My guest today is Amy from Living Locurto. I call Amy’s site “Party Central” for any kind of a kid party you are thinking about – she has some great ideas to help you out!
Living Locurto is published by Amy Locurto, a graphic designer and mom of two. Amy owns Atomic Egg and is also co-owner of a photography web site I Heart Faces. Here you can find her free printables, menu plans, recipes, fun party ideas and crafts.
Amy has graciously agreed to share with my readers today about a party she recently threw her daughter.
So here’s Amy …
Hi I’m Amy from Living Locurto, a blog about parties, food, crafts and free printables. I’m excited to be guest posting here today! I love to entertain and a big fan of the stay at home birthday party. I have many fond memories of my birthdays and all I had was a cake and a few friends! Making special birthday memories can be fun and easy.
I threw my daughter a fun mermaid party and the sushi sandwiches were the big hit and they were the easiest thing I made! So I thought it would be a good thing to share with you today.
Whether you entertain for kids or adults, everyone will love this easy to make dish.
Sushi Sandwich Ingredients
- Whipped Cream Cheese
- Cheddar Cheese Slices
- 1-2 Cucumbers
- Turkey
- Mustard (optional)
- White Sandwich Bread
Directions
- Slice the cheddar cheese and cucumber into long thin pieces.
- Cut the crusts off the bread.
- Roll the cheese, cucumbers, cream cheese and turkey up in a piece of white bread. I also added mustard to some.
- Slice the roll in half. Slicing with a knife helps make the roll stick.
- Place on a plate like real sushi and watch your guests eat them up!
Thanks Sandy for having me today!

Amy and I would love to hear your favorite kid party that you have been to, or a favorite easy snack that you prepared?
Hi, I'm Sandy. Five years ago I stocked up on beautiful glasses from the Dollar Store. As I started writing about dinner parties, I realized that this "icon" portrays a great message. 
I want to share with you some of my favorite places to visit in blog-land, sites that I learn from and am inspired by, and some beautiful friends that I’ve met over the years.
I’m so excited to hear that Amy has a blog! I enjoy I Heart Faces so much – I’m anxious to see her other blog!

This is so wonderful and cute! My family would just get a kick out of this. I am a HUGE sushi lover and they are not so this would be a neat thing to make to have a laugh.
Thanks so much Amy for the recipe and how-to!
