Decorating this Christmas post with a few of my favorite Christmas cards I drew last year! I mean WHO wants to read a plain post...so boring!!So you are sick of all those Christmas Leftovers...and what do to do with some of those presents you received that are just NOT what you want!
Well this is the perfect party to take care of your woes...and its the favorite Christams party for many of my friends...
A few days after Christmas...we do it on the day our bee meets...each person attending brings at least one leftover food that their family is tired of...and a gift they really dont want to be traded off.
First we share a dinner of the leftovers and of course many of them are just awesome treats that we all enjoy because we have not been eating them for days...Preferably its served on leftover paper plates...you know those odd plates that accumulate from various parties...perhaps with birthday cups for the wine....
Next the real fun begins...a Chinese gift exchange of the regifted presents....I got a Kazoo last year...I wonder who the lucky recipient of the Kazoo will be this year...In case you dont know how a Chinese gift exchange works...this is how. Participants draw a number 1- however many people brought presents. The first person picks a wrapped present...and unwraps it. #2 can either steal #1's present OR pick a new one from under the tree....this continues till all the presents are gone...sometimes the presents are great...like who needs several Christmas pitchers other times they are silly like the aforementioned Kazoo...
Try it...fun way to clean out the fridge and the closet!!
