planning a party
Mood: happy
Today I went out to the grocery store to buy some stuff for the party I'm throwing on Sunday. It's a belated birthday party for my daughter. We were going to have it on the 30th Jan. but since we had a blizzard I postponed it until this Sunday. Well, now we are expecting another snowstorm tomorrow. I am going to throw the party regardless of the weather. I don't care whether any one shows up or not. We are going to have our tropical beach party and eat and drink tropical too. I'm going to cook beef teriyaki and sweet and sour chicken and noodles with a peanut sauce and rice. Then I'm making a fruit punch (minus the fifth of rum) and the cake will consist of a white cake with strawberry sauce and whipped cream. None of us are that fond of gloppy frosting, so I thought the fruit would be better. I also bought a coconut, a pineapple and a watermelon called a mini-me that I will hollow out and fill with fruit. The room is decorated with tiki cutouts and fish nets draped across the wall, flowers and palms, etc. It's okay looking, I would have loved to have done more but since it's my father's house I have to play it down a bit. I just have to keep my fingers crossed that the snow isn't too bad. Wish me luck!
