I am running out of tricky menu ideas. We had to get a little creative this year. Taco Salads, cupcakes, and juice were on the menu. The taco salads were made out of waffle cone taco bowls. The meat was chocolate ice cream. The lettuce and cheese were dyed coconut and the olives were pieces of black licorice. The cupcakes were a repeat menu item made of meat and dyed potatoes for frosting. The juice was also a repeat but we mixed it up a bit by having the jello "juice" hardened in the pitcher rather than individual cups. To me April Fools dinner is a lot of work. Looking up ideas, adding more to my list of groceries, and then watching my kids eat dessert first and not want to eat any of the dinner food. That being said, it is SOOO worth it. There is nothing more hilarious than watching a little kid pull a trick on their Dad. They totally love it. Rusty does a great job of hamming it up and the pictures are worth any extra time it took to fix the meal.
