April Fool's Day

April Fool's is a fun little holiday, that I think most people never really celebrate.  We didn't really ever do anything for it all growing up.  But I have learned its kinda fun to play tricks on people.  I didn't really have the energy to plan out a bunch of pranks on my fam this year, even though I pinned a bunch on pinterest that I totally plan on doing another year.  Me and one of my friends did decide to get together and plan out a little April Fool's Dinner though, inspired by yet another pinterest find.  We invited our families to come to "Fool's Cafe".  Their booth was one of the most sought after spots in the whole cafe...right next to the front door.  We gave them a menu that included all the items they could order.  Then they got to order 3 different courses.  The items on the menu were:

Bad Breath

Niblets

Skinny Worms

Split in the Road

Calf Testicles

Puppy Chow

Fruity Cow

Pastel Pasties

Houston's Necessity

Pee

Sugar Carrier

Blueberry Juice

Dog Biscuits

Green Eggs and Ham

Doctor's Tool

Their job was to try and decipher what the real food was by the name given, order the right things, and try and get a full meal.  Me and Karie thought we were pretty creative with the names of the foods and utensils, and were excited to have our family come to our little cafe.  Turns out her fam had a little more fun with it than mine.  Jeter and Jerzi were not too happy when they ordered blueberry juice cuz it was the only thing that sounded good, and then they got a glass of milk ...which they do NOT like.  Had may or may not have been worse than the kids when he didn't get anything for a real meal. I think he ordered Niblets-corn, split in the road-fork, fruity cow-spaghetti sauce, and puppy chow-dip for crackers.  

One thing I learned about the restaurant business, if you want make a creative, fun, tricky meal, make sure:  

A. Your customers aren't starving

B. It's on the early side of a meal time instead of late

C. They understand that everything isn't what it seems before they order

If you do that, your cafe might stay in business a little longer than ours.
