Pocahontas Dinner

FULL TRANSPARENCY: We did this dinner a LONG time ago.  Actually this dinner was done before we had kids AND before we were married.  It was one of the first few that we did before the blog.  I found these pictures and realized that we never posted our great dinner for Pocahontas!  

For dinner we had Bison Burgers, Pocahontas' Golden Corn, Fry Bread, One with Nature Cocktail, and Berries of the Earth Mini Tart.

Bison Burgers

We found Bison burger patties at the grocery store and made them up!  Delicious!

Pocahontas' Golden Corn

We steamed the corn for 4 minutes and served with butter

One with Nature Cocktail

4 parts Baileys

2 parts Frangelico

1 part of Amaretto
