Last-Minute New Year’s Eve Recipe Ideas
Yesterday…I heard on the radio, that 87% of parents are ringing in the New Year at home, with the kids. We are doing a little of both. My husband and I are going out for an early dinner and then heading right back home to beat the kids, and Nana in a rip-roaring Minute To Win It contest. I’ll be sure to post pictures of the games we used and let you know if they are game-worthy. Today, I am going to gather some supplies for the games, and while I’m out, I might as well grab some ingredients for these adorable and delicious looking New Year’s Eve recipes:
