Your Friends will Love you...or will they.

Ah...summer will be gone before we know it! Did you get to do anything fun? Do you need new ideas, something different to do?

Try this:
Invite 8 to 10 friends to your home for dinner and games.

Get the grill going to cook a meat of your choice.
Prepare some potato chunks, corn on the cob, squash and sliced onion….put these in heavy duty foil, add a little butter, salt and pepper and put it on the grill.
Have cool cream pie for dessert, or ice cream is nice on a hot day.

Outside is a great place to serve dinner. Put a pretty cloth on the picnic table (or any table you have outside) and add a vase of pretty flowers. Use colorful dishes for a festive look. If anyone is helping you set the table and tells you that you forgot the silverware, tell them that you will take care of that yourself. Just make sure you have plenty napkins.

Put the cooked food in colorful serving dishes (NO serving utensils). Have everyone get seated. I’m sure someone is going to comment on the lack of silverware. You are going to get the clear plastic gloves you bought and pass out a pair to everyone.


THAT’S RIGHT! It’s a get it and eat it with your hands night! Including the pie (or ice cream).

If your guests would like to have a fresh pair of gloves for their dessert, have plenty on hand.

After dinner, have folded slips of paper (that you prepared beforehand) that have things written on them like:
* Ride a horse
* Play with hula-hoop
* Drive a Semi-truck
* Eat Watermelon
* Play horse shoes
* Wash the dishes
* Square Dance
* Change a diaper
* Swat flies
* Catch Butterflies with a net
Add some ideas or make up your own. Remember whoever is acting-out cannot speak a word and everyone else will guess what they are doing.

Have lots of fun and laughs with this!
