Want a quick, easy, fun dinner for kids? Try Octopi (Octopus plural) Take a hotdog (turkey dogs work well), slice one end up to about 1.5 inches from the other end, slice into 6 sections (8 is correct for an octopus but tends to make the legs too thin and they break off) Drop into boiling water. The legs curl up!
Here is how they look when they are done.
Yum yum and so much fun.

how neat is that...i have to try it
What a neat idea!
What a fun idea! You are a crafty mom!
great idea. I'd try it if I could stand the smell of boiling hot dogs. I get a little childhood flashbacky and get the urge to beat up my sister with some kindling. Funny, she doesn't even live with us.
What a great idea!! Alex would LOVE this. We'll have to try this the next time.
How fun!! Whoever said you were not the creative/artistic one... I wish I had your energy!!
Love You!
Add some Ramen noodles dyed with alittle blue food coloring and you have an ocean of fun.:)
We served these on a bed of seaweed (cooked spinach) at my son's pirate themed birthday party last year. The kids LOVED them and even ate the spinach, too!
SUCH a great idea!! I am going to have to try that, too. Love the seaweed idea, too!!
LOVE IT! So cute! I'm doing that this weekend -- Ting Ting thanks you!
Now that is adorable, I'm trying it tommorrw.! Thanks.
I'm a very infrequent reader but I recently popped by and saw this post. My kids loved this! Thanks for the great idea!
