This Thursday night (or should I say Friday morning) I joined the legions of Twihards in celebrating the debut of New Moon, the long awaited sequel to the 2008 blockbuster, Twilight. Being a self-proclaimed "cool mom" I hosted a pre-movie movie party complete with vampire-worthy cupcakes, red apples and of course, lots of high-energy beverages so that we could stay awake for the 12:03 a.m. showing of the movie. Take note of the cupcakes as they hold special significance for the evening. How? Well . . .
- They were red velvet cupcakes (red for vampires and velvet for Edward's velvety smooth voice)
- White frosting to depict the pale pallor of the Cullen family's complexion
- Silver cupcake holders that sparkle, just like Edward in the sunshine
- Fork decorations to pay homage to the town in which the Twilight saga takes place, and
- Photos of Edward and Jacob (natch) that are placed in the fork prongs to depict vampire fangs.
I wish I could take credit for all this creativity, but alas, I saw this on theTwi -Crack Addict blog.
The evening was fun, we all stayed awake through the pre-party AND movie, and no one went home disappointed. All in all, a great late night out. . . probably not to be copied until June 29/30 for Eclipse.
we went last night. Loved the movie...glad I read the books because we missed SO MUCH dialogue with all the SCREAMING and out of control pre-teens. GEEZ! Next time I'm going to the midnight showing when they'll hopefully all be in bed.
ReplyDeleteGonna get the DVD so I can watch the topless Jacob scenes on repeat.
