Rockwall, TX (June 24, 2023) – For my latest episode of Disney Dinners, I hosted an Indiana Jones celebration to commemorate the release of the brand-new film. I changed my dining-room into an Egyptian temple for Indy to check out, finish with a stone, cobwebs, snake decals, a hieroglyphic table runner, ancient map napkins, and Indy’s renowned hat as the focal point.
Enchanted Farmhouse made incredible custom-made Indy indications for me that are now available on her Etsy store, and regional Dallas craftsmen Marbleized Ceramics handmade holy grails for the celebration that took the program when I served Last Crusade Sangria.
The menu has a few of the most thematic meals to date! I served tasty packed “good dates” and “bad dates” as an homage to Raiders of the Lost Ark. Then I made fast and simple Snake Pit Pasta with burrata stones concealed within.
For dessert, I made lovable Chocolate Boulders filled with ”dirt” no-bake cheesecake. It’s similar to having supper in Adventureland!
