A friend sent me an invitation recently that not only was a welcome surprise, but it also made me smile. She’s sponsoring an “AH SO” get together. What does AH SO mean? How about this….ANOTHER HOLIDAY SEASON OVER! The best part is “you make the rules” and just enjoy yourself. Tired of cooking?… Make it Potluck! Have you run out of booze…Make it BYO! Want to get rid of a ghastly gift while enjoying a few laughs?… Host a Round Robin Grab Bag! You get the point. During Winter, especially while we’re enjoying this “snow free zone,” take advantage of holiday free preparation, camaraderie, and good times in an easy to manage way. P.S. It’s also a guilt free way of sharing the “extra desserts” that may still be in your midst. Most of all, have fun, enjoy friends, family, colleagues, neighbors and let us know what special “tweaks” you add to the idea.
