Pepping Up Ycur Holiday Parlies
What's Christmas without a
party?
A party of course, can be any
thing from a friend dropping in
for a cup of punch to a full-scale
ball
Smce people’s spirits are keyed
to the season’s whirl of activities,
parties where good food and drink
are dispensed can be brightened
by several Christmas games.
Games can include charades,
finding as many words as possible
in some long Christmas word like
“mistletoe,” and carol-singing.
Always have cookies, stuffed
dates, nuts or candies setting
around for guests to nibble on.
When friends come in to help
trim the tree, give them fruit or
nut cake, sliced right in front of
them.

night services, or after the last
ornament is on the tree is usually
a buffet meal. One traditional
menu is oyster stew, a relish tray
and a dessert such as pecan pie.
Lots of hot coffee, of course.
If you don’t plan food, you will
have a punch bowl—even when its
contents are nothing stronger than
a fruit punch made with ginger
ale. A punch bowl is one of the
easiest and most gracious ways to
offer guests Christmas cheer.
Above all, don’t forget the child
ren.
Children’s parties should include
simple, familiar foods easy to eat.
Their games should let off steam
at the beginning of the party and
calm them down before they eat
or leave for home.
For adult or child, full-course
meal or just punch, the hostess—
or host—must remember: it does
n’t have to be elaborate to be, fun.
And don’t wear yourself out in
preparation to the point where you
can’t enjoy the party yourself. A
gracious hostess fully enjoying her
guestes makes a party more suc
cessful than all the extra flourishes
to decorations of food.
