Tired of the same old couples? dinner? Next time you invite your favorite people over for a gathering at home at Fort Carson Family Housing, why not try something new instead of the usual dinner and dessert formula.
Foreign Cuisine
Pick a country to inspire your food, music, and decor. Ask friends to bring a dish from that region, so you all can enjoy a variety of options. Select music and place settings that also reflect the theme ? for example set the table with brightly colored plates and platters, put on some mariachi music and ask guests to each bring a Mexican appetizer, side dish, or dessert!
Wine Tasting
If you and your friends enjoy sampling wines, try hosting a wine tasting. Ask each guest to bring a bottle, and then cover the labels with numbers. Give everyone a note pad so they can take notes and rank each bottle, and then reveal the labels at the end of the evening. For food, put out a simple cheese platter and some gourmet chocolates to enjoy with the deeper reds, and you?re good to go!
Appetizers Only
If cooking a full meal leaves you stressed and unable to enjoy your own party, try hosting an ?appetizer only? party instead. Ask friends to bring their favorite finger food or bite-sized dessert and put everything out at once so people can nosh. And, if you focus on finger foods ? you won?t have any utensils to wash afterwards!
Movie Night
Everyone loves a good old-fashioned movie night, so why not invite your friends over for food and a film? It?s fun to theme the cuisine around the movie, so if you?re watching The Godfather make a hearty lasagna and enjoy cannolis for dessert as you settle in to watch this classic film.
