Hagrid, Professor of Magical Creatures at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry,
Formally invites you to a
Fancy Dress Dessert Fete
at
The Leaky Cauldron

*Regrets only by owl
Hagrid wants to share a special treat with his friends. While in the South visiting Hogwarts exchange student Bubba Bedford-Lee, Hagrid feasted on the fanciest cuisine he has ever had in his life:
Royal Crown Cola (more commonly know as RC Cola) and Moonpies
Welcome to The Leaky Cauldron
These eggs were hand blown and painted by a Ukranian artist
Poor Ron. Hagrid seems to have invited a few of his eight-legged friends, too!
The anatomy of a Moonpie: cake, marshmallow filling, and icing. This one is a vanilla Moonpie.
The mystery cola? RC!
The wonderful graphics are from Halloween with Matthew Mead!
Hagrid is also serving M&M's and thumbprint cookies for those with a less sophisticated palette.
Yummy Moonpies!
Will you join Hagrid? Have you ever tried an RC and a Moonpie before?
Don't forget that tomorrow is Literary Friday!
Until next time...
Blessings!
Ricki Jill
How darling! RC Cola and Moonpie is so Southern. I'm not a fan of moonpies a whole lot, but with this decor, they are great!
ReplyDeleteLove this
ReplyDeleteWhat a great imagination you have RJ! love it! I could use a little of this in my life...thanks!
ReplyDeleteRicki Jill, this is just awesome! Your creativity just amazes me!

Ricki Jill,
ReplyDeleteI am in love with the black and white jars. I have been looking everywhere for a tea pot in the same design, but can't find one. The black spiders on the white roses is a nice touch. And I love the moon design with the moon pies. I noticed the black and white chandelier - did you go with that color combination in your kitchen? What a fun post this is!

Thank you for stopping by my carnival post. The Leaky Cauldron is quite an elegant establishment - enjoy those moon pies!
ReplyDeleteSo cute. I've never had a moon pie or an RC Cola, but now that I know they are typically southern I will have to have some when I'm next in the south. Spiders on your roses - I"m with Ron in thinking they are creepy.
ReplyDeleteI love this!!!! Those eggs are fabulous. I love the checked shades and tableware. This is so awesome. I hope you had some folks over to see it. I would hate to mess it up it is so detailed. On a another note I am clenching my teeth at this debate. Makes me sick to crap that is shoveled out.
ReplyDeleteOh how fun and very creative! I love this Ricki Jill!!! I love everything about your party, the decorations, the ambiance, the desert, the post. Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteOh, this is absolutely adorable! so many details, you could do a blog post on each, white roses with spiders...All so cute!

Cute tablescape! I don't think I've ever had a moonpie. That's sad coming from a southern girl.
ReplyDeleteHi Ricki Jill~ Hogwarts will never be the same if RC Cola is substituted for Butterbeer and MoonPies for magical sweets! I love your MC and Matthew Mead labels at the table. Poor Ron and his Arachnophobia :) Have you read The Casual Vacancy yet?
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful table! MoonPies originated near where my parents live. Once when we were visiting, we made a special point of getting MoonPies in Bell Buckle, TN. Neither kid liked them. And, honestly, I never liked them either. (I'm just not an authentic Southerner I guess.)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this, it looks gorgeous! You are so good at decor!
ReplyDeleteOh I have not had a RC cola since I was a child (that has been a bunch of years ago!!!!). Than moon pie sure does look fancy cut into and photographed the way you did it :)
ReplyDeleteAnyhoo, I know this is not what this post is about, but I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that chandy! And the little shades??? I am drooling over them too!
Oh this is such an elegant dessert fete Ricki Jill. Great tricks and delicious treats. I don't know when I've last heard the line Moon Pies and RC Cola, love it! Great graphics..........

I want a spider web painted egg NOW!!! (Ok, I know I used my Veruca voice just the other day, but it was eggs this times, so how could I resist?) Mmmmmm...Moon pies...mmmmmmmm! I haven't had or heard about RC Cola in a long time!
ReplyDeleteHow creative and decorative! Great table and pictures!
ReplyDeleteOh, such a fun & creative dining room table!
