Last night, my friends Adrienne and Sarah headed to the movies to see Magic Mike. Since today is Sarah's birthday and there was no time to go out to a margarita-fueled dinner, I decided we needed to sneak in as much party food as possible. Now granted, I could have just decided to roll through the Taco Bell drive-thru and I think we all would have been happy, but you guys know me, I need to make things cute yet complicated. And since Sarah is the biggest fan of dips out there, I decided that's what we'd sneak in as contraband. Everything was portable and easy to eat while sitting in front of a giant screen of gyrating butts.
Here's what you need:
I keep white lunch bags on my person at all times. Well at least in my never-ending closet of random supplies. Fill it up with tiny containers of various dips, a bag full of dip vehicles, a little birthday cake and a fancy straw (paper straw haters look away) to sip the booze you snuck in and a cute little clothespin to hold it all together. It helps if you raid your craft supplies and make that shit cute!
It was when I was finger painting pink circles on the lids when John declared me officially insane. I'm surprised it's taken him this long.
I don't think this is a coincidence.
Everyone enjoyed their dip buffets and totes (for once, I mean the word tote, not the abbreve for totally) and I'm sure the people surrounding us at the theater enjoyed us singing Happy Birthday to Sarah.
- Magic Mike was surprisingly good yet surprisingly depressing. I know, how can a movie about a seedy occupation be depressing, Shan? I'm thinking it was a pretty accurate portrayal though, with their drinking and drugs and orgies and whatnot.
- I had never seen Channing Tatum in anything before so he was nice to look at and we all agreed that he'd be a good time to hang out with. (while wearing swat team gear and nothing else)
- Matthew McC was a sweaty creepster with excellent hipbones.
- I was warned that they showed tip of peen. And they did. And it was HUGE and blurry. So be ready for that. Thanks Mary.
- This guy below made the whole movie. In a horribly funny way. He was gross and a terrible actor and he phoned it in the entire movie.
But don't let him stop you from going to see it. Not that it would. The pull of gyrating butts is too strong with you guys, I know.

Love this whole thing. I'm a big fan of sneaking in food (peanut butter sandwich, pasta salad, entire slabs of cake) but never have I gotten balsy enough to go for dip. I love it!
The bags are super cute, and I love you for finger painting circles on the lids. I mean, it's not a color-coordinated dip bag unless EVERYTHING has something pink on it. Duh, John. ;)
As for Magic Mike, I just don't know if I can handle that much Matthew McConaughey. Especially if he's gyrating. ;)
Also, I'm pretty sure Magic Mike is banned in Kuwait. Not even kidding. They ban shiz like Beauty and the Beast, so sadly...no sexxay CT for me any time soon. :)
you are hilarious! one of my newest, most favorite bloggers to follow. And seriously... you come up with the best ideas - like this one. thanks for sharing!
I love that Kihn declared you insane while finger painting the
Bags. I, for one, think you are amazingly awesome AND insane. ;). Cute bags and idea.
How can you be so crafty while at the same time use phrases like 'make that shit cute'. You are freaking hilarious
Looks like good times!
hahhahah Phoned it in. I love it. There should have been a "k" bag there...sniff...there should have been a "k" bag. Alas, I will just be a creeper and go it alone. Oh wait, my pregnant sister-in-law also wants to see it. Vacation side-trip?
Nice Dips! I have been trying to use my pregnancy to guilt Tim into taking me to see this movie... so far no luck.
ha! you rebel, you! seriously cute little bags. and doesn't john love you precisely because you are a little bit insane??? ;)
I saw Magic Mike with a friend the other day and was also surprised by the depressing turn; I was like, "Can I just see another firemen dance and hoot some more??"
LMAO, this is awesome! And I love that you always go above and beyond...even if it makes me feel incompetent.
Also, I read somewhere that if you get kicked out of a movie for bringing in contraband items, you are entitled to a refund. I kind of want to test it, but instead I just sneakily drink my diet coke quietly because I'm scared to get into trouble but too cheap to buy a movie theater diet coke.
Oh my gosh!! Can you please be my best friend?!!? LOL!!! Amazing- I'm totally stealing this idea and making it a date night for tonight! However, I'm not sure my hubby is going to want to see Magic Mike... lol!
Just wondering how you snuck all of this stuff in??? I carry a small purse, so can barely sneak in a bottle of water and a box of candy, let alone a whole bag of goodies??!!
I love this! So freakin' cute. I'm going to this movie next weekend so I totes might have to pack some totes ; )
I love the fact that not only did you guys sneak yummy food and booze into the movie theater but you also made it adorable! Well played my friend.
