Winner Dish and Winner Playdate

First up: carryout an epic playdate for about 30 neighborhood friends in a rotating neighborhood playdate.  I had the first of the four 45 minute time slots. We did an obstacle course with 7 different stations: run through the tires, crab walk across a ladder, climb through a tunnel, rope swing, tetherball, summersault on the mat, and lastly jumping jacks (according to your age: one for each year.) It was super fun! The kids went on to other houses for water games, lunch, popsicles and jumping castles.  Super fun.  The day ended with a dryer that is now working (ten points to Ryan for checking to see if the breaker needed to be tripped) and with a tasty night spent with my favorite culinary friends at our neighborhood cooking group, Iron Chef Bountiful. I won the Gold trophy to boot.



Puff pastry with "ICB" on top. Cheesy.
The theme ingredient was Mango, so I made a Mango Brie Bliss with a Mango Curry Chutney.  The Chutney was to die for.

The playdate began with a rousing game of duck, duck, goose.
