Family Fun Night

For family fun night we like to do challenges. We base them loosely off the show the Apprentice. This week the kids challenge was to create a dessert. They would be judged on taste, originality, creativity, appearance. They also had to do a presentation that sold us on their product. That would also be judged on originality, creativity, and actual presentation. This time is was girls against the boys.



They were given a budget of $15.00 and twenty minutes at the grocery store to purchase their ingredients.


They went to work creating their desserts. The boys made "twisted ice cream croissants". Which was croissants filled with vanilla ice cream that had peanut butter m&ms crushed in it.




The girls made sundaes.

I wish I had taken more pictures but the camera died so this was all I got. The boys won for originality, and their presentation won by a landslide. I thought the boys were gonna take it. But when Will and I sat down to judge all the criterias it wasnt that clear cut. The boys presentation was great but the girls taste was by far better and they had a better food presentation. It came down to a tie and we had to determine that the tie breaker had to be the product which came down to which one would we want to eat again, so the girls won! They were super happy especially Graisan because this was her first win. Aly is 2 - 0. Their prizes were a movie of their choice, dessert of their choice, and they got to give Will and I one of their chores. I got laundry which wasnt so bad and Will got dishes (I was glad I didnt get that). The boys were mad but they sucked it up after about 10 minutes. Over all it was an awesome time and Im already thinking of what the next challenge will be!
