Family Fun magazine has some great ideas for making your Fourth of July extra festive. Of all of the items in the article I want to try and make these pretzel snacks. They look delicious.
Sweet & Salty Sparklers
Layered with white chocolate and studded with sprinkles and M&M’s, our pretzel treats add flare to any party spread. Cover a baking sheet with waxed paper. Melt 1 cup of white chocolate chips in a medium, heat-safe bowl according to the package directions. Use a spoon to drizzle 1 pretzel rod at a time with chocolate (you’ll have enough chocolate to make a dozen), then lay the rod on the prepared sheet and scatter it with red and blue sprinkles and M&M’s. Chill the pretzels in the refrigerator until the chocolate sets, about 15 minutes.
When Hop was in the movie theaters we took Eva to see it. She had already been to the movies once before and she liked it so we figured that this would be a cute movie for her to go and see. She enjoyed it and so did we, it was cute and silly and fun. Russell Brand was very funny as E. B. the son of the Easter Bunny with a dream to drum in a band. James Marsden as Frank, a slacker who loves Easter and who saw the Easter Bunny as a child also did a good job in the movie. But it was Hanz Azaria who got many of the best lines. We watched the movie again on Blu-ray and it was fun the second time around.
The Blu-ray has some very fun options including commentary by Hank Azaria as Carlos and games and so many other fun features. Here is the trailer and an exclusive clip of Phil’s Dance Party plus the Press Release.
