New Look, Same Blog

Lily And Ellie got a slight change in it's design. The previous seemed too hard to read some things. However, the current logo is now too big. We hope you enjoy the new look, and please spread word of the blog!

Lily Reviews: Barn Dance & BBQ Set

Here's our review of the Our Generation Barn Dance & BBQ Set. Its been out a while I think so I was surprised to find it! -The Human

First I have a picture of it in it's packaging. It comes with: A BBQ grill; 2 plates; 3 corn on the cob; 2 hotdogs with buns; a basket of chicken; 2 bottles of soda; tongs; A horseshoe game; harmonica;  poster; and a bandanna.

Next we have everything out of the package. The grill is super easy to put together - you just have to put the legs on it.

Here's the hot dog buns on the plates, all prepared while the...

...Hot dogs and corn are on the BBQ!

You can easily slide the hot dogs in and out of the buns. They can even be with (on the left) or without mustard (on the right)!

Here's a look at the bottle of soda. Do you think it's Coca-Cola or Pepsi?

I'm not entirely pleased with the basket of chicken. I don't like how the chicken isn't removable, and feel like the paper used will rip easily.

I decided to do a size comparison of the plates. The Our Generation  plate (left) is much smaller than the American Girl plate (right)

A look at the inside of the BBQ. It's clearly a charcoal grill.

This is the "fun stuff" that comes with it: The poster, bandanna, horseshoe game and harmonica!

A  closeup of  the poster. It says Annual Country & Western BBQ at the OG Stables, then lists the time, date, price, and other stuff. Plus it's two-sided: One side English and the other French.

This is the horseshoe game. You basically throw the horseshoes and try to get then on the pole, like a challenging ring toss.

A close up of the horseshoe. All three have the star pattern and OG symbol.

A close up of the harmonica. It's a cute instrument piece to have.

And finally, the bandanna!

My final ratings: (1★ = bad 5★ = good)

Difficulty (Putting together) - ★★★★★ not hard to assemble.

Quality - ★★★★ - It's great, but I'm sure the paper on the chicken will be ripped in the next few months...

Fun play -wise - ★★★★★ It'll be lots of fun to host a BBQ.
