What’s a girl to do when the snow’s a-blowin’ and the wind’s a-howlin’ and a girls’ night is long overdue? Why, host a good old-fashioned pajama party of course!
Our hot cocoa bar featured a stove-top pot of creamy, homemade hot chocolate, southern comfort, melt-away peppermint sticks, lavender buds, chocolate-dipped peppermint marshmallow peeps, homemade peppermint marshmallows in holiday shapes, whipped cream, red and white striped straws, and glittery red dipping sugar for the rims of the mugs. We also had buttered popcorn, candy canes, peppermint ice cream, homemade snickerdoodle cookies stuffed with chocolate-sea-salt-caramel, cranberries, grapefruit, brie and crackers, strawberry infused vodka and sweet moscato wine.
We ate and drank and talked and laughed and listened attentively to Jen’s highly dramatic reading of a most excellent children’s book entitled A Very Fuddles Christmas and played a vicious round of competitive card games and tons of silly mini-games on the Wii…all in the warmth of good company, our slippers, and pajamas.
What a blast! Every day I am so thankful to have such wonderful friends here. What kind of a girls night should we do next?
