Movie Night!

We love having movie nights at our house on weekends, the kids feel "cool" for staying up and I enjoy snuggling together on the couch with yummy snacks.
This weekend we're making Mini Root Beer Float Cupcakes to go along with our big bowls of popcorn.

Speaking of popcorn, have you heard about Orville Redenbacher’s Pop & Win Sweepstakes? Right now, each bag has a heat-activated code on it and people have the chance to win cool prizes when they pop the popcorn! Cool, huh? It's on the shelves for a limited time so make sure to grab some on your next trip to the grocery store.

Guess what?! You don't have to wait until movie night to win an amazing prize pack (Flip Cam, anyone?!).
We're giving one Gourmet Mom reader an
Ultimate Movie Night Gift Pack that includes:

· A Flip Camera
· $10 Snapfish gift certificate
· Movie theatre candy
· Free Redbox rental
· Board games
· Orville Redenbacher’s Pop & Win popcorn

TO ENTER:
Time's up! We have a winner!
Pinks My Ink who said...
My family has 2 teenage girls so our favorite family movie is "The Notebook".

We'll chose one winner via random.org on 3/3. Open to US Residents. The prizes and information was provided through Orville Redenbacher's. I was not compensated for this post and all opinions, as always are my own.
