Hunger Games District Twelve food

I’m the epitome of a Young Adult fangirl. The Hunger Games is one of my favorite series. I’m a sucker for a dystopian trilogy. Divergent being my other favorite. Being in Atlanta I’m able to experience The Hunger Games at a whole new level because the movies were filmed here. One of my favorite spots is the Swan House, which you may know as President Snow’s home. The extravagant party that was held on the front lawn for Catching Fire was just amazing. There is a great day-long tour that I went on called the Hunger Games Unofficial Fan Tours here in Atlanta, where we got to discover District Twelve, The Arena, and President Snow’s mansion. We also got to play Archery Tag, which was a blast! But what I loved about the day was how much thought they had put into all the little details, like lunch!

It was an “authentic” District Twelve meal, or at least what you would expect someone from District Twelve with limited food sources would eat. It included a crescent roll, cherry tomatoes, Prim’s goat cheese wrapped in basil, trail mix, jerky, watermelon, and mint salad. It looks light but it is actually the perfect sized meal. I placed the chess, basil, and tomatoes in the roll and ate it like a sandwich. We also got a snack before we went inside the Swan House, Nightshade (should be Nightlock) berries (blueberries) and a white rose from President Snow. It was perfect. For our special tour, we were treated to something extra special. William Dean Chocolates, the same chocolates that appeared during the party at President Snow’s home. Aren’t they beautiful? You can order your own too on the William Dean website.

Rue’s Berries – mixed greens with blackberries, raspberries, blueberries, goat cheese, chopped walnuts, and raspberry vinaigrette.

On another occasion, I attended a party at the Swan House and they had Hunger Games inspired food that was to die for made by Proof of the Pudding. Their presentation of the food was also amazing. I started with the District Twelve’s, which were Basil wrapped goat cheese bites. Goat cheese drizzled roast garlic and orange, topped with fresh cracked pepper, sea salt, red peppers and served with grilled ciabatta.

Firebird is a solid dark romantasy read. You have dragon-shifter political leaders of Rome. A witch who I don’t think we have seen the full extent of her power yet. There were so many little side stories told that I believe our FMC will ...
Sunrise on the Reaping
it was amazing
Oh Haymich, my heart is shattered for you. This was the perfect bridge between The Ballard of Songbirds and Snakes and Catching Fire. Linking the wickedness of The Hunger Games with the victors who came together to end them. If Suzanne C...

This was a sweet romance read. I really enjoyed the audiobook narrators (Joshua Manning and Stina Nielsen). I don’t usually read books that fall into the religious category, but I’m a sucker for Scots and Irishman so that is why I wanted...

I am thoroughly enjoying the Hell Bent series. My Demon Hunter was even better than My Funny Demon Valentine. I’m a sucker for demonology stories, and these are filled with all kinds of interesting characters. This one features a plus-si...
