Thirteen on Thursday


A girl has to get into a party frame of mind.

What 13 things need to get done for the Ribs & Ciclon Girls Night Out?


1. Evites to go out this weekend.
2. Get the rental stuff done - punch bowls, glasses, and other party ware that I don't have.
3. Ask friend neighbour down the road, the caterer, to help with appetizers.
4. Call dessert caterer.. I am only one woman and can only do 5 or six desserts before then.
5. Call the rib place for the take out ribs.
6. Buy booze in stages... ciclon, bellini, beer, wine, pop, and sparkling water.
7. Find some vegetarian food for the veggie girls.
8. Plan the house cleaning.
9. Get daughters to help burn CDs for music when Andre and the band are off duty.
10. Floor plan.
11. Learn how to work your new digi-cam
12. Buy a bunch of disposable cameras for friends to take photos during the event - back to potential digi cam disasters.
13. Tell spousal unit - to disappear unless he relishes being taken apart by 50 pairs of evil, hormonally charged women waiting to take him apart. Note to self :Would this directive have more impact if it came in the form of a letter from the she-barracuda-suit in legal language?

kidding people.....
just kidding!
well.. not really but even I wouldn't waste money like that when I could waste it on a party! sheesh.


And Bonus thing...
shoes...
you need new shoes for the new dresses.

and a girl needs shoes even if she doesn't have a new dress or three!

she just does!

Party sounds like its going to be fun. Too bad we live so far away.
You can take lots of photos and I will live vicariously through them.

*hugs*

Ciclon see the picture? is an amazing mix made by Bacardi.. a mix of Bacardi rum and get this - tequila. It should be vile... but it's smoooooooooooth and tastes luscious with grapefruit soda and a twist of lime. Add a splash of grand marnier and oh my.... quite a lunch... it's the GNO drink! We drank it at camp one year starting around 4 ish in the afternoon.

Rebel has discovered it. She found my stash in the basement fridge too. She can't wait for the big party either!
