A Night at the Circus

You know the saying "Go big or go home"?  Well Corinne and Alyssa took that to heart big time with their circus dinner! 

The invites were adorable and came with a bag of peanuts.


This sign greeted us as we came in the door for the evening. 


The decor really was out of this world!

Our salad for the night was Chinese Acrobat Salad with Wontons 



It was served with a frozen Banana Slush 



The main course was delicious!  Asian Turkey Meatballs with Soy Sesame Sauce,  Pork Satay with Thai Peanut Sauce, Greek Gyro Chicken with Tzatziki Yogurt Sauce, Bangin Shrimp with Thai Chili Mayo, Carmelized Pineapple, Sweet Coconut Rice and Roasted Asparagus.  


As if they hadn't already put on a big enough show, they finished the night with...
Funnel Cakes, Monkey tails and Carmel Apple Slices.



Our take homes for the night were a picture frame, a container of candy concessions,  and a carton of homemade Rocky Road Ice Cream





The hosts were lucky to have Alisha help in the kitchen that night!



We'd all be part of this circus again ANY DAY!!
