things on a stick ideas please

We have just blended two families so we are now me, OH, DS15, DS12 and DD 11 and all based in canada!!

We have been trying to establish some new family traditions here. The most successful of which so far is the "Friday Feast". The kids here finish school around 2.30pm, so we have been spending Friday afternoons making home made stuff for our feast. We then sit down together to enjoy the end of the week and the beginning of the weekend. It's been huge fun. Mass perogie making was a big hit. This week's pizza dogs and bisquick mini quiches were fab and will become a staple.


Next week the theme is " on a stick" we are all thinking hard, but I'd like to gather the collective wisdom of MSE OS and see what you think we should be having on a stick this Friday


thanks

  • For a sweet treat put some marshmallows on cocktail sticks. Dip into melted chocolate & sprinkle on some hundreds and thousands.
  • Drooling already!

    How about a chocolate fondue :) (or cheese, but probably not both - once I went to a party that started with a cheese fondue, then a meat fondue then a chocolate fondue - and that was way to much :) )

    Things on sticks:

    Chicken satay/kebabs
    Shish kebabs with lamb mince
    Veggie kebabs - try cubes of halloumi cheese with cherry tomatoes
    Not forgetting those old party favourites - cocktail sausages & cheese & pineapple hedgehog!
    Lollipops - I watched Rachel Allen make homemade ones on TV last week
    Sweet kebabs - grapes, pineapple, strawberries, banana, marshmallows, popcorn - basically anything that is firm enough to be cubed & pushed onto a stick.
