Yeah, the janitors need to warn people before they go steam cleaning. Just because the school is having finals this week doesn’t mean people aren’t still working, you know?? God… what a way to start my day!
1. Are you a party person? Or do you prefer an intimate gathering with just a few friends?
I suppose – if we’re talking about holiday parties – I do prefer smaller gatherings. The one we attended Saturday may have been 20-30 people and that was nice. The one I hit up on Friday was upwards of 80 and it was pretty fun but crazy. And I wasn’t sure if I should stay in one place and wait to see people or walk around and interrupt.
There’s a pic of me at the Friday party. I’m on the right. (Sorry it’s not bigger)
2. Would you rather be a guest at a party or the hostess with the mostess?
Having been both, I have to say that so long as I have the time and money, I kind of like being the hostess. I guess I relish in the prep work.
3. What is your favorite party food or drink? (I’d love to see the recipe!)
Ok so lately, I have been seeing these bacon-wrapped dates a lot. I think they’re super! recipe
4. What is the best party you’ve ever been to?
Oh man, I don’t know if I can quantify any parties. One of the coolest, swankiest ones was my Ash’s boss’s last year. They live in a super fancy house and had caterers and fancy foods and a guy on the deck shucking oysters. It was classy but not uptight.
5. What is your favorite party game?
When I was in college, I particularly liked Circle of Death, but if you google similar ideas, you get this game called Kings, which
is the same thing. I particularly liked the viking rule, wherein someone would throw up their hands in a Viking hat-like horn structure and anyone who didn’t furiously pretend to paddle a boat had to drink. Now, games just aren’t the same.
I have a picture from 2004 that is a bottle of beer surrounded by the deck of cards and it would be perfect here. But I am at work.
Well, there ya go. i am going to go delievr my Christmas cards to co-workers and move on with my day. Happy Wednesday!
having not played a lot of party games, I really had nothing to mention. No if we have the boys I spend time making sure they are OK and not driving everyone else crazy.
ohhh have you had bacon wrapped water chestnuts? delightful, i think there is a sweet and sour sauce on it too. mmmmm.
that viking rule sounds awesome.
thanks for linking up.
We’ve played Kings before too, and it’s always a lot of fun! Someone always ends up creating a “no swearing” rule which gets lots of people in trouble. lol
I’ve only had bacon-wrapped water chestnuts before, never heard of the bacon-wrapped dates before! Sounds so good!!
Anything wrapped in bacon is good times!
