The 86th Annual Academy Awards Dream Menu

Y'all. I am an Oscars nerd. Every year for the past 6 years I have invited over my best movie loving friends and assigned every one a best picture nominee. Each guest brings a dish or drink that correlates to their assigned movie. It's weird and delicious!

Now, I don't know what all my friends are bringing this Sunday, but here's a sample menu with some dream dishes for each best picture nominee. Every year has a different vibe (a few years ago it seemed almost everything on the menu was french food), and this year has a decidedly seafood spirit. Links to recipes for similar dishes can be found below. Pictures from my party to follow Monday!

1) Homemade Moon Pies 2) Perfect-mom-point-cupcakes 3) Caesar Salad with Salad Bar Croutons 4) Texas Caviar

1) Stuck-at-sea Grilled Shrimp Cocktail 2) Clams Casino 3) FBI Agent Lobster Dip 4) Assorted Local Beer 5) Blackberry Gin Fizz

Love it! Wished I could attend your party, you know I love a good theme evening. Love the menus. I also love to judge the fashion, nothing to do with movies but it's fun to pick your favorite and least while in your pjs.
