Last Party of 2012
We’ve decided that a New Year’s Eve Party was in order! We love throwing parties and New Year’s Eve was the perfect occasion!
I just adore any excuse to throw a party. There is nothing quite like getting all your friends and family together for a celebration.
That being said, there is absolutely no way that I can take the crown for the best party organizer. One of my friends who lives in the UK throws several parties each year and they are always unforgettable!
My friend lives on a large farm near London and so she often assembles a marquee in one of her fields to accommodate all of the guests. Sometimes over 100 people attend her parties and so she has to hire plenty of portable toilets to make sure that there are adequate facilities for all of the guests.
Apparently, if you ever need the services of a company that specializes in portaloo hire london is home to some fantastic businesses that can supply a whole range of different types of toilets. My friend always hires the most luxurious portaloos she can find just for her parties and I have to admit, it makes all the difference!
I cannot wait for her next soiree! The last time we spoke she told me that she was already thinking of a theme for her Spring Ball, so I am sure it will be a fabulous event.
Anyway, we are not one’s who want to fight crowds or drive on NYE! So this year the party will come to us! The invites went out and the menu is planned. I thought heavy appetizers would be fun instead of a sit down dinner.
The Menu…
Baked Brie~ my signature dish
Tomato Mozzarella salad
Cheese and Crackers ( I found a Champagne cheese, a Smoked Gouda, and a Pepperjack Cheese)
Stuffed grape leaves
Spanakopita
Black eyed peas
Dessert…
Mimi’s pound cake! (My wonderful friend is bringing this. She makes the best pound cake!)
Pineapple & strawberry fruit salad
Chocolate fudge
Candied pecans
