Joe and I along with a group of our friends are very big
Harry Potter fans. Very big Harry Potter fans. We have all read the books and
seen the movies multiple times. We decided it would be fun to get together for
an entire weekend to watch the movies and play some Harry Potter trivia. For
Christmas, Joe bought me the Harry Potter cookbook so I thought it would be fun
to create a menu for the weekend that centered around food themes that appeared
in the books and “British” food.
We all had a blast and got through most of the movies in a
36 hour period. It was such a success that our friends are begging us to do it
again. We have met some new people that
haven’t been exposed to Harry Potter so we will have to initiate them into the
wonderful world of HP in the near future.
We served lunch, dinner and dessert on Saturday and
breakfast and lunch on Sunday. The menu included:
Saturday Lunch

salad with tomato on cocktail rye bread
Egg salad on
cocktail pumpernickel bread
