Mystery Supper

We hosted the 3rd Annual Mystery Supper a couple nights ago. It was once again a success! For those of you who don't know what a mystery supper is - it is a supper where we create a menu with code names, including the utensils. Our guests then get to decide the order of their meal, hopefully matching up the utensils with the food that requires them! It's lots of fun! This year for appetizers we had egg rolls, fruit salad and butternut squash soup. For the entree - sweet and sour chicken drumsticks, potato wedges and broccoli and for dessert we made ice cream sandwiches.
Here is the menu, can you decode it? :)






As requested, here is the menu in the proper order, with the proper names!


Appetizer # 1

- Southwestern Egg Rolls - Mexican Poncho

Appetizer # 2

- Fruit Salad on a skewer, served with dip - Pogo Stick

Appetizer # 3

- Butternut Squash Soup - piscine d'orange
- Soup spoon - Canoe Companions


Entree

- Sweet and Sour Chicken Drumsticks - Keeping the Beat
- Sweet Potato Wedges - Crescent Moons (we should have called these Full Moons, since we changed the recipe but the menus were already printed!)
- Broccoli - Deciduous Wonder
- Fork - Twisted Sister
- Knife - Smoke Stacks

Dessert

- Ice Cream Sandwich made with Double Chocolate Chip Cookies - Hockey Puck


It is really not hard to do, just come up with menu that possible to eat without utensils and give everything a crazy name! The more creative the better!
