Winter Movies We Can’t Wait For!

Winter is a great time to go the movies.  Long dark nights are just right for date nights, family outings or a trip out with friends.  Before the madness of the holiday season sets in, treat yourself to a night at the movies to catch one of these December releases:

Ben Is Back

This time of year is perfect for a gripping drama and Ben Is Back doesn’t disappoint.   When the charming yet troubled Ben Burns returns home to his unsuspecting family one fateful Christmas Eve, it is down to his mother Holly (Julia Roberts) to save him from himself. While she welcomes her beloved son’s return, she quickly learns that he is still very much in harm’s way. The next 24 hours may change all their lives forever, and Holly must do everything in her power to avoid the family’s downfall.

Once Upon a Deadpool

This is a PG-13 version of Deadpool 2 with new scenes and teen-friendly language making it safe for younger fans to enjoy. Adults will get the Princess Bride-like storytelling with familiar faces throughout the movie. This will be a limited engagement so be sure to see it while you can! In theaters December 12th.

Spider-Man – Into The Spider-Verse

In this movie about the web-slinging Marvel superhero, it’s Miles Morales who is swinging around New York City this time around. The teen gets some training from the original superhero Peter Parker and discovers that there’s a “Spider-Verse” out there with more than just one Spider-Man.

Aquaman

This is the latest film based on a DC superhero, that finally tells the full backstory of Arthur Curry, the half-Atlantean, half-human who is the rightful heir to the kingdom of Atlantis. Joining him as he tries to keep the peace between the underwater world and the surface world is Amber Heard as his love interest, Mera, and Nicole Kidman as his mother, Queen Atlanna.

Mary Poppins Returns

It is over half a century since Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke first starred in the wonderful Mary Poppins.  A family favorite since its first opened, the London nanny who carried everything in that carpet bag, has been a much-loved character for children the world over.  This new version stars Emily Blunt and Lin-Manuel Miranda and is set in 1930s London, where the umbrella-wielding nanny returns to help the Banks family after a tragedy.

Bumblebee

As a prequel to the Transformers film franchise that began in 2007, Bumblebee is set 20 years earlier and follows the adorable autobot of the same name. Together with his new best friend, a girl called Charlie, the two must outrun a government organization known as Sector 7, led by Agent Burns (John Cena).  Along the way, they discover that Bumblebee isn’t the only Transformer on Earth.

Holmes and Watson

This re-telling of the adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson is probably the most light-hearted rendition ever made. Comedy duo Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly don their hats to become super-sleuths, as they attempt to stop an assassination attempt against Queen Victoria by rival James Moriarty (Ralph Fiennes).

Finger Foods That Everyone Will Love

A great party is full of good music, excellent entertainment and great tasting food. From sit down dinners to banquets and buffets, the food you serve at your next event will help to make it the best one yet.

Our inflatables add fun and excitement to parties, fairs and festivals throughout South Florida, but it’s the personal touches you add with your food that really brings the flavor.

Think beyond plain old burgers and pizza and add some sparkle to your holiday finger food this holiday season.  Stuck for inspiration? Try these ideas for size:

Pastry Pigs with Cheese and Cider Dipping Sauce

For a modern twist on pigs in blankets, try wrapping cocktail franks in pretzel dough and baking in the oven, before mixing up a simple white sauce with tangy cheddar and sharp cider for a delicious contrast of flavors.

Egg Buffet Bites

Boiled eggs are a great base for easy canapés and finger foods.  For the festive season, go for a different take on the classic deviled egg recipe, and add flavorful toppings instead of mayonnaise.  Try salmon and dill leaves, or bacon and green onion for an easy, tasty, festive feast.

Bruschetta

Super easy to make, and just as easy to devour, Bruschetta is a classic Italian finger food that works well all year round. The key to a great bruschetta is the wonderful combination of flavors.  Rub garlic on the bread itself, before topping with the freshest, juiciest tomatoes, basil and olive oil.  Grill before serving for a simple, tasty snack that makes a welcome change from stodgy pizza.

Ham and Cheese Sliders

An easy alternative to burgers, these sliders are perfect for kids and adults and are easy to eat with a drink in one hand, and a plate in the other.  Make tiny layered sandwiches using freshly baked bread or brioche and fill them with layers of good quality cheese and delicately flavored ham. Grill for just a few moments to make the bread soft, and the cheese gooey.

Turkey and Cranberry Sliders

Just like above, these sliders are easy to eat and simple to make.  Use good quality cold cuts, or cook your bird from fresh, and layer a good size dollop of cranberry sauce on fresh white bread or brioche to make delicious, mini festive sandwich bites.

Savory Christmas Trees

Using salami and cheese layered between store brought puff pastry, simply fold the strips of dough accordion style and place on a skewer.  Bake in the oven for 15 minutes or so and add a green olive to top off your tree.

Whiskey Meatballs

Meatballs on cocktail sticks make the most awesome finger foods.  Go for a more grown-up variation on the theme by letting the meatballs simmer in sugar, ketchup, lemon juice and bourbon whiskey to make them melt-in-the-mouth delicious.  Place them on a cocktail stick and serve hot.

