Catching up

     My family and I had a good Christmas. I had another party on the 21st. It was a general Christmas theme. We had bagel pizza wreaths, red velvet cupcakes with mint frosting, salad, and holiday iced tea. To start I stuck stickers that said various Christmas things on everyone's back. They had to guess what they were by asking yes or no questions. We also played the box game. To play the box game all you have to do is wrap up something small, and then put it in a series of boxes(1 box inside of another). Then pick a number like 4 and tell everyone. Take turns rolling 1 or 2 dice until someone rolls the number. When someone rolls the number they have to put gloves on and try to unwrap the gift. Everyone else keeps rolling. If someone else rolls the number then they take a turn. You keep going until someone has unwrapped the gift. They win. I also got everyone stockings instead of goody bags. I filled them with things they might want before Christmas(for example:I got Sage some Christmas socks so she could wear them on Christmas morning). I made clues for them to hunt for there stockings.
Today I made ricotta,provolone,spinach,ham,and salami pie.
