Thoroption

My parents leave for the Netherlands in less than one month. For their going away party, they've asked my siblings to make dishes from their mission.

I thought about making rainbow jell-o or blue jell-o with a pineapple equal sign in the middle (or maybe white knot cookies or something) , but I don't think it would go over well.

  1. Go for the rainbow jello I say. Excellent idea. :)

  2. Do the cookies. White knots will probably be completely lost on that crowd. They'll just think it's cute decoration and you'll be able to snicker for weeks afterward.

  3. Agree with Alan, subtlety is key.

  4. I laughed out loud when I read this post -- and I vote blue jello with pineapple. :D (only semi-seriously)

  6. Go for something more original. If the church wouldn't let you go on a mission, do something that shows your own mission-- something in the shape of a pair of Red Shoes (thank you Michael Powell), or a pair of tap shoes, or a dessert in the shape of a tango couple in the midst of a dip.
