Executive Board Dinner
Yesterday I used some 50% off coupons at Michaels and bought some melting chocolate and scored a 100 piece cookie cutter set for 1./2 off with the coupon making it $5. I needed a flamingo cookie cutter and there was one it this set! I am making flamingo cookies and decorating them to put in goodie bags for the members.
So I came home and began making sugar cookie dough. Then I baked a huge chocolate chip cookie and decorated it as a prize for one of the members to win. I placed it on a beautiful serving dish that the member got to keep as well.
Then I drizzled melting chocolate on strawberries. I baked the flamingo cookies and decorated them. Then I put all of the goodie bags together. I had a great Sangria I was bringing along with fun keepsake margarita glasses with flamingo stir sticks. I got so much done. and left the house at 7pm.
I got to the Spaghetti Factory and starting setting up. I put strawberries witht he flamingo picks and place them in the margarita glasses. I had gotten cute flamingo table decorations. Can you tell the theme of the party was flamingos and end of summer bash?
Every member on the executive board was invited as a thank you for serving on the board of the moms club. I wanted to make them feel special and I spoiled them! They all ordered their meals and we started off with fresh yummy bread and then our salads followed by our pasta dish. Then I handed out a gift to each mom. They each received different gift certificates to restaurants. They were all thrilled. They really enjoyed the Sangria. It was so much fun!
I left my house in a disarry and chaos. I got home at 10:30pm and cleaned the house till midnight. I was exhausted!
