Happy Holiday Weekend!

Thursday, July 02, 2009
 
July 4th holiday- for most of us- means another day off from work.  Hooray!  So what are we going to do? When I was kid we had a lot of tradition around this holiday.  There was always a parade to watch, a picnic in the park with family, and then the big event - the Fireworks!  
Now that we're adults it's a little more spontaneous, but I'm sure there will be cookout. Okay, hot dogs are fine, but maybe FK can help us with some more creative and health recipe ideas.  In keeping with a healthy theme lets include some fun activities to keep the body moving.  How about biking, hiking, swimming, a volley ball game on the beach.  
Whatever you decide to do- relax, enjoy and stay safe!

Progressive Party- a Bipartisan Bash

Progressive Party- a Bipartisan Bash

Entertaining 101- how do you host a dinner party and not do all of the work? Plan a progressive party (and we are talking politics) and divide up each course with a few of your friends. Its fun to have a theme for your evening- with the upcoming election we chose a political theme that has a menu that’s as diverse our candidates! This theme is sure to make for a lively discussion. To ensure that the party stays bipartisan serve a menu item from each candidate’s home state.


Here is what we’re planning:
Appetizer: Delaware Clam Chowder with oyster crackers
Entree course: A choice of “Moose Burgers” or Chicago Style Hot Dogs with condiments
Southwest (Arizona) Black bean and Corn Salad
Dessert: All American ice cream parfait- strawberries and blueberries

This type of party saves stress, money and time while also allowing each of the hosts to enjoy most of the evening- once their course is done they can relax! It is a major cost-saving way to entertain and it allows the entertainers to focus on one aspect of the meal instead of stressing over a whole evening’s worth of food and entertainment. Its entertainment alone to travel from house to house with friends- it works best where you can walk in a neighborhood or have it in your apartment/condo complex.
