I have participated in Food ‘n Flix Club a few times, been following them for about a year now, and now I get to be host! I get to choose the movie and post a roundup here at the end of the month. I wanted to host for the month of July because it is my birthday month! I wanted a good party movie, and I also wanted an 80s film because I am an 80s baby. 10 guesses as to what age I’m turning this year…
Heather and I emailed back and forth a few times so she could help me narrow down my choices. I started off with a list of about 20 movies and slowly whittled it down to Dirty Dancing, Back to the Beach, or Risky Business. I carried a watermelon and decided I wanted to have the time of my life this month. So Dirty Dancing it is! Put on your prettiest party dresses, learn a few dance moves, carry a watermelon, and join us for a fun Food ‘n Flix viewing of Dirty Dancing. Keep on scrolling to learn how to participate, and scroll even further for a Champagne Watermelon Pops recipe!

I love this idea. Perfect for the Fourth. Thanks for hosting this round! Happy Birthday month as well!
Thank you! I can’t wait to see how many watermelon recipes we get. 😉
I think you made an awesome choice for this month, and I can’t wait to see all of the recipes inspired by Dirty Dancing (I’m guessing we’re going to have a lot of watermelon)! Thanks for being our hostess this month. 🙂
There is food in Dirty Dancing? I was too young to remember from the last time I saw it lol. ove the fancy champagne pops for sure!
I definitely would not consider it a “foodie” movie, which is actually part of the reason I chose it. I wanted the challenge. I have watched it 3 times this week looking for inspiration for my own contribution!
I’m so excited to watch this film again with foodie goggles on. It is one of my favorites.
Can’t wait to see what you make!
what I’m told he’s cool with the boys oogling him. Girth and Conner are together in Laid Off with Colby KerlAl.enyway, my always horny buddy Conner just couldn’t wait for this one. He
