Mulan Night
Last week we had a very fun time watching Mulan and eating Chinese.
We made a menu with suggestions from the Family Theme night thread on the Disboards, and also used a few ideas from the Chinese New Year page on Family Fun.
Decorated with lanterns, fish, take-out containers, and print-outs of Mulan characters.
Fortune cookies were dessert, but we also made the Chinese Food cupcakes that I've been wanting to try.
Although I didn't get a picture of them, we had three Chinese soft drinks, orange, lychee, and peach. The drinks were awesome and tasted really good too. They were in a can that I've never seen...it felt like a water bottle. It still had a normal can top that flipped open normally.
Learning a few new things about Chinese culture was fun. The movie was great too!
