Cheese grater of peace


Today was Munchkin Day, otherwise known as Aunt Denise's Birthday.
Happy Birthday 'Nise!
So we got hooked on a funny card game while camping this year called Munchkin. Denise wanted to play tonight for her birthday, so we gathered some friends, drank rootbeer and played some boots of butt-kicking madness for a few hours tonight. The game is like a Dungeons and Dragons parody (I'm told) and provides many laughs while opening doors to find monsters and win with 10 hard-fought points. You defeat monsters, defend and dole out curses, collect weapons and trade items like those featured on our tribute cake.
This is a collaboration between me and the Mister. We picked several of the funny weapons from the game and molded them out of fondant. Feast your eyes on rat-on-a-stick, the Gentlemen's club, boots of butt-kicking, the sneaky "B" sword, the cheese grater of peace, the horny helmet, and the chainsaw of bloody dismemberment. Denise loved it and the kids are drooling over the fun figures made out of "sugar playdough." Logan really wants to eat them.
A little Bananagrams fun at Grams house for Denise's family party. It's another fun game for all ages. Great for the kids to practice spelling and learn more words.