Pastries, pretzels, sandwiches, salads, crackers, cookies, cakes and candies are also great ways to stave off hunger as you and your guests enjoy a holiday party this Christmas.

Add an Inflatable to Your Holiday Party

The days may be shorter, and quite not as hot as the summer, but winter here in Florida is still an awesome time to have a huge family party to usher in the holiday season. Unlike some parts of the country, the weather is still wonderful enough to be able to party outside late into the evening, meaning you can pretty much have giant inflatables in your yard all year round.

If you are planning a holiday party this year, why not go all out and add some inflatables into the mix, for perfect family fun to make memories that will last forever.

Waterslides are amazing any time of year.  Impress the neighbors with The Twister, an awesome super-slide is perfect for family gatherings.  At 40 feet tall it towers over the rooftops, and its so big even Santa will see it from his sleigh!  If you want something a bit closed to the ground, we have a huge range of waterslides to suit every occasion and every budget.

Keep the Kids Entertained with A Bounce House

Bounce houses are a great way to entertain the younger members of your family during your holiday party.  They are available in a wide a variety of sizes, colors, designs and themes and you will be able to find one that fits your yard, no problem!  Choose from pirate ships, princess castles or zoo safari’s and other themes, to add even more excitement for the little ones.

Bounce houses never go out of fashion and kids of all ages love them too. For bigger kids, and adults, why not add a bounce house with a difference?  You can get hire bounce houses that double up as Xtreme Sports Arenas, football stadiums and even dance floors for all the family to enjoy.  Whatever the size of your venue, and however many people you have coming, a bounce house is always a great addition to your holiday party.

Get Competitive

How about putting your family values to the test with some competitive sports in your own backyard?  Obstacle courses are a brilliant way to hold races and competitions between friends, family and neighbors.  Choose from rock climbing courses, extreme running course with huge slides and giant football courses, or keep it on friendly with inflatable sumo wrestling, human-hungry hippos or even inflatable Skee-Ball.

Dance the Night Away

Dancing on the dance floor is cool, but it will never be as cool as dancing in a disco dome cool.  The Disco Dome Bounce House with its music and disco lights should be at the center of any holiday party.  Shake your thang in the floor, as you enjoy the tunes pumped out by the high-quality amplifier and speaker system that can be connected to your smartphone or music system.  The disco lights will jump along to the music, transforming an outdoor party into your very own enclosed nightclub.

10 Great Tech Gifts for The Holidays

These days, technology is a huge part of our every day lives.  It should be no surprise then, that some of the most popular Holiday gifts this season are robotic vacuum cleaners, alarm clocks that work with light and cameras that allow you to talk to your dog from anywhere in the world.  Innovative and incredibly unique, tech gifts are more popular than ever this December.

Here are 10 of the very best for your list.

Long Distance Friendship Lamp

This is a great idea.  Show your distant friends and family members that they are in your thoughts with a Long-Distance Friendship Lamp that will light up when you are thinking about them.  Tap the top of your lamp at home, and the other one will light up too, no matter how far away it is. So cute, and a great way to keep in touch all year round.

A Camera to Keep Tabs on Your Dog

Keep an eye on what your pooch is up to while you are out at work with a dog camera.  Not only can you check that they are indeed being a good boy, but you can also use an App to communicate with them and even toss them treats when it’s time for a snack.

 A Smart Garden

No room in the yard to grow veggies?  No problem!  A smart garden uses hydroponic growing systems to enable you to grow your own herbs and salad greens from pre-seeded plant pods.  Very cool for those who like to grow their own.

A Natural Alarm Clock

Thanks to our own internal circadian rhythm, we all wake up naturally when the sunlight comes streaming in.  Emulate a natural, more gentle wake up with a light that simulates sunlight to help you start your day feeling fresh and energized.

A Robot Vacuum Cleaner

These look so much fun!  Robot vacuum cleaners will clean your carpets, rugs, tiles and even hardwood floors while you get on with something else.  Simply map your room and switch it on.  It won’t fall down the stairs or bump into your furniture, and you can even control it with you Amazon Echo or Google Assistant.

Waterproof Speakers

Who doesn’t like singing in the shower?  Turn every shower into a show stopper with waterproof speakers that allow you to listen to your favorite tunes even under the water.

A Smart Blender

Guilt-free blending is here, with smart blenders that help you to monitor your healthy intake and cut out unwanted carbs and sugars. These health-conscious and fitness-focused blenders are perfect for making smoothies that are actually good for you.

A Capsule Projector

Turn any room into a movie theatre with a portable capsule projector.  Small in stature but big on technology, they can also offer 360 round sound and work with your smartphone to display movies on the big screen, wherever you are.

A Video Doorbell

Be able to see who is knocking at your door, even when you are not home.  Video doorbells let you see, hear and speak to visitors simply by using your phone, tablet or computer.

A Digital Photo Frame

Not new to the market, but these photo screens are still a very special way to show someone that you are thinking of them.  Choose your favorite photos and keep them on display at all times, as the frame cycles through your favorite shots in a perpetual slideshow.
