Pancake Breakfast( or Lunch or Dinner)

Who doesn’t love pancakes? I once called up a friend on a whim and offered to bring over some pancakes. I didn’t realize how this unexpected surprise could brighten someone’s day or that it would turn into an awesome party where we were joined by neighbor friends and called up any others who were available to come join us. It led to laughing and sharing memories over a mountain of my fav chocolate chip pancakes, several cups of coffee, and even meeting new friends. Overall it was a fun, laid back time with friends I would highly recommend!

Pinterest Party

All right all you Pinners out there, you’ve been plenty inspired now lets put those projects to the test! Have your friends select a couple of Pinned projects they really want to try and do them as a group. This could be anything from homemade facial masques and beauty products to no-sew recycled t-shirt purses. Try a party game, learn a new dance move, or even build something! Just don’t try the homemade hot sugar wax hair removal (messy and painfully wrong in so many ways!).

Flashback Freak Out Party

This one is for when your feeling nostalgic and/or goofy. Choose your favorite childhood or teenage throwbacks and mash them into one big party. Each person could show up with a favorite candy or flashback food (Celeste individual pizzas and fruit by the foot for me!), wearing something “historic” (like flare jeans) or funny (think school spirit days like crazy hair day or pajama day), and organize a series of activities like flash dancing to your favorite old songs, put some of your favorite old pictures together in a short movie, watch an old Disney favorite, or recreate a legendary day like the great food fight of 6^th grade.

Have fun ladies, love VW!
