Dinner and a Movie: Lady and the Tramp
By Mindy McIntosh-Shetter
Dinner and a movie has become a family tradition that we all look forward to every summer.
There is nothing like spreading the sheet over the fence and projecting our movie or choice on the homemade screen.
We can relive or introduce the time of drive-ins without leaving the backyard.
But this year is different.
My children are bringing their “special” friends to share our family tradition. I look forward to the new recipes, new movies, and new memories that these “special” friends will bring to our movie night. But most of all I am looking forward to my kids’ calling from their own homes wanting to know when “Family Movie Night” is going to be and helping them pass on the tradition of “Family Movie Night” to their own children.
Below is what we have planned for our Lady and the Tramp movie night. But be creativity in your own movie night that is how memories are made.
Snacks: Carmel Corn, Gummy Worms, and Italian Ice
Drinks: Sparkling grape juice with dinner and Lemonade with Basil frozen Ice Cubes
Entree: Homemade Spaghetti and Meatballs with Garlic Bread and Mixed Breed Salad (mixed green salad)
