The entire Disney Gang all make for great entertainment separately and since there are just so many Disney movies, why not simply celebrate all of them in one party. This allows for a huge number of different ways to have your themed party. You could simply decorate with posters and watch the various Disney movies out there, or you could focus on a specific group, such as pirate themed or space themed, maybe even something as simple as just your favorites. You could just have the main group of Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and Pluto. Watching a variety of episodes all the way from Steam Boat Willie on the most recent episodes. Thought with so many classics, you won’t be able to finish them all in a single day, or week for that matter.

Christmas has always been a time for family and wonderful food. You will find there are many traditions regarding the typical Christmas menu. If you’re preparing your family’s Christmas dinner, here are a couple of ideas:

Let’s face it, somedays you just want a meal like mom used to make (or dad, depending on your upbringing). But that doesn’t necessarily translate into wanting to whip up the dish for yourself. After all, part of eating a “comforting” memory is that someone we love served it too us. Whether it was because we were suffering from an awful head cold, the flu, got fired from a job or were dumped by a person we thought was our soulmate, having a person who cared serve us something soothing helped-alot.

Sesame Street is a favorite in our household as it is in millions of others. Still running after decades on public television this classic show was and is still working to educate your children while entertaining them with interesting puppet characters. If the hullabaloo in past years over the Tickle Me Elmo dolls and other Sesame Street toys is any indication this show is extremely popular with today’s kids. You’ll want a party menu that’s just as popular and tasty too.
