Plan A Cozy Winter Saturday Night Party

Having a party in the winter can be just as fun as summer parties because when it's cold, the focus tends to be on a small, intimate gatherings rather than a backyard full of people. Winter is when people are looking for things to do and good friends get together. Does this Spark an idea?


Instructions


1. Invite a small group of people, like your closest circle of friends, your church small group, or two or three couples.


2. While mellow, good for ambience-type music is playing softly in the background, serve savory food such as beef or chicken stew, spaghetti, or chili. Have appetizers on hand like a cheese dip, meatballs, or bite-sized smoked sausages. For dessert, homemade chocolate chip or butter cookies are always a hit, or, because it's a small group of people, it's fine to have a layer cake.


Warm beverages are totally cool for winter parties. Serve hot apple cider or juice with cinnamon sprinkled on top, hot cocoa-with milk, not water, and with real cocoa powder, not that mix stuff-or warm, spiced wine.


3. Play games like UNO, Pictionary, Twister, even good old-fashioned Charades.


4. Watch a fun, winter-themed movie like Snow Day or Last Holiday.
