Fun “Bar” Ideas For Your Next Party

Posted on November 24, 2013 by admin

You can really get creative with your next large party by adding a “bar” to your party. I am not talking a bar for alcoholic beverages (although that may be available as well), but I mean a bar offering a type of food or drink that guests can customize to make it perfect for them.

Easter is a Great Time to Entertain Family and Friends, but Why the Egg?

Posted on March 30, 2013 by admin

Whether you are Christian or not, Easter has become a holiday that encompasses much more than religion. Eggs and the Easter bunny actually don’t have anything to do with Christianity at all. In fact, the term Easter is thought to have been derived from the name of a Germanic pagan goddess, Eostre.
