New Year's Eve Party Planning


I'm writing to you from my couch...the place I haven't left in two days. Ugh. So I'm watching my house get progressively messier, but I can't complain. Carl is taking care of me quite well! But at least there is one thing my planner brain can do from the couch- menu plan for our NYE Party.

Last year, we didn't host, so instead we had 8 of our friends over for a roast dinner before heading to the party. This time around, we are the hosts.

Beverages:
Beer
Cider & Captain Morgan
Soda
Champagne Toast at Midnight

Snacks:
Mini Tacos served with salsa and sour cream
Mini Egg Rolls served with sweet and sour sauce
Chili Cheese Chip Dip
