1) I love this movie. The first time I saw it, honestly, I said "Eh." But the more we watch it, the more I adore it. Rumor is that they are making a sequel and I'm not thrilled with the premise because I love this one so much. If I could just have a Baymax that lived in my house that could come and be my healthcare companion, life would be so much easier and I swear that I would always be satisfied with my care.
2) We were having sushi. Duh. So, no cooking for mommy! It will probably go down in our record books as the most expensive Disney movie night of all, but it was well worth it!
Note: If we were to do this one again at some point, I would change the menu to make Aunt Cass' face-melting wings. #missedopportunity (or not... cuz... SUSHI)
The Cubster has been eating eel avocado rolls for years, ever since we asked him what he wanted to eat for dinner one night and he said he wanted to eat eel. It was during an ocean animal phase and, what can I say, it was an excellent excuse to get sushi. So he's big in to it, but this was Lady A's first experience. I got her an avocado cucumber roll and she basically picked the avocado out and left the rest on her plate. (We ultimately made her chicken nuggets.) Cubby was obsessed with us eating Wasabi with our sushi, which I would not do, but Husband always does, so Cubby was satisfied.
A quick google search found me a recipe for Honey Lemon(ade). Easy peasy.
When we decided on this movie, Cubby said we should have marshmallows for Baymax. I loved that idea and thought let's actually make Baymax out of marshmallows! My little engineer did an excellent job of creating Baymax out of regular and mini marshmallows. A black food marker with the assist for the face and- voila.
I wanted to keep things a little fresher this week. The last few weeks have been heavy on the sugar and crazy desserts! In the movie, Wasabi slices an apple using his plasma rays. So I cut a couple of apples as thin as I could by hand. Cubby felt that I didn't do as good of a job as Wasabi. I said, "Sorry I don't have a plasma ray" (5 year olds, amirite?).
We were unexpectedly joined by my sister for the evening. She currently lives in a nearby city, but lived for many many years 11 hours away (by car), so the fact that she can pop by when she has a day off is still super cool even after 2 years to get used to it. She had never seen Big Hero 6 and she definitely dug it! The concern on her face as the fire hit the university after the tech convention was too much- I had to steal a picture of her watching.
We're about to get in to single digits for the countdown and I'm so excited! This also means that we pick our FastPass reservations this week- ahhh the pressure! I'm getting our game plan ready to go so when that 60 day date hits, we'll be set.
Next week is our last CG animation for a bit... we'll be taking a trip down Rt 66
10 weeks!! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
