If you need a few ideas for your
New Year's Eve party,
here's a few things we're doing.

The Food
Killer Nachos
Recipe found in Josi Kilpack's
amazing mystery books.


Shepherds Bread
Unfortunately I'm not sure who to give
credit to for this recipe, but it is delicious!
- - - - - - -


1 boule bread bowl.  
2 8 oz packages of cream cheese
½ cup of sour cream
2 tbs of milk
1 tsp minced garlic (or 1 clove of fresh chopped garlic)
¼ tsp of pepper
1 tbs minced onion
2 packages of buddings meat (pastrami & beef)

Mix all ingredients over low heat… melting the cream cheese and blending it together until it’s smooth. Double wrap in tin foil. Cook at 300 degrees for 2 hours.

Little Smokies
Love these!

Homemade Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies
So excited to try these!



The Games
Hourly Countdown
With a little inspiration from the Dating Divas!

I'm doing mine a little differently.
I had each person fill out an
"About Me"
Then on each hour,
I will read someone's answers
while having the others guess who it is.
Once they guess the correct person,
they can take their bag with a treat inside.

Here's my treat ideas:

- I get Butterfingers when I'm around you! {Butterfingers} 
- Hope your New Year is Popping with fun! {Popcorn}
- We would have to be NUTS not to appreciate you! {Nuts}
- Of all the sister's in the world, I'd CHEWS you! {Gum}
- Hugs and Kisses for a #1 Dad! {Hersheys Kisses}
- You and Jenny were MINT to be together {Mints}


Bingo
My mom just purchased a Bingo set
and we'll all bring some candy bars for prizes.

{Make one for FREE here.}

Buzzword
Great game for groups!



Catch-a-Phrase
Another great group game.


Monopoly Electronic Banking
I just got this game for Christmas.
Monopoly with credit cards!
Monopoly Electronic Banking Edition


Movies
Princess Bride


Dolphin Tales



I hope this gives you a few ideas
for your New Year's Eve party!
The Dating Divas also have some great posts
here and here!
