Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner

Well, I did it. I entered my very first cooking contest.
In entering the recipe that I did I also took a big risk. Even though the rules of the contest didn’t stipulate that the recipe had to be something simple or easy to prepare, I felt no matter what it was necessary for [...]

  Nope. Couldn't get any cuter.
• surprisedmom
  It certainly is! Awwww . . . how cute! Did he enjoy wearing his costume?
  
  BTW, I must really, really like your blog. I had it listed twice on my blogroll . . .
• PJ Mullen
  Initially, yes, but it was really warm here on Halloween, so he got sick of it quick.
  
  That's funny, I know my kid is cute and all, but... :)
• Keith Wilcox
  That's a quality outfit you've got there. My sons went as jedi for two years in a row. We're a little bit freakish when it comes to our love of Star Wars (maybe even bordering on nerdy). We had a Hollywood costume designer to their outfits. This one looks great! I like the belt. I bet he was the envy of other wanna be Jedis :-)
• PJ Mullen
  Thanks, my mom made it for us, she's really good with that stuff. Wow, that is no joke right there, a Hollywood costume designer. Bringing out the big guns for that. All the dads seemed to like it, one mom asked if he was Yoda. Ugh!
• Jason @ The Devoted Dad
  Hah! Cute kid! That's a great ready stance. It's like your little mini-me is trying to use his Jedi mind trick to get you to take a picture. Yesss! Successful. Ah, man he's good.
• PJ Mullen
  Actually, I think he wanted to hit me with the lightsaber so I'd get the camera out of his face. I took over 100 pictures the first two days I had my new camera. He's a bit sick of it.
• theteachertom
  Ha! That light saber kills me! So, I read elsewhere that he wasn't such a big fan of the costume???
• PJ Mullen
  It's great isnt' it? It is actually a bubble wand we got for a buck while we were on vacation this summer. Probably the best dollar I've ever spent. It was unseasonably warm here and the base for the costume was a pair of pajama pants and a turtle neck onesie, so he was melting by the time the parade was over.
• R_Mattocks
  That's awesome! He'd fit in perfectly with all the kids in costume at Comic Con (not that I went, but I saw a ton of pics).
• PJ Mullen
  He could probably use the jedi mind trick on them. I've already got plans to have my mom make an all black outfit for next year so I can tell people he left the Dagobah system to save Han :)
• Katy Spears
  How cute! Thanks for sharing.
  My son has been a Star Wars character for years. My fave was the Darth Vader year.
  Happy WW.
• PJ Mullen
  Nice! I debated going with Vader, but he won't even leave a hat on his head right now, so I figured a mask wasn't even in the realm of possibility.
