Thinking about what to do for my 40th birthday. Idea 1: Garden party.
I might have celebrated my 37th birthday two months ago exactly, but it's never too early to plan my next big bash - my 40th birthday! What follows now and a few blogs in, is ideas that I have for the various parties that I can plan and host.Let's start with a garden party. Theme: USA.
The menu would be bbq food - Texas style. I then need to get all the sides. We're talking potato salad, garlic bread, mac & cheese, baguettes, condiments, salad and what else is present for a good USA bbq. I think I will need to contact a company that rents out fridges for parties, and explain that I am turning 40, so I might need two of the biggest fridges they have. Then I'm gonna head to Germany to buy all the soda and beer I can haul. By the time I am 40, I will have a driving license. I will then rent or buy a van, and fill it up with said soda and beer. Forget buying it here, it's WAY too expensive.
I NEED to have a party where there is spared NO expense on anything - at all! If I start saving up now, I should have plenty of money to host a fantastic birthday bash.
Anyway, that's the food and drinks situation planned. Next up is decoration. complete with country music, hay bales and other pure USA. That means dress code. I just need to narrow down what that's gonna be. I am thinking a somewhat laid back dress code. No suit/tie, dress or fancy clothing. It's a bbq, and things WILL get messy, food wise. Getting bbq sauce on a white shirt is not gonna end well.
I might actually invite an American friend over, so I get everything just right! Fingers crossed if that can happen!
Next idea is coming up later!
