Do you or your family make any special dishes for the holidays?

I don’t usually go in for holidays. However, I am not one to say no to good food. My mother has a number of holidays, in addition to the standard set, that she will celebrate throughout the year.

  • Star Wars Day (May 4th)
  • Matrix Day (Mar 31st)
  • Bilbo and Frodo’s Birthday (Sept 22)
  • Harry Potter Day

Since this is a food related question I think it best to respond with pictures.

Halloween Feast (Updated photos)

Every year, we have a Harry Potter movie marathon and feast leading up to Halloween on October 31st.

This year, we had broccoli in a lemon butter sauce, candied carrots, cauldron cakes, coconut treats, toffee, a platter of fried chicken legs; some were dipped in a spicy Korean sauce, others were sourdough breaded, and some were baked.

Drinks included Butterbeer, rum, and apple cider. For dessert, we ate Jell-O and chocolate pudding, topped with fresh sliced strawberries. Caramel popcorn balls and toasted pumpkin seeds were my favorite.
