As you all know, this month I got to host Food n Flix Club, and I chose Dirty Dancing! I knowwww it is not a “foodie movie” and that is part of the reason I chose it. I wanted a challenge. Don’t get me wrong, I love foodie movies. I also love girly movies, and classic movies, and lighthearted silly movies. I liked the idea of going with a not foodie movie and having to search for the inspiration. As you will see in everyone’s posts, though, there are plenty of food moments from which to draw inspiration. I contributed my 60’s Inspired Cocktail Party. Keep on scrolling to check out all the photos and links to this month’s recipes. Enjoy!
