Last night went very well.
It was called What's for Dinner Mom? We had the ladies sign up in advance to bring dish that they liked from the Ward cookbook that we made last year. Since most of us have one, we thought it would be a good way to "taste test" recipes that we might not normally cook if we couldn't try before hand. For those that didn't have one we are emailing all the recipes that were featured last night to those who wanted them. All the dishes were labeled and we had little recipe type cards at each place so that they could write the name of the dishes that they liked best.
For the game we played a candy bar game. Each seat had a place card with either a Snickers, Almond Joy, Kit Kat, Milky Way, Mr. Goodbar or Crunch Bar. When they came in they chose their favorite candy bar out of those 6 choices and sat in a seat with the same place card. Then after we were done eating we all had to share a story or something about us that went with our candy bar. For example Snickers people had to tell a funny story about themselves. Milky Way people had to tell of a dream or goal. Kit Kat people had to tell of things that they like to do in their spare time. Almond Joy people told of what brought them joy. Crunch bars were accidents, either car of physical. And Mr. Goodbar were stories of a Date they went on, either an awesome date or a horrible date.
All the ladies said that they had fun. If only we had taken some pictures.
