Arrr Talk Like A Pirate Day Hop


Arrr, it's Talk Like A Pirate Day, Mateys! And what is even more exciting is that this is one amazing Pirate Day Hop! You can win amazing prices from All Things For Sale by hopping through this Blog Hop and collecting pieces of a treasure map to find our Booty! Every Blogger Buccaneer in this here Hop has a piece of the treasure map! You'll need to "collect" each piece and put them together in the right order to find the treasure! You'll want some parchment and a quill, to keep a log with each clue and each number, because there are 39 scurvy pirates running amok with 39 pieces o' the map to collect! 37 pieces will guide you to the hidden treasure (by spelling out the URL where you can enter to win!) and there are 2 bonus pieces with the "secret passwords" to get two chances to win some pirate booty!

Scroll all the way down to find my piece and Good Luck, Matey!



This is our pirate lunch! I made all the kids two ship shaped cheese quesadillas by cutting one quesadilla with a sharp vegetable knife and using it as a stencil for the others. I decorated the ship with seaweed cannon holes and a Nori steering wheel (best cut out with scissors) and a pirate ship sail cupcake topper. My kids also packed vanilla yogurt with a scary seaweed scull and a treasure chest full of gold coins. As always we packed ice water and I added a small veggie snack box as well with cucumbers and peppers :)
I snuck in some piratey lunch notes as well, arrr.






Here is my piece of the map, Matey! Grab it and find the rest. Hope your will find the big treasure in the end!


To continue your treasure map hunt hop over to Bentomonsters and find the rest!



Happy Talk Like A Pirate Day and good luck to all!
