We hosted dinner and game night last weekend. I made the main dish and desserts – yes, desserts with an “s” – while the other girls provided sides and munchies.
The aforementioned girls: Heather, Chelle and Vanessa.
And our boys. Apparently Jeremy didn’t get the stripes memo.
My main dish offering was Crockpot BBQ Beer Chicken. It was a hit with everyone.
Bruce doctored his sandwich up with coleslaw and chips.
The boys ate in the kitchen, and we girls gathered round the dining room table.
Once our tummies were filled, it was time to invited the boys into the dining room with us for some Oh Hell.
The game was interrupted by a fun app that Jeremy showed to us. More on that later.
We broke for dessert a few hands in. There was Triple Chocolate Mousse Pie, Nutter Butter Ice Cream based on Amanda’s two-ingredient ice cream, and a strawberry Jell-O layered dessert that I concocted.
Mmm, three layers of chocolate.
Dessert in the den.
Refueled by sugar, we finished our game.
I had a few drinks with the game, which were kinda like Mary Poppins’s spoonful of sugar with medicine. It appears I was pretty excited to be on clean-up duty once everyone headed out.
It was another fun night with friends, one more good memory to add to the mix.
(You don’t really think I’m just going to skim over THREE desserts like I did here without giving you more pictures and way too many details, did you? Sounds like a Friday post to me.)
