Looking for some ideas. Got "Life of Pi" covered with a pie. Maybe Humus for Argo? 
I am not very creative. Any suggestions?

Posted: 2/19/13 at 9:19pmI'm thinking of putting out a bunch of assorted little horse dovers and then sit back and watch the whole show. Normally I don't get to stop fussing in the kitchen all night.
