study for the kids. That stuff is :tongue_smilie: Kristine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmoira Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 guacamole and chips... disappears first every time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Mungo Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I usually go with one of the following: cheese, fruit, pretzels guacamole, pico de gallo, chips pita bread triangles, hummus, this olive/tomato/onion salad/relish thing I make eta: I always bring orange juice when I have to bring a kid snack and drink. Oh my gosh, my kids never have sugary drinks (well, with the exception of the very occasional yoo-hoo). I hate when they're put in situations with tons of other kids and are sugared up. Yikes.

KristineIN Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 guacamole and chips... disappears first every time Yeah, we try and make our kids think that guacamole isn't any good, but for some reason they just don't believe us. :D Kristine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer in MI Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Yeah, we try and make our kids think that guacamole isn't any good, but for some reason they just don't believe us. :D Kristine LOL! We do the same thing! Darn smart kids!! For the snack, I'd take chips, salsa and sour cream (and guacamole if you have any to spare!). I bet it'd be gone VERY fast!!!

Melt almond bark according to package directions and pour over cereal/nut mixture. Mix thoroughly and spread onto two, wax-paper lined, rimmed cookie sheets. Let cool and break into pieces. Store in a covered tin. OR a variation UPPITY WHITE TRASH!!! Substitute 2 cups of salted cashews for the unsalted peanuts, and substitute 12 oz. of white chocolate for half of the white almond bark (thus, 12 oz. white chocolate, 12 oz. white almond bark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
